War, Politics, and Life by Bruce Maulden
Beautiful late-afternoon Tuesday here in California’s Central Valley — sunshine and warm temps starting about noon following a foggy, chilly morning. Weather is way-oblique in its own existence, fog to sunshie, cold to hot, sometimes in minutes, and sometimes — maybe most-of-the-time — has an original game plan, too, and we humans are out of…
(NOTE: This post the first-ever from an outside contributor, or someone not me. Hopefully, many more to come). (Illustration found here). By Eva M. Several days ago I was skimming the headlines when one caught my eye that felt, as my dad used to say, like a slap in the face with a cold wet…
Short evening as I’m making calzones for my daughter’s birthday. During dinner we have a TV-streaming routine and currently we’re about to end the first season of “Snowpiercer,” and it’s a dandy. Except it’s pretty intense and we’re only good for one episode a night: And we then switch to something way-lightly — for awhile…
Despite being out of office nearly a month, the T-Rump continues to gnaw at the bowels as he did today, picking up chunks of the news cycle, but still not in a good way. T-Rump needs to be gone from the scene. Life would easily function in a less-stressful atmosphere without his shitty persona intruding…
(Illustration of the Capitol riots found at the BBC). Aside from the national political bullshit off the T-Rump’s acquittal, the whole ball-of-wax is viewed differently in other countries, and since seeingly Republicans aren’t blowing into dust anytime soon, it’s a viable worry — as we here in the US worry, too, but it’s literally closer…
As the Senate trial of the T-Rump begins day three, another shitty story currently has floated-up created via horrid lies and bullshit of the right-wing delusional, nasty, hated-filled rhetoric intensifying the last couple of months — Gina Carano is a pilgarlic asshat. I was unaware of Carano’s shit until just yesterday when news broke of…
Once again the topic of the day by far is the T-Rump’s impeachment trial in the Senate, part two of several engrossing parts fueled by emotional speech, and especially the use of not-seen-before videos — over-used word for these proceedings, ‘obvious,’ as in it’s so-fucking obvious T-Rump incited an insurrection. As I said yesterday, I…
As we cruise through these crazed and perlious times, music helps us cope. And sometimes certain songs more than others show the way to the proverbial light at the end of the tunnel. In a sense, a kind of anthem for a time. In the last few years I sort of gyrated betweena tunes set…
(Illustration: Pro-Trump supporters storm the US Capitol, found at CNN). Clambering across the news cycle today has been copious reports on the opening day of T-Rump’s impeachment trial in the Senate, with the Democrats releasing an emotional, pitch-perfect video of what it’s like to witness an insurrection/riot, coup-like event encouraged-propeled by spoken words — a…
As we ponder this early-evening Sunday here in California’s Central Valley, we understand a large percentage of America is dwelling within a bubble of near-insanity, or maybe carrying a brick-or-two shy a full load. Either way, this country is half-and-half nuts. And the entire Republican Party is cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs — take today’s ramblings…
