War, Politics, and Life by Bruce Maulden
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‘…
This country is up shit creek without a paddle — a group of federal judges had set an emergency meeting for today on matters that “could not wait,” but now have decided to wait after the T-Rump tweeted this yesterday (h/t Raw Story): So, this afternoon CNN filed this: A group of federal judges hastily…
One of the more-excellent reasons why the T-Rump should be booed at every opportunity — Adam Jentleson today at GQ Trump may be the president, but he is a deeply immoral man in ways that transcend partisan divisions. If you shoehorn all the despicable things Trump has said and done into the aphorism of “agree…
Gorgeous Wednesday here on California’s north coast — a dog run at Little River State Park in the AM was picture-perfect with just a hint of mist north-and-south far-off down the beach. Warm today, too, bordering on hot, at least for us along the shoreline. Heavy news the last couple of days, a spark of…
Cloudy and chilly this early-evening Wednesday here on California’s north coast. We had a bit of sun during the day, but by early afternoon the sky was just about all gray. A morning dog run at the Ma-le’l Dunes was warm and once again exerting… Anniversary of sorts today, a way-surreal moment from long, long…

Nice to see a decent feeling in the air for the return of reality — even this early in the 2020 presidential competition, the T-Rump has apparently already shown he’s his own worse enemy: He’s united Americans in an effort to get rid…
(Illustration: M.C Escher’s ‘Three Spheres II,’ found here). Cloudy and cold this early-evening Tuesday here on California’s north coast. Bright sunshine for most of the day, and real-chilly breezy, too. Started darkening-up late this afternoon, with rain forecast for tonight and tomorrow. Sunshine back supposedly on Thursday for a couple of days, then the cycle…
(Illustration: ‘Art Critic‘ by Norman Rockwell, found here). Wet, chilly and dark this Friday evening on California’s north coast, and a bad case of sad. Bad let-down, to say the least. I kind of knew/felt it was too good to be true — tonight at the New York Times, and yes, piss-and-moan: The rare public…
(Illustration found here). Oft quoted nowadays — though, a good description of the T-Rump world, or just about any random Republican operating anywhere — the somber warning of Ben Obi-Wan Kenobi from long, long ago, and far, far away: ‘“Mos Eisley spaceport: You will never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy. We…
Cold and dark this Monday evening on California’s north coast — although sunny most of the day, the late-afternoon got cloudy and deep gray — not abnormal around here for just about anytime of the year. All-in-all a depressing period — winter… And today marked another start to the work week, and along with that…
