“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.”
Here we are at another Friday, and what a week it’s been. If you’ve been keeping up with things – and I’ll be the first to admit that I generally haven’t – then things definitely have been moving at warp speed. The most interesting...
Tomorrow is the 4th of July, and that is a special day for those who love freedom. That is, of course, the day on which the original 13 American colonies declared independence from their British progenitor, and thereby sparked a war that raged for the next 4 years,...
It’s hot and getting hotter out there in the world right now, lads, and that is creating both crisis and opportunity for us. On the one hand, it is hard to see our most beloved monuments and institutions being torn down by crazed mobs while our supposed...
Once more unto the breach, dear friends, once more… Actually, these days, it feels like all we are doing is trying to plug the cracks in an increasingly broken dam, against a flood that will destroy us all. It feels like a colossal exercise in futility. And...
In all of my time on this Earth, I don’t think I’ve seen too many weeks crazier than this one. And that’s saying something, considering how batshit insane things got during the Great Panic a few weeks ago. It’s actually hard to believe that we...
Friday rolls around again, and I do believe it’s a full moon this week as well. It’s been a rough week (again) for yours truly, but then I say that pretty much every week. This year has certainly been the Year From Hell for many if not most of us, and...
It’s been another long and difficult week for many of us. Honestly these days it seems like we’re just sitting on the sidelines and watching as the world burns – which is the literal and actual truth for people in Minneapolis and increasingly in...
This ‘ere blog full of rants and tumbleweeds, hosted by yer own very ‘eavy, very ‘umble servant, mine own good self, the Didact, just crossed the TWO MEEEEEELLION pageviews mark yesterday. There was a big spike in traffic which shot me right...
Well, gents, it’s been another rough weeks of broken dreams and painful conflicts for many of us, mine own good self included. But spring is very much underway, and you can see the results of that growth and change all around us right now. Parks and sidewalks...
Another week gone, and it’s been another nutty one for all of us. Our Benevolent Government Overlords continue to tell us that it is necessary for our own safety to keep us cooped up and going stir-crazy, despite mounting evidence that general lockdowns do...
