War, Politics, and Life by Bruce Maulden
Ghastly but accurate (via Raw Story): Ending caught me by surprise — Joe? The video is from the UK — it works, though. And I spied the clip yesterday, but this morning I came across a must-read companion piece to it from the June issue of Rolling Stone by Tim Dickinson, a detailed survey of…
Midday Friday here in California’s Central Valley, and a way-warm one already. According to WeatherUnderground, we’re sitting on 97-degrees right now, working to a reported high of 98 — hot tomorrow, too, into the high 90s again. Cooling by Monday, maybe down to the high 70s-80s. Cooling? Meanwhile, a view of an opposite for this…
We’re in an era of ‘you can’t make this shit up,’ shit: Background via the Guardian‘s live blog this morning: The Trump Death Clock, the real-time tracker that seeks to put a figure on the number of Americans who have died needlessly during the pandemic as a result of White House inaction, has just gone…
(h/t Miss Cellania). A couple of items weirder than normal, and ghastly, too. Our life scenario seems to be edging in a general direction for a horrible situation-event to explode (even worse than right now), as per this account from The Washington Post this afternoon: The White House is seeking revisions to a document drafted…
Bat-shit crazy times, huh? And this from the LA Times this morning: Scientists have identified a new strain of the coronavirus that has become dominant worldwide and appears to be more contagious than the versions that spread in the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic, according to a new study led by scientists at Los Alamos National…
Another day of pestilence of the health-related kind, fueled by America’s insane predicament in the throes of a complete lunatic who is making our virus-infested Twilight Zone episode even more deadlier. The T-Rump is a danger to the planet, get him the fuck out of there. Hurdle we face, however, is reflected buried at the…
Another day in the life… (Illustration found here). Anniversary of a nasty sort — Dick Nixon died today 26 years ago. A great hat-tip to tengrain this morning and a link to this flashback of the perfect Nixon obit penned by the great Hunter S. Thompson, a piece of epic truth-telling with the sharp, totally-awesome…
As we spiral out of control into the vapors of COVID-19, today’s nut-shit press conference with the T-Rump revealed himself not only as an asshole of vile, way-low moral values, but also a dangerous, contemptible problem for America and any kind of democratic future. He’s a zero sense of anything but himself. An exchange with…
Little wonder we’re having trouble getting a handle on COVID-19 here in the US, bullshit is sinking the playing field, not leveling it (h/t BJ): Yet the assholes at Fox News shifted their views without missing a beat — this illogical spin-around seen in raw-time: In a world gone crazy and the search for reality…
Even on the weekend the wind blows, which way-or-not depends, and so the coronavirus continues to barrel-down upon humanity with full, unchecked glee — we’re coupled with a pandemic and an idiot in charge of handling said pandemic.
