“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.”

The Euzis didn’t do the maths

The gay diversity-hire Prime Minister of Ireland – called the taoiseach, which apparently is pronounced “tea-sack”, which opens one up to all sorts of hysterical puns due to the fact that the current one is gayer than springtime – has tried to...

The God-Emperor’s epic smackdown

No, I’m not referring to that meme that originated from HanAssholeSolo about Donald Trump beating up CNN – hysterical though it was. I’m talking about the severe dressing-down that His Most Illustrious, Noble, August, Benevolent, and Legendary...

Vostok beats Fossil, every time

If you know anything about watches and watchmakers, the phrase “Russian watch” probably fills you with incredulous amusement. It should not be possible for the Russians to make a watch that is: A) Totally reliable; B) Extremely rugged; C) Very good value...

Brexit or bust

I am of course a bit late to the celebrations concerning the Conservative Party’s victory in Britain on Friday. This is because of a combination of lack of time and considerable laziness on my part. People who know me, know quite well that I am basically...

Domain Query: Hinduism as power play

Reader JohnC had an interesting question for me from the Mondaydact Browser Crash for this week: Hey Didact, what are your thoughts on the Indian bill on citizenship? No Muslim can apply. The article that he references in his question can be found here, and I’m...

Of laws and men

If you happen to be something of an Anglophile, as I am, then it is difficult to avoid the conclusion that PommieBastardLand has gone into terminal decline at this point. It is impossible to escape the headlines that come out of the Sceptred Isle every day that show...
