In the status of unknowns nowadays, one major blank space is how AG Merrick Garland and the DOJ will prosecute/or handle the asshole-MAGA hatters arrested from off the Jan. 6 insurrection/riot at the US Capitol — and the look of the situation is not really encouraging. Time is of the freedom-loving essence: ‘Attorney General Garland…
As we approach a year after the election, T-Rump’s push on the Big Lie continues to burn brightly and coupled with the shameless anti-democracy shenanigans of the entire Republican party puts America at the end of a short fuse — the assault on our constitutional government norms is led by a vile, horrid orange turd…
Sunshine and clear skies this late-afternoon Tuesday here in California’s Central Valley as we return to normalcy after a brief-flair of a storm this weekend and yesterday — many parts of the state were slammed by heavy downpour and wind with record rainfalls recorded in several spots, but the Valley pretty-much missed the boat. However,…

I know, I know there are murderers out there, rapists, child abusers/pedophiles, killers in mass, yet most of these-pieces-of-shit are hopefully confined to a small space of horror-infliction and not in a…
Partly cloudy with an occasional glimpse of sunshine here in California’s Central Valley — our version of the first big storm of the season was quick and short with hard rain ending this morning.

Sprinkling a bit this late-afternoon Sunday here in California’s Central Valley as we await the oncoming gush of rain off maybe the biggest set of storms to hit the state in years — some forecasts call for up to 10 inches in various areas with the north supposedly getting the full blast. Here in the…
Overcast this late-afternoon Saturday here in California’s Central Valley, a set-up for the massive rainstorms coming tomorrow and lasting through Monday — an early-in-the-season ‘atmospheric river‘ is expected to dump 1.5-to-2-inches of rain on us here in the lowlands, snow and even wetter in the foothills and mountains. We’re duly warned: All that rain will…
A lot of DC news today, but most-likely one which will have repercussions both good and bad down the line if the way forward is through justice and accountability and not ‘sitting president’ bullshit. In a House vote, Steve Bannon was held to be contemptible: Details per The Washington Post late this afternoon: The House…
(Illustration: ‘Mammoths from the Ice Age,’ 1969 (gouache on paper), by Angus McBride, and found here). Overcast and maybe a bit on the warm side this late-afternoon Wednesday here in California’s Central Valley — rain could be coming. Meanwhile, up on the state’s north coast, a “bomb cyclone” system will strike this weekend, with advance…
Sunny and nice this late-afternoon Tuesday here in California’s Central Valley, weather as an indicator of living. Meanwhile far to the East, the House select committee on the Jan. 6 insurrection/riot calls contempt for Steve Bannon — the full House will vote on it supposedly on Thursday — and the T-Rump continued to show his…
