War, Politics, and Life by Bruce Maulden
Raining here this Saturday morning in California’s Central Valley — and once again feels like it’s raining all over the world, especially in Florida where the T-Rump sits his big ass blathering about nonsensical shit while the US burns. While a way-seriously required COVID-19 relief bill is still unsigned, he golfs and acts like the…
In the laborious era of the coronavirus there’s been a couple of bright slices of light recently, one of course, the vaccines, and the other a hard-accomplished COVID-19 relief bill passed this week by our near-worthless Congress, though, the paltry portion lies plainly on the side of shit-stamping Republicans. Definite the divide as captured by…
This pissed me so-off this week — I was going to post about it yesterday, but ran out of both time and energy — the shifty shittiness of Republicans after four years of the nasty, crass-foul mouth of the T-Rump and a few particular asshole GOPers who continously talk shit about minorities, women, children, the…
Crystal-clear and chilly this early-evening Thursday in California’s Central Valley as we bring another dislocated workweek close to completion — one more day and we’re into the weekend. Yeah — screamed in a faintly-audible whisper. Not the normal weekend, though, as California on Saturday will start a curfew due to surging COVID-19 cases. Announced this…
A sunny and breezy early-evening Tuesday here in California’s Central Valley. Big, white clouds, too, and a cool-ish temperature (70-degrees right now) and an unfamiliar feel to the air — we had some fairly-heavy hail yesterday afternoon, and looked like rain this morning. Blogging outside again with a pix of the scene. I’m retired, so…
Breezy and warm just after the noon-hour Monday here in California’s Central Valley. According to WeatherUnderground, we’re a bit under 80-degrees right now, supposedly climbing to 85 later today — a hot week with maybe hitting 98 by Friday. Backyard blogging again, breezy and comfortable, a little work-station in quiet seclusion surrounded by other apartments…
Sunny and breezy a few minutes past the Thursday noon hour here in California’s Central Valley. Warm, but not bad and nowhere like the last couple of days, the cool wind helps, I’m sure — blogging yard-style once more, grown used to doing the laptop business outside (inside mostly on the iPad), my daughter’s apartment…
(Illustration found here). As we spin through this weird-ass conundrum of the coronavirus, our biggest enemy in acquiring a handle on the pandemic is the T-Rump, and his self-centered bullshit that’s impeding an organized assault against spread of the virus. A petulant, incompetent sociopath is in charge of some serious business. Even as another GOPer…
Another sad event in the shifting world of good journalism. (Illustration found here). News gathering has always been a hard row-to-hoe, even in the best of times. Technology switched the goal posts all around, which created a vacuum of sorts, especially within a dying breed, print journalism. Just in the last decade-and-half the newspaper industry…
Pot has been a mainstay for more than 46 years — for me, personally, catching the bong in 1974 — and the changes in just the last decade have been incredible and most-fascinating, especially with all the lies and ‘fake news’ about weed for nearly a century. The big turn-on for me today was a…
