War, Politics, and Life by Bruce Maulden
Another gorgeous, sunshine-filled, low-temp episode shortly after the noon hour Thursday here in California’s Central Valley. Reportedly, another 10 days or so of this chilled-type weather (abnormal for the time) and summer is then expected to start kicking in with triple-digit air temperatures, so enjoy while you can. We all take notice of ‘special days‘…
As we await news on the submersible, known as “Titan,” missing since Sunday on a sight-seeing trip to the deep-sea-sunken Titanic, there was a couple of incidents in the House today that kept the interests nauseatingly viable — both stories on the shittiness of House Republicans and their wayward agenda of spite and arrogant ignorance.…
Bright sunshine and chilly temperatures this mid-day Wednesday here in California’s Central Valley — the summer solstice today, the opening round of summer. The clock spun from spring to summer reportedly at 7:58 this morning PDT, and we’re now well into the cycle. Except summer is nowhere to be seen/felt here in California. Unlike a…
Just near-sleep-scrolling through the InterWebs the last couple of days without the energy, drive, or literary desire to post on anything, from all our environments, be it one-sided horror politics, genocidal war, or the-becoming hothouse weather. Reality nowadays is wretched. So far today, the only real pass-along item I spied is a deep-dive into the…
(Artwork: ‘Landscape of Change,’ by Jill Pelto, and found here.) Sunshine and heat this late-afternoon Thursday here in California’s Central Valley — today is one of the steps on a rising-temperature stairway we’re going to experience in the next couple of days. Although we’re in the high 80s right now, maybe triple digits by Saturday.…
Seasonal heat fills this way-warm late-afternoon Wednesday here in California’s Central Valley — this might be the actual, real first day of summer, though, the official first day is still an exact week away. Temps going up from here on out — that’s the start mark. Also on the mark, the aftermath of T-Rump’s arraignment…
(Sketch-image of T-Rump in court by Jane Rosenberg/Reuters, and found here.) Although scenes today of the T-Rump entourage in Miami appeared at first look as normal, low key and, maybe, a bit bland, but in reality the scene was surreal as shit. One of the most despised, despicable, dipshit assholes on the planet took a…
Smokey-overcast this late-afternoon Monday here in California’s Central Valley — warm, and seemingly a bit humid, too. Meanwhile, how do you handle what you don’t know? In the T-Rump indictment case, as he rolled into Miami today to await the perp walk scheduled for tomorrow, Republicans of every stripe, from Congressasses to sidewalk MAGA hatters,…
Overcast again this late-afternoon Sunday here in California’s Central Valley — under skies without much sunshine, the temps are lower than normal as summer heat keeps being pushed further and further back into the short-range future. However, we’ll gladly take all the time we can before our seasonal air boiler gets really cranked up, supposedly…
End of the work week this late-afteroon Friday here in California’s Central Valley — yet just the beginning of the weekend and T-Rump’s nasty, shitty little dance with the law. One of the best explainers of this whole T-Rump classified documents indictment deal can be found at Politico (h/t tengrain), and well beyond my meager…
