War, Politics, and Life by Bruce Maulden
In the mishmash of shit flowing through the airwaves nowadays, some words of wisdom from 17-year-old climate-change crusader, Greta Thunberg, who ignites the slender, but strong-adjoining thread between the coronavirus pandemic and the way-crisis in earth’s environment: Image found here. She speaks reality in an interview this morning via the Guardian: Greta Thunberg has said…
Breezy and not all-that-warm this late-afternoon Friday here in California’s Central Valley. Compared to yesterday (101-degrees), today has been a snap — it’s 77 right now and with cool gusts the ambiance is near-comfortable. Another irregular/regular post of Leroy and I strolling along Rascal Bike Path here in Merced. Although we walk every day, only…
Breezy and nice this late-afternoon Friday in California’s Central Valley, though in the mid-80s the air is way-cooler than the last two/three days, which saw temps in triple digits close to sundown. And we’re getting a little overcast right now, so the cooling-off factor will most-likely heighten. Once again blogging in the backyard, but this…
Just short of the Thursday noon hour here in California’s Central Valley with temperatures near 100-degrees already as we get set for another hot/hottest afternoon ahead. Not much breeze, either, which makes the heat feel even warmer despite being way-warm anyway. Notwithstanding the serial clusterfucks now swirling around us, the old stand-by/background-noise/cataclysm of climate change…
Another buzz in California’s Central Valley this Wednesday afternoon, and once again a-walking Leroy along a portion of the Rascal Bike Path here in Merced, located in that self-same valley. Also another example of Leroy not really wanting to walk, especially maybe too early in the morning, but off we went anyway for a short…
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…
Up early today, Leroy and I out to transverse our small portion of the Rascal Bike Path here in Merced, but it was already getting warm, thus, not a long walk. Enough for us, though. We’re both old, and we play it that way. Writing this now in late afternoon and it’s hot, reportedly 95-degrees,…
(h/t Miss Cellania). A couple of items weirder than normal, and ghastly, too. Our life scenario seems to be edging in a general direction for a horrible situation-event to explode (even worse than right now), as per this account from The Washington Post this afternoon: The White House is seeking revisions to a document drafted…
Dog-walking again today, Leroy and I on the Rascal Bike Path here in Merced. We’re getting up earlier, so the trips are much cooler, and for some reason, seemed to be a lot brighter. Pretty quiet this morning, not too many people, and only a couple of other dog walkers. Close to midday it seems…
Again this morning, Leroy and I on our venture via the Rascal Bike Path here in Merced. A quiet, earlier walk with few people and a certain cool to the air that would be absent in a short space. Still Sunny bright all along the path — this post is pix from three walks in…
