Heavy-gray tule fog this near-mid-day Friday here in California’s Central Valley — thickest I think of the season so far and chilled wet, too, a contrast from the sunshine the last few days. Just a reminder of the time. Tweet of the moment: Especially with the vastness of the T-Rump’s blighted image as head of…
As of late, my posts in the afternoon seem to have more climate change news than other horror shit, from over-heating oceans to super-hot months to super-hot years, and yesterday another sweltering weather report, this one from down Argentina-way (Gizmodo): Ground temperatures climbed above 129 degrees Fahrenheit (54 degrees Celsius) in parts of Argentina this…
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…
Overcast and chilly this early-evening Wednesday here in California’s Central Valley — another gorgeous winter day until late in the afternoon, and fairly warm for the season this morning. Weathering the weather is nothing well-worth mentioning if you are careful. However, the governance landscape sucks because one of only two major political parties in this…
Once again going beyond the horror of America’s one-sided democracy workshop, we are moved by another dire report on our collapsing environment and worsening life situation — one more heads-up to a code-red warning light for a five-alarm fire which already might be unextinguishable.

Just turning dark this Sunday evening here in California’s Central Valley, a beautiful, sunshine-splashed day with some chilly temperatures earlier, but got warm in the dazzling sun. And news just to keep the future bright, a new variant discovered off the old variants — via Bloomberg News from yesterday: A strain of Covid-19 that combines…
Foggy and damp this Saturday evening here in California’s Central Valley — weathering the weather has always been a part of life’s story, except nowadays there’s an endgame included and it’s shitty. And climate-changing that weather is a heavy gas: Not a happy milestone, in fact this is serious, heavy shit — literally — via…
Life is getting a bit on the mental-breakdown side of the fencepost: Details via Yahoo News this morning: An overwhelming majority of Americans believe the U.S. is in the grips of a full-blown mental health crisis, according to a new USA TODAY/Suffolk University poll. Nearly two years into the COVID-19 pandemic, which brought a rise…
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…
