Faded-yellow sunshine peeks out occasionally between off-white clouds this late-afternoon Saturday here in California’s Central Valley — cool temperatures, too, in nice pre-summer kind of weather. In the horror of the news cycle lately, deep back-burner stories are forgotten, especially something like the shadow-elephant-in-the-room — climate change. And according to new research released this past…

Overcast and breezy but still hot as heck this early-evening Thursday here in California’s Central Valley.

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.

Really shitty…

by Emily Dickinson, History, Literary, Media, music, Politics

End of another weekend, and close to the end of a month, plus, close to the heat of summer — not so bad outside this late-afternoon Sunday here in California’s Central Valley, warmish, but breezy enough to be comfortable. Next week, though, a rolling-thunder heatwave is expected, maybe triple-digit temperatures by Tuesday/Wednesday. In rebellion against…

by Crime, Donald Trump, History, Lying, Orwellian, Politics, Republicans

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.

by History, Journalism, Literary, Media, Orwellian, Politics, Republicans

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…
