War, Politics, and Life by Bruce Maulden
Beyond Ukraine this morning, but still on just how extremely awful are Republicans and why we’ll probably never get a true handle on the COVID-19 pandemic. This is a problem not of the so-called, and touted ‘misinformation’ tactic, but of plain-old out-n-out lying. Vaccines with boosters prevent serious illness, and even death — pure fact.…
Once again, back again this near-mid-day Tuesday here in California’s Central Valley — expecting some rain this afternoon, but this is drought infested lands, so I don’t expect much. Despite not feeling real good, at least I don’t feel real bad. The cold/flu/whatever/maybe COVID I’ve been experiencing the last 10 days or so has become…
(Illustration found here). Anxiety-inducing news out of eastern Europe this Saturday (a throwback to the ’90s, or maybe the 1930s?) is the mad escalation of the dustup/invasion of Ukraine by Vlad’s Russian army — as the image above notes, the largest country on the continent against the second-largest seems right. Although I’d been figuring Putin…
Daylight fading as we approach early-evening Thursday here in California’s Central Valley, a fine finish to a day that started with a deep-gray fog, which burned off quickly into bright sunshine and warm temperatures — another one of those about-as-good-as-it-gets, though, way-early in the year. Weather like this usually doesn’t arrive until at least next…
After performing sub-level work on a continuous basis, Fox News‘ Peter Doocy today appeared once again on the receiving end of reality inspired by obvious sense and truth — Joe Biden slipped into the common-man repertoire in calling out a stupid son of a bitch as a stupid son of a bitch. InterWebs went daffy:…
A most-disheartening slip of events this morning in DC — just a tiny time space after the House passed voting-rights legislation, and thus, sending it to the Senate, and shortly before Joe Biden was at arrive on Capitol Hill for a push on the measure’s passage, nefarious nit-twit Kyrsten Sinema blew the shit all over…
A way-politicalized, straight-on clip that’s now all over the InterWebs since this morning, sure you’ve probably already seen it — I’m just going to pop it here where I can click on the post (especially from my iPad) see it again and again — right on the bulbous, enflamed nose: There’s more in the air…
My youngest daughter called me from Minnesota today one year ago. She sounded taken-way-aback, and a bit frightful — “Are you seeing what’s on the TV right now,” she nearly cried. “Duh!” I quickly replied. There was really nothing else to go with, no real usable words to conjure up an explanation for such a…
Thick fog covering the just-turning-dark this Wednesday here in California’s Central Valley — a depressing look to say the way-minimum, but that’s the current motif seemingly embedded in our psyche nowadays. All looney tunes with the despondency, too, which makes it shit worse. Another piece of weird for this already weird new year — lightning…
Fading sunshine and cold air this early-evening Tuesday here in California’s Central Valley, as we claw closer to the holiday drop zone, now just four days away. Christmas might be a little stand-offish this year. Pandemic peaking (NBC News a couple of hours ago): The latest surge that is driving up the number of Covid…
