“We are Forerunners. Guardians of all that exists. The roots of the Galaxy have grown deep under our careful tending. Where there is life, the wisdom of our countless generations has saturated the soil. Our strength is a luminous sun, towards which all intelligence blossoms… And the impervious shelter, beneath which it has prospered.”
Given the sabre-rattling going on in the South and especially East China Sea right now, it is worth asking whether the American military and its regional allies can do anything whatsoever to win a war against the world’s largest navy and second largest air...
Monday = Suckage. It’s an equation with no known loopholes or exceptions. And of course, if you have to shuffle off to work today, it’s about 100x worse than normal. I am very happy to report that I don’t have to do that until next week, when I...
10 As soon as Adoni-zedek, king of Jerusalem, heard how Joshua had captured Ai and had devoted it to destruction,[a] doing to Ai and its king as he had done to Jericho and its king, and how the inhabitants of Gibeon had made peace with Israel and were among...
Greetings from the coast of sunny [redacted]!!! The weather is warm – even for early autumn – and the beach is beautiful. Or at least, I think it is – I can’t actually see it from where I’m sitting. But around here, the women are pretty...

Hail, fellows, and well met. Yours truly is finally on vacation in an undisclosed location, enjoying sunshine, beach weather, and cocktails. Or rather, in my case, a decent bottle of red wine. I’ve never understood the American and British predilection for beer,...
When it comes to the not-vaxx, I don’t tend to put much stock in the view that the vaccine is a deliberately engineered infertility, impotence, or genocide shot. I certainly don’t think it’s effective, and I have deep reservations about the mRNA...
