War, Politics, and Life by Bruce Maulden
Warm sunshine this Friday late-afternoon here in California’s Central Valley. as we inch closer and closer to the heat of summer. Weather the hot storm to come is the only avenue for us, for everybody. Especially with democracy in the shape it’s in right now. Despite an economy booming and plenty of jobs out there,…
Overcast with a brownish tint to the air this Wednesday early evening here in California’s Central Valley — appears as a weird combination of a tule fog remanent and forest fire smoke, though, no fires statewide as of yet. Just a brown blanket of sorts — although I want sunshine, in a few weeks when…
America is not immune to political/illegal shenanigans — and the criminal enterprise that was the T-Rump era in the Oval Office looks to have been the most corrupt, good-grief awful governmental operation in our history. And apparently, he became increasingly way-more villainous and ignorant toward the end. Here it is late in the afternoon, and…
Cloudy with rain showers on the horizon this late-afternoon Sunday here in California’s Central Valley. Weekends have always blown by in time, though, nowadays there’s not much space between Friday evening and Sunday night/Monday morning.

Ukraine continues to be the center of the world’s attention — as it should be — and the whole show appears to be slowly sliding into an even more humane crisis as Vlad Putin’s shitty military has nearly collapsed. The war zone thus will become cities and countryside being blown apart. Coupled with Russian cannon…
Apparently, the conflict in Ukraine is picking up according to most news sources, and from indications, the Russians are going for the highest leveling-effect of urban explosions while seemingly aiming for civilian areas — beat the Ukrainians into dust, people, buildings, all of it. A horrid trend: If you can’t beat them, destroy them with…
Near noon here in California’s Central Valley, and the news keeps running through Ukraine. Although Vlad Putin’s boys are losing big time, bungling an invasion and its aftermath, the Ukrainians are holding on tenaciously and beating the sad, incompetent assholes at their own game. Well, not exactly like the Russkies — no murder/mayhem on the…
