War, Politics, and Life by Bruce Maulden
Some sense of a feeling. So far, this particular year has been another case of the ‘fours.’ Apparently, from what I can gather from within myself as I age (76 next month), the years of my life ending in ‘4‘ have had some special, striking significance — except 1954, as I was too young to…
Clear skies and on the coolish-side temperatures — comparatively speaking — here a bit after the noon hour Friday in California’s Central Valley as for the first time in a shitload of space we’re under 90 degrees as a high today, shaping up for finally a full onslaught of the fall season. Weather shifts are…
It’s sunny and comfortable this Wednesday early afternoon in California’s Central Valley — maybe autumn is finally here to stay. Meanwhile, the T-Rump is not only a lying asshole, but way-unaware he’s fully and completely dumb as a charred tree stump: Details via The New Republic a couple of hours ago: During an hour-and-a-half-long interview…
Clear, bright skies full of sunshine shortly after the noon hour Tuesday here in California’s Central Valley as summer days in the fall are maybe slacking off a bit as we make it into a real, actual autumn. Supposedly under triple-digit temperatures today (for the first time in a goodly while) and a reported drop…
Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the water: Details nutshell via the Guardian this afternoon: The latest system, Tropical Storm Milton, formed in the Gulf of Mexico on Saturday. Forecasters expect the storm to quickly strengthen into a hurricane and rush toward Florida in the next few days. The National…
Another summer-day heated attempt in October this near-noon Friday here in California’s Central Valley — a big difference in the warmth index, though, is simple: It’s autumn! Add an index of simplicity, too, with great economic news this morning with a robust jobs report, giving a bounce to Kamala Harris and an elbow in the…
Hot and getting hotter shortly past the noon hour Wednesday here in California’s Central Valley — actual living boils down to whether we can weather the weather. The same goes for the T-Rump. Except the unhinged madness is getting worse. Blubbering incoherently yesterday in Milwaukee on climate change (MSNBC): “Global warming wasn’t working because the…
Another day in the seemingly endless-summer-days-during-the-fall-season syndrome this late-afternoon Monday in California’s Central Valley, as so it’s been the last near-couple-of-weeks — clear-blue skies, glaring, bright sunshine coupled with warmish-close-to-heavy-hot temperatures (in the low 90s as I work the laptop keyboard), though, it being autumn and all, this environmental scenario feels just a bit tempered…
Intense, graphic warnings on tomorrow are profiled and presented today. Beyond the horrible images of Hurricane Helene now washing across media screens — those drone perspectives are a nightmare aren’t they, kind of creates a disjointed dreamscape similar to a surreal special-effects/CGI-laden Roland Emmerich movie, though, this is actually reality revealing Americans being violently overwhelmed…
Dazzling-bright sunshine and comfortable air this near-noon Thursday here in California’s Central Valley — welcome to the shift of the seasonal knob. And speaking of knobs, the T-Rump’s criminal asshole ways should be on display starting today in a DC courtroom. Special Prosecutor Jack Smith is unloading a supposedly 180-page filing this morning comprised of…
