War, Politics, and Life by Bruce Maulden
What we really need in these anxious, shit-hitting-the-fan times: An afternoon’s moment within the next couple of hours. And a particular doomscroll on how America is getting fucked, and fucked in a hurry. We’re currently cracking up, way off the rails, and displaying sad, harrowing signs we’ve maybe reached the end of the track for…
Sunshine and clear-blue skies just past noon Wednesday here in California’s Central Valley. Nice weather for an insane presidential election — way-beyond grasping crazy how close this race is even in the presence of someone that’s not only a deplorable, asshole piece of shit, but also freaking nuttier-than-a-fruitcake and freaking slobbering crazy — and it…
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…
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…
Clear, bright, sunshine and way-pleasant temps this near-noon Friday here in California’s Central Valley — nicer here than the southern part of the state where wildfires and earthquakes are causing a shitstorm of anxiety. The shaking continues with a 3.4 magnitude quake near Malibu early this morning (yesterday a 4.7 in about the same spot)…
Blistering hot just short of the noon-hour Wednesday here in California’s Central Valley, and has been the whine for days, we’re in the middle of a heat-domed boil burbling across not only my state but scalding the entire US southwest — records will fall (you can count on it) the next week or so. The…
Breezy and warm this late-afternoon Saturday here in California’s Central Valley — a nice respite from the heat-domed boil that has been part of being alive in these parts the last couple of weeks (supposedly, the ‘boil’ moves to the eastern US next week) and we’re scheduled to stay this way for a few days.…
Bright sunshine in hot air just past the noon hour Tuesday here in California’s Central Valley — we were hoping to make it to Wednesday before the heat set in this week, but no way. Temps are at triple digits for already today, and not a stir-wisp of a breeze either. Weather the heat with…
Clear skies and super-bright sunshine this Tuesday late afternoon here in California’s Central Valley — despite the chilled-airish breezes all day (temps in the usually-warmish mid-70s), summer-like shit will supposedly take hold at the end of this week. We’re forecast to be in the 90s by Friday; unless the wind keeps its cool-down effect going,…
Terrifying shit for a noonish Friday — news dump literally. A couple of items off the T-Rump’s fourth day in New York on that ‘hush money‘/financial campaign-fraud case, one a terrifying outside-the-courtroom incident: Strange, more-than-meets-the-eye news clip. Some muted details: Eyewitness News talked to a witness who said the man was holding papers in Collect…
