War, Politics, and Life by Bruce Maulden
Midday Friday here in California’s Central Valley, and a way-warm one already. According to WeatherUnderground, we’re sitting on 97-degrees right now, working to a reported high of 98 — hot tomorrow, too, into the high 90s again. Cooling by Monday, maybe down to the high 70s-80s. Cooling? Meanwhile, a view of an opposite for this…
(h/t Miss Cellania). A couple of items weirder than normal, and ghastly, too. Our life scenario seems to be edging in a general direction for a horrible situation-event to explode (even worse than right now), as per this account from The Washington Post this afternoon: The White House is seeking revisions to a document drafted…
Early-afternoon Tuesday here in California’s Central Valley, and the heat is already heating. A breeze does keep it down a bit, but only so much can be done. In the backyard again, and still nice in the shade — getting warm, though. (External Station — even mystic bamboo in the faded background). One conclusive result…
Saturday afternoon here in California’s Central Valley. Pleasant day overall, breezy and not bad. Considering. Blogging in the backyard again. Outside has become a habit, a quiet influence over a mental-screaming exasperation for our dour-looking predicament, watching a world disintegrate on that laptop seen below (also off an iPad). A high vexation point is the…
Little wonder we’re having trouble getting a handle on COVID-19 here in the US, bullshit is sinking the playing field, not leveling it (h/t BJ): Yet the assholes at Fox News shifted their views without missing a beat — this illogical spin-around seen in raw-time: In a world gone crazy and the search for reality…
While we seem to be going through an old Twilight Zone episode, or an updated Steven Soderbergh movie, the heartfelt sense really enabled an ancient clip off the classic “Scrubs” TV show from 2006 — life imitating gag-infested art. Who’d figured: Details via the Washington Post yesterday: As the dire consequences of the coronavirus outbreak…
A true explanation on the rage of the coronavirus (h/t tengrain): Really nothing else to be said… (Illustration: Pablo Picasso’s ‘Seated Pierrot,’ found here).
Another delightful post this afternoon from Alexandra Petri at the Washington Post: On Wednesday, the president sat behind the Resolute Desk and addressed the nation with soothing and accurate words about the coronavirus. Unfortunately none of the accurate things he said were soothing, and none of the soothing things he said were accurate. What do…
Time marches onward not necessarily forever it seems as the coronavirus is rapidly creating a nasty whirlwind across the globe, and forcing a dent in the historic spacetime reality of modern life. The COVID-19 is shifting the outlook from a lot of shit, and doing it quickly. Legally in Italy, where 1,000 people have died…
Although the irony is absolutely lost, the T-Rump claiming Joe Biden ‘“doesn’t know where he is, or what he’s doing” ‘ is way-remarkable in the context of the reality actually infused in our so-called president. In our current health predicament with the coronavirus, the T-Rump is an idiot, a dangerous idiot: For those of us…
