War, Politics, and Life by Bruce Maulden
A victory, long-in-coming: Yeah, the Senate. Even more reason the Georgia run-off is so damn important — well, way-way- important to this country’s survival in any ‘normal’ fashion. And Republicans are such hypocritical assholes: Republicans ridiculed the measure as unnecessary when so many Americans need economic relief from Covid-19. “With all the challenges America has…
In a time of a way-divided country, there’s one issue a bulk of Americans are together in agreement — lighten-up on marijuana. Right now, pot is medically legal in 33 states, recreationally legal in 12 states, as well Washington, D.C, and two-thirds of Americans want marijuana to be legalized: ‘The share of U.S. adults who…
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…
Bright and windy this early-evening Wednesday on California’s north coast — a simply-gorgeous day, and even with a chilled and sharp breeze, the Ma-‘e’l Dunes in Manila was still a good hike area earlier this afternoon for me and the dogs.. We trekked to the ocean with shifting sand in our faces (wore me out,…
(Illustration found here). One good ground-gainer in all this horrifying news-life cycle-shit, and something which not too long ago would be considered a major no-no, especially while running for president of the United States, and apparently, the casual words denote a large (maybe majority) number of people who now think nothing of it: Democratic White House…
(Illustration: ‘Cannabis,’ by Michael Creese, found here). Faded-bright sky with chilly air this late-afternoon Tuesday on California’s north coast, a beautiful sunshine day, though, and Samoa Beach was again gorgeously tranquil. The NWS forecasts ‘Mostly Sunny‘ for tomorrow, but rain-showers expected for Thursday, and continuing onward for maybe a week. Right as I type this, the…
(Illustration above: ‘Cannabis,’ by Michael Creese, found here). Sunshine slowly being replaced by rolling, big-fluffy clouds this Monday afternoon on California’s north coast — supposedly, returning to wet-times tomorrow, with first some light showers, then increasing to the heavy-rain category by Wednesday, consuming rest of the week. Farewell to a weekend of absolutely-gorgeous weather, motif…
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…
Overcast and chilly this Wednesday evening here on California’s north coast — winter’s about here… Beyond our aggravating political circus, this afternoon I spied a couple of new studies on marijuana, both furthering normalization. First one was about conduct — as more US teens now smoke cannabis then cigarettes, new research indicates pot use won’t…
Occasional bright sunshine intensifies through huge, fluffy clouds this near-noon Friday on California’s north coast — rain reportedly on-and-off until middle of next week, then clear for awhile. A threat of small hail through tonight, though… Clawing away from the T-Rump dumpster-fire/train-wreck currently oozing up in DC, some news in the medical marijuana field, especially…
