“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.

How the swamp works

Until His Most August, Benevolent, and Legendary Celestial Majesty, the God-Emperor of Mankind, Donaldus Triumphus Magnus Astra*, came along and completely overturned the apple-cart of the political establishment, we never really had a good term to describe the way...

The Forever War

In most civilised nations, eighteen years is the span of time required for a child to go from a squalling wailing helpless little blob, through to the wobbly walking and falling over stage, up to actual controlled movement and motion, onward into having a real...

Bye bye, Johnny

The swamp-draining carries on: President Donald Trump announced Tuesday that he has terminated National Security Advisor John Bolton from his position, citing strong disagreement on “many of his suggestions” regarding foreign policy. “I informed John Bolton last night...
