“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.”
For those who are not well-versed in Izzlam, the whole Sunni vs Shi’a divide does not really make a whole lot of sense. It is like listening to two particularly stubborn – and, frankly, not very intelligent – siblings arguing over N’Sync or the Backstreet Boys, except...
The God-Emperor revealed yesterday that Boeing – yes, THAT Boeing, the one that cannot help but make a colossal mess out of literally everything it does nowadays – is going to be the producer of America’s future “sixth-generation” combat jet: As His Most Illustrious,...
Boys, have you ever had one of those weeks where literally everything seems to fall onto your shoulders all at once, and the world sort of stops making sense? The older we get, the more often this seems to happen. Speaking from LONG and PAINFUL years of experience...
Mondays are depressing even at the best of times, and they are especially so when you are up against tight (one might even say unreasonable) deadlines, where everything has to be done yesterday. That, of course, is inevitable at one point or another. Such times do not...
11 When Jabin, king of Hazor, heard of this, he sent to Jobab king of Madon, and to the king of Shimron, and to the king of Achshaph, 2 and to the kings who were in the northern hill country, and in the Arabah south of Chinneroth, and in...

Two days ago, the Russian Ministry of Defence officially announced the full liberation (or recapture, if you prefer) of the town of Sudzha, in the Kursk region of Russia. The collapse of the Ukrainian defence forces in the region brought to a near-end what has to be...
It is serendipitous indeed when we get a Friday Pi Day. Indeed, by my reckoning, the last time that happened, was 11 years ago. Given this most beloved series did not start up until 2016, it is fair to say that was a MAJOR missed opportunity. Since we are all about...
Today is Pi Day, and that will mean precisely NOTHING to the 99.14159265897% of you who are not, for some strange reason, tickled by numerological nitwittery, the way maths majors (like me) are. Of course, I can hardly blame you for this. Irrational constants like π...
“Welcome to Monday” – said literally nobody, ever. And anybody who DOES say it, deserves a mouthful of knuckles, because Monday is like that horrible stain on the carpet that you cannot get out, no matter HOW hard you scrub. It ALWAYS shows up, and...
