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

Our strength is a luminous sun, towards which all intelligence blossoms… And the impervious shelter, beneath which it has prospered.”
There has been a theory kicking around for the past year or so that the entire Scamdemic was, essentially, invented to prevent a truly Biblical meltdown in the world’s financial markets. The roots of this theory sit with the massive spike in repo market rates...
The Didactic Mind podcast is finally BACK – after a 3-week or so delay, much to my regret, due to various (quite pleasant, actually) circumstances in my personal and professional life. The elapsed time has, however, proven fruitful, because a number of...

The latest episode of the Didactic Mind podcast is up. This week is all about economics, politics, and history, and concerns the new Cold War being fought right now between the USA and China. In this podcast, I argue that Cold War 2 can actually be won pretty easily...
First it was the Kung Flu, then it was a global economic shutdown, and now it appears that the Middle Kingdom has been hit with severe flooding: You wouldn’t know it if you were paying attention to what the never-to-be-sufficiently-cursed whorenalists of the...
