War, Politics, and Life by Bruce Maulden
Warm but not boiling hot this late-afternoon Sunday here in California’s Central Valley — a nice respite from the horror-heat of the last couple of days, though the Southwest US is still burning from that ‘heat dome‘ that saturated us starting last week. We’re still going to be hot and the air will get heavy…
In the contextual white-supremacist bullshit circulating in America nowadays, an incident in Idaho this afternoon contains a possible mirror to some shitty shit that could be forthcoming from white assholes who have guns and the whine of fright in their bowels of scary gay people: Details, of what little there is, from The Washington Post…
Now a day after the televised first hearing of the House Select Committee investigating the Jan. 6 insurrection/riot, all the data is in and it appears the session last night was a media success. All the lines were marked and all boxes checked — T-Rump is guilty as shit of sedition, and a goodly chunk…
Hot and getting hotter near noon Friday here in California’s Central Valley — heat dome it is with the current temps in the low 90s and a forecast for a high of 103-degrees by the afternoon. Summer spike surprise — not! Also hot this morning is the news cycle on the hearing last night by…
As the House Select Committee investigating the Jan. 6 insurrection/riot at the US Capitol begins public hearings this evening, the stage is set for a Prime Time, documentary-style explanation of who and how and why of the coup attempt. I don’t think there’s Watergate excitement in the hearing, but it will be good to have…
Summer explodes the environment: (Illustration: ‘Heat Dome’ across US Southwest and Pacific Coast this weekend, image found here). Overcast and though a bit warm, fairly comfortable outside here near noon Thursday in California’s Central Valley — it might be pleasant right now, but we’re expecting major heat later this afternoon, especially starting tomorrow and boiling…
In lieu of the Jan. 6 committee hearings starting tomorrow night, Jason Alexander has a way-good take on the entire scheme of things — and of the tweet of the moment: After the description of the whole freaky process of T-Rump and the insurrection, the best line: ‘“If there’s comedy in there it certainly doesn’t…
Hot and getting hotter this noonish-time Wednesday here in California’s Central Valley — weather the weather. And a way to handle the weather of news and weather itself (drought and summer) is TV shows/series that allow for an escape from all the shit that’s making us feel shitty, anxious, and distraught with the way this…
(Illustration found here). America might be entering a open-ended minority rule over the vast majority. The Republican party and right-winger voters are the minority, but the twist this November could change all that — a minority ruling the deep-set majority. As Republicans stand steadfast on guns, the vast majority of Americans — 70-percent of citizens…
Sunshine and breezy this near-midday Monday here in California’s Central Valley — if the wind dies down, however, it will turn hotter-than-shit. The wind is a major cooling-effect factor. Also hotter than shit is this week’s live, public hearings of the House Select Committee on the Jan 6 insurrection/riot at the US Capitol last year…
