A tizzy of a dump for a Friday — T-Rump finally getting some longtime-coming comeuppance for being a lying-ass, cruel, shitty asshole (NYT): Former President Donald J. Trump was ordered by a Manhattan jury on Friday to pay $83.3 million to the writer E. Jean Carroll for defaming her in 2019 after she accused him…
Clear skies and a bit of fading sunshine this early-evening Tuesday here in California’s Central Valley — today a respite from the rain and cold, which is reportedly set to return tomorrow and then on-and-off rest of the month. Weathering nature is maybe somewhat easier than doing weathering on life in America. Today was primary…
Fog and coldness once again this late-afternoon Friday here in California’s Central Valley — close to finishing out an average day set in a not-average age. Also end of the fabled work week on a note of surreal images of a time of pure weirdness. Apparently, not a heavy-duty Friday news dump today, thus we…
Deep ‘tule fog‘ this late-afternoon Thursday here in California’s Central Valley — a normal day in a becoming more abnormal of a new year. Some shit that caught my eye/ear this morning/afternoon — getting weird out there. First off some sweet normal — Joe Biden was in Raleigh, NC, today and while there made a…
In just a couple of weeks of a new year, we’ve gotten a tally on how shitty this election coming to ground already is going to be — here this Tuesday afternoon, last night’s Iowa frozen votes reveals the T-Rump is running the show. Despite all the actual horror of the Orange Turd, he’s not…
Another Monday in a new year with a lot of hold-over shit still bubbling along, especially with the Jan. 6 insurrection/riot at the US Capitol three years ago a forefront news item that will most likely impact this upcoming election year. If you didn’t know T-Rump was a cruel, shitface asshole, now’s the time. Especially…
Clear and cold this early-evening Sunday here in California’s Central Valley — big winter weather punching most of the country right now and maybe into next week. Snow and freezing temps as the season blows across the US. Here in the valley, outside this afternoon cold-ass wind off a way-cold front from the Gulf of…
Instead of a remembrance post this Saturday evening on the third anniversary of the horrid insurrection/riot at the US Capitol — such accounts which you can find all over the InterWebs today, memorials replayed so shitty with tons of actual video clips of the violently-startling, near-surreal event — I’m offering another literary solicitation to purchase…
Sunshine in some spots still this late afternoon Friday here in California’s Central Valley. Another end to seemingly another week yet this one is special — not only the finish to holiday episodes but also the first few days in perhaps the most important, meaningful, consequential year since maybe in forever. Life as we’ve known…
Happy New Year! In the evening of the first day. This new year has all the earmarks of being truly remarkable, and hopefully not really dangerous. However, given the situation of nowadays, that’s a tall order, especially with a crazy, violent underbelly foaming with vicious hatred of everything not of them. Although there’s room for…
