“We are Forerunners. Guardians of all that exists. The roots of the Galaxy have grown deep under our careful tending.

The Russians are a stout and stolid people – quite literally in many cases, given their heavily potato- and bread- and vodka-based diet – and they are not easily given to panic or hysteria. They have a rather grim sense of humour which you can see...

Don’t order the snake surprise

With Corona-chan spreading her pestilent blessings far and wide at the behest of jolly old Grandfather Nurgle, it is worth asking a pretty important question: The beginning of that video illustrates exactly how devastating socialism is to a country. It does not matter...
