Hot as shit outside this near-noon Sunday here in California’s Central Valley — we’re forecast for boiling-scalding temperatures through the middle of the month at least, with 115 degrees predicted for this coming Tuesday. In the heat of cruel idiocy: Beyond the idiots lies the lying. In this world of heavy-duty ‘alternative facts‘ of T-Rump…
Beyond the norm in hot this late-afternoon Saturday in California’s Central Valley — right now it’s 108 (with a ‘feels like’ factor of 110 degrees), which is maybe tempered just a bit by a soft wind. I don’t think so — ‘soft‘ is way-too ‘soft‘ a word to describe the outside of my air-conditioned apartment.…
In the downer toilet-flush of a Friday news dump, I’ve gone to do a bowl — pipe bowl, that is. Here are some cannabis/marijuana news bits to refresh the mind to what ails it outside of just about every fucking thing. Marijuana has been a part of my life for more than 48 years now…
Hot and heavy this near-noon Friday here in California’s Central Valley — although one degree short of triple figures, the ‘feels like‘ gauge on my local weather site cites 102-degrees, which when I was outside a just a short while ago, is an understatement. We’re in a multi-day, statewide/region-wide ‘heat dome’ experience where baking-hot is…
Although it’s still fairly pleasant in the shade this near-noon Wednesday, the direct sunshine is hotter than shit here in California’s Central Valley as we encounter another ‘heat dome‘ driving temperatures to triple digits. Not only just us, but the entire SW US will have a boiling Labor Day weekend. And it will only get…
In all the news shit swirling about this Tuesday afternoon, this T-Rump tweet from this morning is pure shamelessness, empty of irony and self-awareness, and mostly, reality: T-Rump is one, well-fined piece of shit. Nutshell of today’s nut-fest (NBC News): Former President Donald Trump spent Tuesday morning posting inflammatory messages on social media, including many…
A few degrees under 100 just about mid-day Tuesday here in California’s Central Valley — the fevered-heat wave starts this afternoon, though, officially the baking isn’t supposed to begin until tomorrow. A lot of the time reality is a day early. And a long-ago-like tomorrow, it’s been 50 years since the Watergate era — the…
A huge, worrisome crinkle in the nowadays is the never STFU chorus rasping from the T-Rump, nausatingly complicating ferment asshole studies in American political life. And the stupid shit never ends: Some background to this jibberish via the Daily Beast this afternoon: In recent days, conservatives have latched onto remarks made by Facebook chief Mark…
Cool and way-pleasant this near-noon Monday here in California’s Central Valley — well under triple digits as apparently we’re right now in a real-short lived (two days!) episode of crisp temperatures and comfortable ambiance when outside. However, hot shit hits the fan starting Wednesday (but probably tomorrow) with another deep-dive into a furnace-like heat wave…
Another scorcher outside this late-afternoon Saturday here in California’s Central Valley — it’s 103 degrees right now, with barely a breeze. Despite a couple of ‘coolish‘ days immediately ahead, more blasting heat is on our schedule well-past Labor Day. It’s been a seemingly-quick, hot-ass summer, though, the entire clock/calendar, keeping-time apparatus feels like it’s on…
