Compatible Creatures by Bruce Maulden
War, Politics, and Life
Today 50 years ago was also a Wednesday. In those days I was a senior at the University of Florida and was less than a month away from graduating. Although I had the GI Bill for financial assistance, during the last two years of college I worked part-time at the Sears, Roebuck store there in…
Clear skies and super-bright sunshine this Tuesday late afternoon here in California’s Central Valley — despite the chilled-airish breezes all day (temps in the usually-warmish mid-70s), summer-like shit will supposedly take hold at the end of this week. We’re forecast to be in the 90s by Friday; unless the wind keeps its cool-down effect going,…
Ugly on a Friday — overcast this near noon in California’s Central Valley, yet nothing like the hideous goings-on back East. History’s real-time living sucks. In a for instance: T-Rump this morning being the piece-of-shit asshole with the horrible, shitty irony of being a total-creep of an unfaithful husband (Business Insider): It’s better than a…
Seventeen years ago this afternoon Compatible Creatures sprung forth out into the InterWebs. And later that evening in April 2007, my first post — aptly entitled, ‘Word‘ — was published, and from then henceforth life hasn’t been the same. The first-ever post was wordly-short and notedly on point: In an age where events are known…
Terrifying shit for a noonish Friday — news dump literally. A couple of items off the T-Rump’s fourth day in New York on that ‘hush money‘/financial campaign-fraud case, one a terrifying outside-the-courtroom incident: Strange, more-than-meets-the-eye news clip. Some muted details: Eyewitness News talked to a witness who said the man was holding papers in Collect…
A wish connection for this Thursday afternoon in light of the death of OJ Simpson and the orange-turd-of-an-asshole T-Rump: Of course, the LA Times story has been edited correctly, but not before (Newsweek): ‘“Long before the city woke up on a fall morning in 2017, Trump walked out of Lovelock Correctional Center outside Reno, a…
Big, fluffy clouds floating in bright, shiny sunshine this late-afternoon Sunday here in California’s Central Valley — another gorgeous spring day, though, today is a holiday and, too, seemingly slow on the horror-news. End of another month, again, which gut-clutching displays how our current calendar/clock-time seems to be accelerating the shit past as a full…
Gray-overcast this late-afternoon Wednesday here in California’s Central Valley — some rain expected tonight and maybe tomorrow as not a bad scenario as it’s been beautiful around these parts the last few days. A most-delightful spring so far. However, that’s the weather synopsis– reality sucks for the vast most part. I haven’t once again blogged…
Another start to another work week, and this late-afternoon Monday here in California’s Central Valley finds us edging closer and closer to November and to an election beholding to none in recent memory. In response to his graphic speech at another lie-infested rally this past weekend — T-Rump described a “bloodbath” in the US if…
Near-about clear skies and warmish temperatures this late-afternoon Wednesday here in California’s Central Valley — rain forecast for tomorrow and Friday, but now it’s best to enjoy the now. On the list of cringe-worthy, shitty items bubbling in our news feeds today and maybe in a long time, this from SCOTUS freaking-ass sucks — it…
