“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.”

Friday T&A: Bluenami Edition

Friday T&A: Bluenami Edition

Well, so that happened… The entire FUSA suffered a colossal bout of electile dysfunction on Tuesday night, and the result is that large parts of the country will now have serious blue balls for the next 2-6 years. Well, all I can say is that, if people are dumb enough...

Friday T&A: Life is but a Scream Edition

It is that time of the year again when little kiddies go around from door to door begging for candy. I saw a decent number of children, dutifully accompanied by their parents, doing precisely that, during my evening constitutional today. Of course, if those parents...
Friday T&A: Lob Spike Smash Edition

Friday T&A: Lob Spike Smash Edition

Just a quick one for today, chaps – it has been a busy week, followed by a quiet weekend spent slaughtering Grubs in Gears of War: Ultimate Edition – y’all might remember it as the remaster, back when The Coalition actually knew how to do good...
Friday T&A: Word to the Weiss Edition

Friday T&A: Word to the Weiss Edition

The clown car crash that is the Drumpf White House continues, with the hiring and firing, in record time, of the latest Press Secretary. It is amusing, in a rather sordid way, though the internal chaos in the current Administration really just reflects how disjointed...
Friday T&A: Fuelled Edition

Friday T&A: Fuelled Edition

Yes, this is late again, and that is because I was at a concert on Friday, and then spent most of Saturday recovering. If you have ever been to a death metal concert – never mind a Viking death metal concert – you know how much that takes out of you, especially as you...
Friday T&A: Border Dispute Edition

Friday T&A: Border Dispute Edition

I missed the instalment from last week, out of a combination of sheer laziness, and a dire need for sleep (due to having what in most cases amounts to a mild cold, but for some reason ended up being a proper Man-Flu). So, this week, in the wake of the MFIC’s...

Friday T&A: Golden Roofs of Miklagaard Edition

I am finally back after a couple of weeks off, during which time I was essentially doing a whole lot of nothing. And that was no bad thing. This description is not entirely accurate, of course, but this was a family trip, not a solo one, and as such, the pace of...
Friday T&A: Love Bites Edition

Friday T&A: Love Bites Edition

At this rate, I suppose I really should rename this segment, “Weekend T&A”, but that really does not have quite the same ring to it. So we will stick with what works – for now. The title of this poast comes directly from the name of the lovely lady of the week....
Friday T&A: Freefall Edition

Friday T&A: Freefall Edition

This poast is rather late, even by my quite dreadful standards, but all I can say is that it was a busy week that required some HARDCORE recovery. And that is precisely what I was doing yesterday. Part of that process involved a Netherflix documentary about Boeing,...
Friday T&A: Binface Edition

Friday T&A: Binface Edition

People living in PommieBastardLande have been subjected to a very weird spectacle over the past few weeks, wherein one Nigel Farage, leader of the Reform Party – which is really just WEForm, to be honest, but that is another matter – got into serious trouble for...
