“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.”

War and culture, Pt. 1: Why the West keeps losing

A long time ago, in a township far, far away- which is to say, probably sometime around early 2009 or thereabouts, in what I’m guessing was probably a semi-remote part of Virginia- a certain retired ex-Army Ranger and infantry battalion commander sat down to...

The unsurprising return of apartheid

It is a basic law of nature that, if you insist on persecuting a minority, stealing from them, mistreating them, and chasing them out of your country through intimidation and brutality and outright murder, then that minority will react to preserve its culture and...

We’re gonna have to ditch the umlauts…

Did you ever wonder what our favourite metal songs would sound like without all of that lovely distortion that gives really great heavy metal its eardrum-raping sound? No? Oh. Well, then, don’t wonder no longer: Bloody hell. That makes SLAYER sound like...

On skill versus training

As you may know, I have tried at several different points to answer the question of when and where MMA is more effective or “better” to study than Krav Maga. This is not an easy question to answer, and there are a number of different perspectives on...

Janet Bloomfield had a guest post up from a black mathematician by the name of Dr. Jonathan David Farley a few days ago, in which Dr. Farley attempted to explain (blacksplain?) away the fact that NO black mathematician has ever been awarded a Fields Medal. The Fields...

For the God-Emperor!!!

It’s still way too early to be breaking out the champagne- or, if you’re like me, the 18-year-old Speyside single-malt- but it would appear that Trump-Muad’dib is opening up a bit of a lead over his increasingly creaky, screechy, shrill, and...

Freedom tits!

A certain model and (((actress))) by the name of Kate Upton weighed in on the row concerning sportzball players who have decided to take a knee when The Star Spangled Banner is played just before a game on September 11th: In my opinion, the national anthem is a...

“No time for losers”

It is not often that I find myself agreeing with much of what Piers Morgan has to say- especially these days. He is an arrogant ass- which is actually fine in and of itself, since I am one too, and so are many of the people I admire and follow. (As, I imagine, are...

FINISH HIM!!!

Apparently Nick Denton- you may remember him as the guy who rather enjoys the vicarious thrill that one gets from watching people hurting and suffering due to the actions of one’s underlings who founded Gawker- is upset that Peter Thiel has no intention of...
