War, Politics, and Life by Bruce Maulden
Some music to whip us into shape here this mid-day Friday in California’s Central Valley — hot as shit outside right now with deep, clear sunshine coupled with a 90-degree temp on the way to a reported high of 105 coming later in the afternoon. First writing in a couple of months — maybe I’ll…
Clear, bright sunshine, though, breezy chilly this mid-day Saturday here in California’s Central Valley — weird weather in the wake of last week’s triple-digit temps versus the forecast for a massive heat dome back East. We’re in for the shits this summer — no shit. Another time for a shine: An informative, spot-on read: Interview…
In a first for me, I attended — took part in — my local area’s portion of the ‘No Kings’ protests staged across the country today in opposition to all things T-Rump. It was emotional. All these people crowded into downtown Merced, California, with one voice and one aim — call shit as shit. People…
Today is a full month subsequent to my last post here, and indeed the shit has hit the old, worn-out fan over and over again. The fan is just about clogged with the ugly, taxing shit. Since nearly this entire year has been nothing but horror beyond the spoken/written word that it’s got me in…
Bright sunshine and way-too-warm temperatures this mid-afternoon Thursday here in California’s Central Valley — a taste of what’s surely to come in a few short weeks, maybe a preview of a boiling-hot summer, which is no shock. We’re in the mid-80s right now with reportedly a chance to pop 90 before the day is out…
Angle of attack (CNN): ‘But President Donald Trump is proving that a politician can absolutely harm the economy when they lack any regard for the consequences, borne largely by the people who elected them.‘ The T-Rump sucks: However, he’s sucked for a long, long time. And so sucky, he’ll never reconize his own shitstorm: T-Rump’s…
Overcast skies with a semblance of rain-to-come this late-afternoon Saturday in California’s Central Valley. Rain was forecast for today, but so far we’ve been high and dry. Maybe later: The annual White House Correspondents’ Association (WHCA) dinner is tonight — shit ain’t the same in T-Rump time, making it sour-like to squeeze humor out of…
This particular day, 18 years ago, was a Tuesday. What a stretch of time, huh? In April 2007, war was the major topic, and shit looked bad — yet in a nowadays perspective, them was the good-ole-days. Sarah Palin was still more than a year off, and Barack Obama was already on the scene: ‘“America…
As if these shitty nowadays-times could get even more sad — Leroy, my daughter Hannah’s basset hound/greyhound mix, has passed. Although we’d known awhile the end was near — lingering bad-health issues combined with being well-advanced in age, I guess, caused the scenario to worsen — but knowing before hand don’t soften the blow. In…
Bright, clear sunshine and well-warm temperatures this late-afternoon Tuesday here in California’s Central Valley — reportedly topped 85 not too long ago. Seasonal glimpse way too far ahead. A peep, too, on some really terrible people: A building correlation between Erdogan’s Turkey and T-Rump’s America: ‘“It’s kind of a nightmare that I wake up every…
