Although the CDC released easier guidelines today in lifestyle choices for fully-vaccinated folks, the playbook continues it’s still dangerous for COVID-19, and even now, a year later, we still don’t know a shitload of stuff about it: ‘ “As more people get vaccinated, levels of Covid-19 infection decline in communities, and as…
In this age of bullshit out in the open, our media is not doing a real good job of reporting on the reality of what’s actually occurring in front of our collective faces. The airwaves and InterWebs allow ‘alternative facts‘ to play out in the same fashion as genuine/verified facts, like a lie needs space,…
In context of this particular Thursday, the news cycle is getting old. Generally the same daily shit twisted as if in a Twilight Zone-influenced-Groundhog Day episode, and then repeats the repeating. Against the grain, though, we must continue to move forward. However, I did have a nice experience due to a couple videos that crossed…
One of the wonders of the T-Rump era is how easily a shitload of people become nasty supplicants to the orange turd, and seem to cower in keeping the Big Lie glaring and loud. In one aspect, the Big Lie is their only course, yet don’t these people have any kind of a conscience: They’re…

In this social-media world, a goodly-portion of users are drawn like ‘rats’ in posting shit on the varied media platforms in a pattern similar to ‘reward learning,’ seeking approval in ‘likes.’ A new study indicates we’re tied into the most-basic instincts — via NYU.edu this past Friday: “These results establish that social…

A shitoad of recent movies don’t have opening credits anymore, they go…
Beautiful late-afternoon Tuesday here in California’s Central Valley — sunshine and warm temps starting about noon following a foggy, chilly morning. Weather is way-oblique in its own existence, fog to sunshie, cold to hot, sometimes in minutes, and sometimes — maybe most-of-the-time — has an original game plan, too, and we humans are out of…
(NOTE: This post the first-ever from an outside contributor, or someone not me. Hopefully, many more to come). (Illustration found here). By Eva M. Several days ago I was skimming the headlines when one caught my eye that felt, as my dad used to say, like a slap in the face with a cold wet…
Short evening as I’m making calzones for my daughter’s birthday. During dinner we have a TV-streaming routine and currently we’re about to end the first season of “Snowpiercer,” and it’s a dandy. Except it’s pretty intense and we’re only good for one episode a night: And we then switch to something way-lightly — for awhile…
Despite being out of office nearly a month, the T-Rump continues to gnaw at the bowels as he did today, picking up chunks of the news cycle, but still not in a good way.
