War, Politics, and Life by Bruce Maulden
Grayish-cloud overcast this late-afternoon Friday here in California’s Central Valley — and way-cooler, too, then the previous few days. Supposedly, we’re in a small cool space until next week when the fire of summer is rekindled again. I don’t look forward to the next 90 days or so, weather/environment/outside ambiance is concerned, and not just…
Overcast and breezy but still hot as heck this early-evening Thursday here in California’s Central Valley. Away from the InterWebs for a good while today, I didn’t catch the initial reports of a law enforcement clusterfuck in the handling of the massacre Tuesday at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Tx, and then during my afternoon…
Boiling-hot outside this late-afternoon Wednesday here in California’s Central Valley — reportedly 108-degrees just before 6 p.m. PDT — and it’s still days away from official summer. Shit-already-on-a-overheated-stick. In the wake of the massacre yesterday at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas, the normal shit-stuffing by Republicans has grown in size and scope. Really shitty…
Another sad, horror-of-guns in America today (via The Washington Post): ‘Eighteen children and three adults were killed in a shooting at Robb Elementary, Texas Sen. Roland Gutierrez (D) said Tuesday on CNN. He said he learned of the higher death toll from a briefing with the Texas Rangers.‘ Initial reports from earlier and a disheartening…
Windy and warmish this late-afternoon Friday here in California’s Central Valley — another day in a series this week in seemingly a last grasp of comfortable weather before the seasonal heat-blast. We’re forecast for high temps ahead, maybe into triple-digits by the middle of next week as a preview to a hot-as-shit summer that’s waiting…
In the massive letters of law broken by the T-Rump down through the ages, especially even consisting in his brief four-year tour of duty as POTUS, breaking laws, up-ending ethics, and generally being a complete asshole to everything and everybody, this Friday morning, another close-to-crime story cranks into the cycle. Drifter grifter all day long:…
Breezy but still hot this late-afternoon Thursday here in California’s Central Valley — another day in the life. Scrolling the news continues the flashdance of Republicans being nasty about everything, even when withholding baby formula from babies, and showcasing exactly what hypocrisy and shitheel combination looks like — we’re in for a real shitfest if…
Heavy-air hot this late-afternoon Wednesday here in California’s Central Valley — we’re on a schedule now to greater and greater temperatures with days starting to average at least 90-degrees in the shade. In the sun is a way-different story. Direct sunshine in a flat-anvil of a valley creates a scorching heat, nearly unbearable in high…
As we approach the midterms, the biggest obstacle in the way of democracy being upheld is the real rule of journalism — tell the actual, f*cking truth. A nifty, right-on piece directed at the root matter of journalism, which I originally missed/overlooked with all the other shit filling the in-box of the nowadays (h/t tweet…
(Image by illustrator Randall Enos, and found here). Sign of life, maybe? Merrick Garland has been acting quiet the last year on any kind of action on the T-Rump criminal works, and many had figured he’d been napping this whole time. Even despite this in March: ‘On his first anniversary as attorney general, Merrick Garland…
