“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.”

Mondays are just the WORST, especially if you have to get up early to hit the road on a business trip. There are few things quite as miserable as being jolted hard out of a sound, deep, and very pleasant sleep, by the insistent chirping of your alarm. (If that alarm...
Five questions Islam cannot answer

Five questions Islam cannot answer

It has been quite a while since I did anything approaching a reasonably deep and nuanced look at Izzlam over here. World events have made such writing irrelevant, to say the least. But it is worth remembering that Izzlam represents a potent threat to Western...

For those of you who have some historical awareness, you will know certain countries exist ONLY so that other, larger, more powerful countries can use them to sort out longstanding differences. Poland, for instance, is effectively a place for Russia and Germany to...

What a bothersome, blustery, horrid Monday. In my neck of the woods (so to speak), it is incredibly windy, to the point where you literally cannot walk properly outside – if you weigh less than 50Kg dripping wet, you might just end up doing the full Mary Poppins...

“We are the Dead. Short days ago…”

Seeing as this is the 105th anniversary of the Armistice that ended the Great War, and seeing as we are now already deep into World War III (or IV, if you believe – with, in my view, good reason – that the Cold War was the third one), it is worth...

Friday T&A: All This and Brains Too Edition

What a week, eh, lads? As usual, this is one of those where everything seems to happen all at once. World War III is well and truly underway, though it is so far a regional and localised series of conflicts in the broader context of a titanic clash between superpowers...

Whoo boy, do Mondays ever suck. It really is no fun to have to get up early, hit the road, and spend nights away from home. But, if that is the job, then we might as well get on with it. Hopefully your weekends were restful and enjoyable, because this week looks like...
