“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.”

Feel the love

The faces of peace and brotherly love I can’t believe that anyone would have the effrontery, the audacity, the bare-faced cheek, to suggest that South Africa is anything other than a happy land of rainbows and unicorns where cats and dogs live in...

Messing up matriarchy

Recently I finished up Karen Traviss’s final book of the Kilo-Five Trilogy, titled HALO: Mortal Dictata. The book itself was interesting enough, I suppose; at any rate, her work in the HALOverse did a lot to raise my dismally poor opinion of her work,...

A very Gamma movie

Economics in nine panels

The funniest jokes are always the ones that poke sharp sticks into the vulnerable points of real things, and this is no exception. If you’ve ever had to listen to an economist from a central bank speaking on television- and here I’m referring to...

The consequences of homogamy

Well… he DOES have a point… I certainly don’t mind admitting that I enjoy seeing stupid ideas destroyed when they run head-first into the unyielding wall of reality, formed as it is from the bricks of logic and the mortar of evidence. It is worth...

Bring Back Clarkson!

I’d watch it. Over, and over, and over again. Just like I already do. I’m going to go out on a limb here and suggest that the BBC’s ideological purge of Jeremy Clarkson on what appears to be rather flimsy grounds is going to backfire in truly...

The sackless Thor

If this is what the new, female version of Thor has to offer, the world is better off letting Loki win: I thought the point of a comic was to entertain? “Feminist” is actually a worse four-letter word than “NAZI” This HAS to be some...
