Laughing stock in government — the entire Republican party is a whipped bunch of T-Rump ass-kissers who have now proven they can’t govern even with an agenda pre-set for them — the border deal, the cursed ‘impeachment‘ of Alejandro N. Mayorkas, the homeland security secretary, the Israel aid package, all shitstormed failures. All in a…
Left-Coast weather continues to be the closest-biggest big news item of this weekend as a massive, wet storm continues unchecked: ‘“The heaviest main band of the rain looks to stall now over L.A.

Hanging loose this mid-day Sunday here in California’s Central Valley — another inside day with rain and more rain. I wanted to share this since last week, but never got around to it. Recalls the days of actual physical print media and the typeface design of the world of reading, books, and magazines, in fact…
Low, thick, gray clouds and cold air this late-afternoon Saturday here in California’s Central Valley – once again we’re awaiting another ‘atmospheric river‘ (AR) to come crashing onto us, bringing rain and more rain.

A tizzy of a dump for a Friday — T-Rump finally getting some longtime-coming comeuppance for being a lying-ass, cruel, shitty asshole (NYT): Former President Donald J. Trump was ordered by a Manhattan jury on Friday to pay $83.3 million to the writer E. Jean Carroll for defaming her in 2019 after she accused him…
Clear skies and a bit of fading sunshine this early-evening Tuesday here in California’s Central Valley — today a respite from the rain and cold, which is reportedly set to return tomorrow and then on-and-off rest of the month. Weathering nature is maybe somewhat easier than doing weathering on life in America. Today was primary…
Sixty years ago last week a political-oriented, “hard news” photographer with the UK’s Dailey Express was upset after being reassigned to cover The Beatles in Paris, but eventually ended up traveling with them to America and became an inside witness to ‘Beatmemania‘ — highlighted by an Ed Sullivan performance: The photographer, Harry Benson, recalled that…
Fog and coldness once again this late-afternoon Friday here in California’s Central Valley — close to finishing out an average day set in a not-average age. Also end of the fabled work week on a note of surreal images of a time of pure weirdness. Apparently, not a heavy-duty Friday news dump today, thus we…
Deep ‘tule fog‘ this late-afternoon Thursday here in California’s Central Valley — a normal day in a becoming more abnormal of a new year.
