“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.”

Friday T&A: Redback Funnel-Web Drop Bear Edition

Nothing deep or meaningful comes to mind at this particular moment – it has been a long and difficult week, for a number of reasons, so we’ll keep it short and get straight to the closing thot to entertain us as we approach (or are in) the weekend. This...

The United States of AIPAC

The latest sign that Ornj Boi has basically gone full neoclown, came with the loss of Rep. Thomas Massie of Kentucky in his primary battle against someone named “Ed Gallrein”, whose name no one seems to be able to pronounce, and of whom no one had ever heard prior to...
