War, Politics, and Life by Bruce Maulden
Good Sunday morning, and another musical intermission from all the terrible, disquieting bullshit rambling about out in the world, especially in these here United States, instead give a listen to some really good, topnotch covers of some really good topnotch rock/near-about-rock sounds — last installment here — and today coming from a new place. Usually…
Fans of Fox Mulder rejoiced this afternoon as the US Office of National Intelligence released its long-awaited UFO report, though, leaving more conclusions up in the air than identified — the so-called Unidentified Aerial Phenomena Task Force checked-out 144 events: ‘These reports describe incidents that occurred between 2004 and 2021, with the majority coming in…
So far this Friday morning there’s at least two major news stories rolling out, both have current significance as well as somewhat longer-range connotations. Oddly, too, the pair also should be of no big surprise. Shock maybe with the overriding lead item (Washington Post): ‘At least 159 people are unaccounted for following a condo building’s sudden…
One of the most-glaring examples of current Republican malfeasance occurred yesterday in the US Senate — Dana Milbank at The Washington Post correctly summed it up: ‘Senate Republicans voted in lockstep on Tuesday to block the landmark voting rights bill, in effect embracing the disenfranchisement of non-White voters under the “big lie” justification that widespread…
A daughter coming to visit today — we haven’t seen each other in nearly a year-and-a-half, a circumstance of the pratfall-paradox of a pandemic. In such, I’ll probably be offline for the immediate-near future, but I always try to contribute at least one post a day to keep Compatible Creatures in harmony wth history. Reconcilable…
Idiots outside of an institution have a shitload of problems, reality being one of them, and with the case of T-Rump and his followers, it’s part of the Big Lie: Standing story of our times recapped this morning by Chuck Schumer on the Senate floor: “He lied over and over and over again … poisoning…
Here we are again, another Monday and with it another book detailing the horror of the T-Rump getting way-fucking flummoxed by the COVID-19 pandemic, brushing-aside warnings with narcissistic ignorance, allowing the virus to run rampant across the US, now having killed more than 600,000-plus Americans within a short, year-and-a-half — in irony of all slingshot,…
Another Dad’s Day with good wishes usually passed from children to dads in glad tidings. However, if you’re an asshole who doesn’t understand families and children and the word, ‘happy,’ there’s trouble. This morning, in seemingly notable context, it seems if the T-Rump is actually working to become even worse a human being: A close-up…
Of course, the over-domineering news story this morning is the Joe Biden/Vladimir Putin meeting at an 18th-century stately home on Switzerland’s Lake Geneva, and according to most of the reports I’ve seen so far, seemed to go off without any kind noticable problem or controversy. The face-to-face lasted about three hours, and was supposedly to…
Although Joe Biden has called-out T-Rump by name before (albeit just, “this guy“), he went hard and heavy against the orange-turded asshole today in a press conference in Belgium, while also sticking GQPers-feet to the collective fire: Story via the Guardian‘s live blog this afternoon: In a wide-ranging press conference in Brussels, Joe Biden did…
