War, Politics, and Life by Bruce Maulden
Another Monday, but maybe it’s still yesterday, or maybe still, it’s really Tuesday, but one thing for certain, the T-Rump is one crazy-ass motherfucker who’s getting thumped by White House reporters — even today, or whenever: Mainly for shit like this: Notice the CNN chyron — in several clips of T-Rump’s idiot presser there’s been…
Another Saturday in a scenario where all seven days of the week seemed to have clogged together like we’re all living in a way-weirdly-elongated weekend, time gets fuzzy and hard to grasp. Not going out and about is a wear-and-tear process, because when you do go out, the trip is bizarre, akin to awkwardly walking…
Cold-cloudy and breezy this early-evening here in California’s Central Valley. The weirdness of life cornered in a pandemic continues. Yesterday I was mistaken in our local COVID-19 confirmed cases, and even worse today — 12 added in the last 24 hours, bringing our total in Merced County to 52 with three deaths (Merced Sun-Star). This…
Overcast-gloomy this early-evening Wednesday in California’s Central Valley, looks and feels like more rain, just as forecast for tonight, along with a 60-percent chance tomorrow. Weather under the weather, too. Still continuing onward the coronavirus, though, new predictions indicate maybe there could be less lives lost than originally expected, a glimmer of hope as ‘pandemic‘…
Rain, dark clouds and thunder this early evening Monday here in California’s Central Valley, a fitting day for the time. Big news maybe (in relation to other ‘Big News‘), UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson has been placed in an ICU unit after his COVID-19 infection worsened, in case he required a ventilator. A shit-storm of…
Raining this early-evening Saturday here on this tiny patch of California’s Central Valley. Outside just now smoking a small bit of a Black&Mild under the backyard-lawn umbrella, the ambiance was nice, a tad maybe on the fairy-tale side, too. Contrast greatly the reality of our predicament, and this actuality of how we got here (h/t…
End of what-used-to-be another work week, but Friday now could easily be a Wednesday in the current state of affairs. Or a Tuesday. Chief topic, of course, remains COVID-19 and all connecting subjects. ‘Surreal‘ is a word I’d use, but it’s getting a bit worn lately, maybe ‘bizarre,’ or ‘freakish‘ in replacement, or perhaps a…
A warm, though, breezy Tuesday afternoon here in California’s Central Valley, a beautiful, sunny, content-looking postcard of all-is-well and not a freaking thing out of place — Not! Appearances can really be dangerously deceiving. Yesterday, some bad local coronavirus news — Merced County is up to 10 coronavirus cases, one from community spread, the others…
Another terrible slap at the press today from the T-Rump during his now-daily COVID-19 circus events. Called out for his bullshit, he goes mental in anger. The following video is Fox News, sorry (CNN is here): Just about every episode of these update/rallies has at least one encounter with a direct question, usually voiced in…
Sunday used to be usually a slow news day, but not in the nowadays. Although there’s less posting by most blogs, the major news sites keep churning it out, mostly with shit from talking heads, or rehashed newspaper reports, blended with breaking events as pandemic action never stops, until it stops, people die even on…
