When I started this bog, ‘Compatible Creatures,’ more than 14 years ago — April 2007 — the near-daily absolute-main-topic was war. Two of them, in fact. Afghanistan at the time was closing in on its sixth…
A shitload of news already this Thursday, and we’re just at mid-morning right now. Most of the shit is depressing and there’s some weird mixed-in, though, as a country based on the optics we’ve in for a rough road ahead. Almost all of news items can be directly/indirectly traced to chaos/bullshit coming from the bowels…
Another Dad’s Day with good wishes usually passed from children to dads in glad tidings. However, if you’re an asshole who doesn’t understand families and children and the word, ‘happy,’ there’s trouble. This morning, in seemingly notable context, it seems if the T-Rump is actually working to become even worse a human being: A close-up…
Of course, the over-domineering news story this morning is the Joe Biden/Vladimir Putin meeting at an 18th-century stately home on Switzerland’s Lake Geneva, and according to most of the reports I’ve seen so far, seemed to go off without any kind noticable problem or controversy.

Although Joe Biden has called-out T-Rump by name before (albeit just, “this guy“), he went hard and heavy against the orange-turded asshole today in a press conference in Belgium, while also sticking GQPers-feet to the collective fire: Story via the Guardian‘s live blog this afternoon: In a wide-ranging press conference in Brussels, Joe Biden did…

After palling with chancellors, prime ministers and presidents involved with the three-day G7…
Even as a lot of Americans are being vaccinated against COVID-19 — I’ve been fully-vaxxed for two months — this pandemic will never be truly over until the world is fully-vaxxed, too, and until then life will be ‘not‘ normal. In fact, there’s been more COVID deaths in the six months of this year then…
Cool and breezy this Friday morning here in California’s Central Valley, loving the delay in the heated-summer days immediately ahead — and also grasping the pre-Friday news dump drop from last night, where it was disclosed Billy Barr’s DOJ subpoenaed Apple for data on a load of people, including Adam Schiff, Eric Swalwell, along with…
Mysteries yet not: WTF!! Shit comes forth from lying lips: And Joe responds on his way to his first POTUS trip abroad: And this for Joe Manchin being a asshole: Whoops-a-daisy: Per CNN earlier today: Fastly supports news sites and apps like CNN, the Guardian, the New York Times and many others. It also provides…
We’re under seige, and the call is coming from inside the house — Republicans and the end of America as we know it: Just to see how Americans have ‘come together’ — some polls on various notable subjects, results via Forbes yesterday afternoon: A poll from Quinnipiac University released Thursday found 59-percent of Americans do…
