“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.

As noted earlier this week in the Great Mondaydact Browser Slayer, the long read of the week was an excellent bit of analysis on the decline, fall, and collapse of the Western world by Gaius Baltar, featured at Larry Johnson’s SONAR21 blog. As Mr. Baltar pointed...
Gentlemen, has anyone here ever heard of a game called StarCraft? One or two of you, right? Yeah. It was (and is) KIND OF A BIG DEAL, because it revolutionised strategy gaming, all the way back in 1998, and essentially made Blizzard the powerhouse that it is today. (I...
A bit over a year ago, I wrote about the story of one Diana Deets, aka Coconut Kitty, who was (in)famous for posting pictures of herself on her Instaham account with VERY heavy filtering that made her look about half her true age. Sadly, the woman behind that account...

The dominant news story today is the mutiny – or rebellion, or coup, depending on whom you listen to – of the Wagner private military company (PMC) in Russia. The crisis unfolded rapidly since yesterday, at close to midnight GMT, when the titular head of...

The long-awaited Ukrainian (counter)offensive has finally begun. Indeed, as of this writing, it has been underway for a bit over a week. Last Sunday, the hohols rolled out troops and vehicles in substantial force, and began what they insist on calling “probing...
