War, Politics, and Life by Bruce Maulden
Bright sunshine and coolish temperatures just past the noon hour Friday here in California’s Central Valley — weekend ahead with nothing but shit on the news cycle. Inside this inkling of what’s ahead, the keywords are cruel chaos. Beyond Israel and Ukraine, America also has its own shitstorm to play through presented by the Republican…
A way-autumn late-afternoon Thursday here in California’s Central Valley — sunshine and cool temperatures — as most-likely heavy heat of summer has finally left our weather and now it’s a fall into winter. A routine of the normal. Not so in DC where the Republican-led House is in utter, idiotic chaos due to the shit-for-brains…
(Illustration found here.) Out of the depth of the original deed Joe Biden correctly called “an act of sheer evil,” came a noted shitload of acts all carved out of the all-encompassing evil aspects chewed and clawed from the most-wicked history of humanity. Indeed, Hamas has proved nothing, other than a heartless, cruel legacy. And…
Overcast with a chilly breeze this early-evening Monday here in California’s Central Valley — a quick turnaround from the heat, a nice break. Not on a break are journalists covering the horror of war now in Israel and the Gaza Strip — even close calls: Nutshell after the scary ‘fuck‘ moment — per The Hill:…
Summer sense in early autumn this late-afternoon Sunday here in California’s Central Valley — the temperature now just a little under a hundred degrees, the outside air heavy with heat, creating colors seemingly scraped from some exceptionally odd MC Eisner//Van Gogh oil painting. A little poetic, non-aesthetical bullshit there to immediately instigate a hope-filled grin.…
Another sudden burst of brutal warfare this morning along the Israel/Gaza border baffles the sense of how shitty Bibi Netanyahu and his government are in actually governing — maybe way, way-too close to the Republican brand here in the States. One of several potent points by Robert Farley at Lawyers,Guns&Money this afternoon: ‘The intelligence failure…
Bright sunshine coupled with temperatures in the high 90s this late-afternoon Friday here in California’s Central Valley as we’re apparently experiencing a seemingly out-of-the-blue shot of summer for the next couple of days — after a mild early autumn the last few weeks we were jolted back into hot-heat yesterday (temps in the low 90s)…
Soft, warm sunshine this late-afternoon Tuesday here in California’s Central Valley, another example of a really comfortable fall season — so far. Weather-wise OK, but not so ‘comfortable‘ overall being in the nowadays — such as this afternoon. In a short interval of less than a couple of hours (an attempt at a nap) news…
Early evening Monday here in California’s Central Valley and the horrid life continues unabated. Especially in the repellent antics of the T-Rump (The Daily Beast): A visibly angry Donald Trump appeared in a New York courtroom for the start of a bank fraud trial that has already sentenced his real estate empire to death. A…
(Illustration: ‘Jimmy And Rosalynn Carter,’ art print by illustrator Tom Bachtell, and found here.) Today Jimmy Carter turns 99 — he’s celebrating along with Rosalynn down in Georgia seven months after entering hospice care, supposedly considered on his last legs. And in reality, much like the best of the Carter life, he’s gone beyond all…
