“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.”

The futility of higher education

One of the more painful consequences of imbibing regular doses of Cold Hard Truth is that you find yourself actively questioning everything you were taught when growing up by those you love the most. As you get older and (hopefully) wiser, and as you continue down...

“Come, then, and- if you can- take them”

It doesn’t matter how many times the gun-grabbers try to argue otherwise- it turns out that letting citizens arm themselves is actually good at reducing crime: This week, the FBI issued a report comparing the numbers of violent and...

“BANZAI, MOTHERF***ERS!!!”

Meetups

So it turned out that Matt Forney was going to be in town for a few days as a stop on his way down to what is already being referred to as the Mardi Gras Meetup of Mass Destruction. He sent out an invitation to all and sundry to have a beer with him, and oddly, I was...

Attitude

One of the first lessons that a novice learns when encountering the Manosphere is the concept of “masculine frame”. It is not a difficult idea to understand, at least in theory- you stand, walk, and talk with confidence and strength, you give off an air of...

All hail the Dark Enlightenment!!!

Apparently the Manosphere is now, according to certain breathless and all too easily startled poltroons over on the left side of the pond, run by Sith Lords of the Dark Enlightenment who all want to do Horrible, Terrible, No Good, Very Bad Things to human society by...
