War, Politics, and Life by Bruce Maulden
So I’m not alone in not feeling all that happy about just about everything nowadays, not surprising. Except I’ve felt this way for decades, only more intense lately, though, for most Americans this past year has seemed to have been a turn-around bitch. There’s probably enough shit going on ‘out there’ to sadden anyone with…
Daylight fading as we approach early-evening Thursday here in California’s Central Valley, a fine finish to a day that started with a deep-gray fog, which burned off quickly into bright sunshine and warm temperatures — another one of those about-as-good-as-it-gets, though, way-early in the year. Weather like this usually doesn’t arrive until at least next…
In dangerous territory as we are right now, even butterflies appear in possible jeopardy: An e-mail from the National Butterfly Center was shared this morning at Daily Kos, explaining the shit-situation, pretty straight-forward and on point: We are writing to let you know the National Butterfly Center will be closed Friday, Jan. 28 – Sunday,…
(Illustration: Pablo Picasso’s mural,’ Guernica,’ found here). Tweaking the news cycle this Wednesday evening is an idiot rhyme: Breyer to retire. Since this morning, all the shit all the time is about Breyer’s announced retirement from the SCOTUS. Good to get some light in an otherwise dark-ass future. And the news will be inundated with…
After performing sub-level work on a continuous basis, Fox News‘ Peter Doocy today appeared once again on the receiving end of reality inspired by obvious sense and truth — Joe Biden slipped into the common-man repertoire in calling out a stupid son of a bitch as a stupid son of a bitch.

Another weekend coming to an end this early-evening Sunday here in California’s Central Valley, and, too, the first month of a new year is near-about gone already, maybe a preview of just how quickly 2022 will pass, slingshotting us into 2023 with the speed of a finger snap. Time seems to have acquired a warped-sprint…
Beyond Ukraine this Friday evening, which is quickly becoming a BFD (as Joe would say), is this news, which should be a reveal of a way-obvious law-breaking event: This is just the latest on-going development where testimony, documents and idiot interviews have show that the T-Rump and his minions/henchmen/lackeys were bound for glory — per…
One of the toughest questions to answer nowadays — at least for me, from a sane, somewhat knowledgable crux — is how can any person of any sense vote Republican? We’re in a way-dangerous moment in US history as one of ‘only’ two political parties is an immoral, horrible criminal enterprise. Within a lengthy press…
(Illustration: ‘A Mild Case of Cognitive Dissonance,’ ink on canvas, by Wilf Tilley, and found here). As early-evening Thursday fashions itself here in California’s Central Valley, the country is becoming more and more a problem bin for weird-ass troubles — the lastest is how a huge chunk of Americans are suffering from perceptions of contradictory…
Tweet for the twitter birds of absolute shit — Republicans are the worse with MoscowMitch slime leader: Nutshell via The Daily Beast late this morning: If only politicians thought before they talked. Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY) seemingly implied on Wednesday that Black Americans are not true Americans. Following a failed vote on Democrats’ John Lewis…
