War, Politics, and Life by Bruce Maulden
Approaching early-evening and darkness here this Monday in California’s Central Valley, and in the continuing plotline of the nowadays, it’s also near-upon 4 o’clock tomorrow morning in Ukraine. Beyond the death and destruction, this afternoon an ominous pile of future shit from China’s foreign minister Wang Yi, staying tight with Vlad Putin: ‘No matter how…
Again doomscrolling this afternoon to the music of Ukraine still afire, with the flames getting higher. And an update from the Guardian‘s live blog not too long ago — results about the same as yesterday, but further along in being worse: Russian forces stepped up overnight shelling of Ukrainian cities in the centre, north and…
Near noon Sunday in California’s Central Valley — even out here on the Left Coast, Ukraine is just a click or scroll away from the continuing horror of war. Vlad Putin and his boys are shown doing a bang-up job of displaying monster characteristics despite propaganda to the contrary back in Mother Russia. Control of…
Doomscrolling the Ukrainian news train this afternoon. A shitload of shit on the InterWebs, easily outperforming everything else. Especially poping news stories in the unique placement of the Ukrainian event as a social media platform all its own, and Vlad Putin being shown as an asshole who will eventually lose his misbegotten shit. All captured…
Couple of interesting Ukrainian-influenced news items — seemingly scenes from an action movie, but cast in real-time with real people playing out special–effects shit, creating huge fright reflected off tiny screens. Even an abrupt ambush: War-zone, near-miss must read: Terrifying dangerous drama divulged of journalist Stuart Ramsay and his team under attack outside the Ukrainian…
Approaching late morning and the noon hour this Friday here in California’s Central Valley — overcast with gentle sprinkles, a weather pattern known lately on the Left Coast (and other sections of the Western US) as a rainstorm. Reality in tiny droplets. Today another look at media in this crazed war-and-political theater period, and how…
Near a week now the fighting in Ukraine, still reeling from the staged, bloody-incompetent war waged by Vlad Putin’s Russian-named army — the outcast drum beats steady toward the way-obvious aggressor. However, a conflict as seen in real-time with real people in shit-on-a-stick real situations that are horribly dangerous and scary. Coverage of war maybe…
Just a few minutes after the noon hour Thursday here in California’s Central Vally, as the real-time exposition of the devastation/massacre in Ukraine continues slipshod nasty for another day. News just goes bad to worse. Now near-about dark over there. A reality-glimpse this morning into the midst of unchecked horror of one Ukrainian town: Nutshell…
Another Ukraine daily war episode — nearly a week’s worth now — and apparently from all indications the whole horrible affair could be nasty and long-lived until there’s an end or whatever nutcase Vlad Putin deems as an end, and the world titters on the tatters created by the action. Putin appears a number of…
Last night’s SOTU is now history, but Russians in Ukraine and Republicans in America keep clogging the news drain pipe this mid-day Wednesday in California’s Central Valley — warm again, too, feels like it’s getting warm all over the world. Enough of that shit, though, spot on — most-likely biggest news so far this morning…
