“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.”

Dear Japan, WTFH?!

First I came across this at John C. Wright’s blog: Yes, that is in fact a bunch of schoolgirls driving tanks for a sporting event. And then I came across this today at Vox Day’s pad: They’re still scraping what’s left of my brains off...

Peace through strength

The Gipper’s core philosophy continues to make sense: As much as I respect and admire Bill Whittle, it is worth pointing out one big problem with his analysis. The reality is that the cancellation of the F-22 is probably one of the very very very...

Buy their new album. NOW.

Maybe not quite as epic as a Derek Riggs creation, but still not bad Canadian metal act UNLEASH THE ARCHERS just released their new album, Time Stands Still, last Friday. I’ve been listening to it pretty much non-stop for the past 3 days, alongside LOST...

“We might have been a great and free people”

That about sums up the state of the culture On this day in 1776, 56 free-born Englishmen signed a document in Philadelphia that became the rallying cry for a new nation. The text itself is a masterpiece of rhetoric. It follows a simple and well understood structure;...

Joint Strike Flopter: flying piano edition

Christendom, arise!

Normally, I couldn’t care less what the so-called “Pope” Francis is up to on any given day; as I’ve pointed out before, his understanding of the theology of which he is supposedly the arbiter and shepherd is considerably worse than my own. But...
