War, Politics, and Life by Bruce Maulden
In the scope of human events, it becomes near-about impossible to understand how vile and shitty people are when they continually disclose that they’re even worse than how shitty you figured they were at the outset. Yet then they twist a bit, display characteristics beyond-dreadful than the horrifically-bad you assumed just minutes earlier, thusly, you’re…
(Illustration: ‘Cherry Tree Blossoms in Washington DC,’ by Donna Tuten, and found here). In the onslaught of frightful items on the agenda of the nowadays, from COVID to racism to economic woes, the huge, massive elephant in the room (no, not the GOP’s repugnant replica) can easily be overlooked/overshadowed by these pressing issues, and that’s…
Here again a Friday. Lately, it seems Monday-thru-Friday whips past in a blur, the weekends slightly slower in time, a more soft few hours, but still clips past frighteningly quick. Right-exactly-now becomes history in a blink. And after a second of two, we’re suddenly a quarter ways into a once new year. And the news…
Another lopsided shit-event at the US Capitol this morning (AM here on the West Coast) when apparently some random guy tried to ram Capitol police with his car, then jumped out with a knife. Two cops were injured, one fatally, and the suspect was shot dead — just WTF: As the situation is developing, some…
Warm-bordering-on-hot this late-afternoon Thursday here in California’s Central Valley, with deep, yellow sunshine adding to the sense of heat — summer’s coming way-soon and it’s going to be long and hard. In the news, Republicans top the cycle again for being assholes and nasty-ass fuckers, emitting foul shit from leaning into The Big Lie to…
As the ‘normal‘ is made the new ‘abnormal‘ in this day-and-age, Joe Biden is taking the bull by the horns and moving this country in the right direction despite the over-stuffed spasms of Republicans, who are drowning in bile and ignorance without lifting a finger. Hence, this afternoon the first gathering of Joe’s team: Some…
Maybe for the first time in his long, repugnant life, the T-Rump could finally be in the legal shits, between tax/business shenanigans in New York (and elsewhere), his inciting an insurrection, and pending court cases of women he’s defamed, the asshole could see some good-time judgment. Just yesterday, the latest: Details via Law&Crime yesterday afternoon:…
Jolting Joe Biden continues on a roll as he’s expected to propose a $2 trillion infrastructure plan today during an event in Pittsburgh — supposedly the first of two parts, the ‘American Jobs Plan‘ would not only re-build our transportation system, but invest in care for elderly and disabled Americans, create more affordable housing, refurbish…
Beyond the George Floyd trial (actually, real title the Derek Chauvin murder trial), the biggest item to hit the news cycle today is the nasty shit on that nasty shit Matt Gaetz Gaetz has been an asshole a way-long time, and since he’s such a T-Rump bootlicker/ass-wipe, this is not really a surprise, though, it…
(Illustration: ‘Why Nurses Do What They Do,’ by Emily Thomas, and found here). Just I figured a long, ugly while ago, we’re far from being out of any kind of woods in conjuction with overcoming the crazy-ass COVID-19 pandemic, as mini-surges seem to be developing across various part of the US — and this despite…
