“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.”

Lies, damned lies, and 404 reporting

My opinion of whorenalists and presstitutes has gotten progressively worse over the past 7 years, but every time that I think it has hit bottom, somehow, these people manage to plumb ever lower depths of mendacity. At this point, it is entirely reasonable to argue...

When economists fail MAFF and LODJIK

The good people over at Visual Capitalist recently released a big-ass graphic that has been making the rounds of late, to mark the fact that the global economy hit US$100 TRILLION in terms of total annual output. This is an amazing feat and a great milestone, to be...

A rather piquant video has been making the rounds on teh innarwebz, showing a Federal BATFE agent being arrested and tased by local police in the USA for, basically, being a colossal arse. The whole clip is well worth enjoying in full, simply to get a feeling for the...

“We gotta eject, Mav!!!”

Gentlemen, have any of you ever tried ground turducken? This is a particularly weird kind of “pseudo-roast” that comes from stuffing a deboned chicken into a deboned duck into a deboned turkey. Apparently, this odd concoction is popular in certain parts of...

Most scammers are not exactly known for subtlety when sending out their fairly naked attempts to get you to fork over your hard-earned money to them. The most hilarious ones always involve some Nigerian who apparently stopped studying English at about the 5th Grade...

Life isn’t supposed to imitate art like that

Sometimes you see a story in the news where you think to yourself, “the people behind that idea cannot possibly be so stupid as to turn that into reality, right???”. And then you read on a little bit, and you realise that not only are they that stupid, but...
An enema for “emanations”

An enema for “emanations”

As pretty much all of my American readers know all too well, the whole issue of “abortion rights” in the USSA has been one of the most divisive and poisonous in the culture wars for 50 years. Justice Harry Blackmun’s nonsensical and utterly tortured...
