War, Politics, and Life by Bruce Maulden
Bright sunshine and warm this late-afternoon Monday here in California’s Central Valley — this most likely our last day for a long while with somewhat cooler temperatures (at least in the morning), Tomorrow the reckoning begins with the heat expected to be quick, day-by-day turned up to reach 110 degrees by Saturday. We’ll be getting…
Rain and cold wind this early-evening Monday here in California’s Central Valley — we are still in the throes of our second big winter storm in less than two months of the new year as snow in LA is not a movie about cocaine in Hollywood. We’re forecast for maybe some sunshine toward the end…
Rain clouds but no rain to speak of this late afternoon Monday here in California’s Central Valley — maybe we’ll get some more of the wet stuff tonight and tomorrow, but so far it’s been a bust for precipitation for the region. Of course, not so everywhere — maybe ask the folks way-wet in Japan,…
Overcast with on-and-off sprinkling showers this late-afternoon Sunday here in California’s Central Valley — fairly-heavy rain forecast for tomorrow, so we’re going to be wet for a couple of days.

The research-study was published at ScienceAdvances — main ingredient: ‘Results confirm that conservatives have lower sensitivity than liberals, performing worse at distinguishing truths…
America seems to be getting more dark and silly: Anthony Antonio’s story today from above is folded unhingedly into the tale of another insurrectionist arrested after the Jan. 6 US Capitol onslaught — a nutcase of a case presented via Law&Crime this evening: A man alleged to have taken part in the Jan. 6 attack…
In the rolling aftermath from Wednesday’s US Capitol storming-shitshow that’s seemingly gathering outrage steam, from new reports the riot/insurrection was worse than we understood even with viewing it in real time (CNN): ‘It was even more violent. It was even more treacherous. And Trump’s behavior was even more disturbing.‘ Only in the aftermath is shit…
In our way-modern world social media opens shit up (except in the T-Rump’s case, closes it down) and exposes reality, as identifying the assholes from Wednesday’s insurrection encounter at the nation’s Capitol, leading to arrests and worse — family members going WTF.
