War, Politics, and Life by Bruce Maulden
Passing the week towards the Memorial Day holiday and further upwards into Republican bullshit. They love to see others fail — more power to the party: True realistic American reality, pushed by the MAGA-Republican whiners: And the actual actuality of governing: And a pop to the future continuing today: Crazy to say at the way…
Sunshine and early-spring-like temperatures this near-midday Thursday here in California’s Central Valley — these days are the ones we’ll fondly remember in about another month or so. Or maybe earlier. I’ve got a feeling summer’s going to be a hot bitch, and not the good kind either. Also, a bitch still this morning is Ron…
Multi-whammy news day as politics got sadly tapped to the back burner by the death of a musical icon — all over the InterWebs cycle: Tina Turner passes at 83. She carried some talented weight for a long, long time on a number of brilliant levels. I’ve been infatuated with her since the early 1970s…
Sunny yet with cool temperatures this near-noon Wednesday here in California’s Central Valley — a most-pleasant daily episode as we await summer’s drastic measures. Also awaiting this evening’s farce Twitter bullshit horror-political-event with Ron DeSantis/Elon Musk coming together to create a spatter of media glow, I spied this in my rando InterWebs surfing: Zeeshan Aleem…
Sunshine again, but with cooler temperatures this late-afternoon Tuesday here in California’s Central Valley. The major linchpin cruising through today’s news cycle is the angry debt ceiling reality deadline approaching at the end of this month. Republicans, of course, are still holding the discussions hostage with a desire to sink the country if they can’t…
Sunshine and warm skies this late-afternoon Monday here in California’s Central Valley — once again, a day in the life. News nowadays makes me more than a little depressed. I doomscroll the InterWebs seeking ideas for a post and get so shitty-assed gloomy I don’t want to set at the laptop and write. Over the…
Sunshine and warmth this late-afternoon Thursday here in California’s Central Valley. Instead of the horrific political news, how about some horrific environmental news — climate change is here and growing worse. Although there have been warnings blaring for decades, the extreme weather shit scenario is about to hit the fan quickly and could be even…
In an age of uncharted, crazy shit the violence of living seems like a heavy, quick-approaching virus instigated by being frighteningly fearful of people one to another. Gun violence, of course, but also just random, political-influenced shit, as in the use of a baseball bat in an insane lash out at society as a fractured…
Once again sunshine and well-warm temperatures this late-morning Tuesday here in California’s Central Valley — and one more episode of a pre-summer’s encounter with quickly-approaching summer. In the trough of news cycling today through the InterWebs already, one on the popular backburner is media itself, especially journalism and the future of news reporting. In the…
In doomscrolling across the InterWebs this fine, hot Monday, the biggest jump-out is another case of a literal bat-shit crazy on democracy. Violence in wholesome politics: Details via The Washington Post just a few minutes ago: A person with a baseball bat went to U.S. Rep. Gerald E. Connolly’s Fairfax, Va., office Monday and assaulted…
