“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.”

He’s back

One of our best has finally returned to semi-regular posting after a long absence. Halfbreed, who graciously provided his insights and advice on the game some time ago, disappeared for a while after about May this year, but then he resurfaced a few weeks ago. If...

Defining Curie-Hultgreen Syndrome

Given that we are apparently only months away from seeing the first ever female Chairman/woman/person (who really gives a toss about the politically correct nomenclature when it comes to the creature from Jekyll Island?) of the Federal bloody Reserve, I think...

The relentless pursuit of perfection

The Long Road If you’ve started taking regular doses of the red pill, you’re going to realise pretty soon that you face certain shortcomings as a man which you know that you must overcome. And when you embark down the road of serious, constant, rigourous...

What has been seen…

Recently the last season’s episodes for How I Met Your Mother hit Netflix. There was a time in my life where I did watch this show, fairly frequently; I thought it was one of the funnier sitcoms out there. But my views on the roles of men and women in...

Form Versus Function

That’s the true difference between bodybuilders and powerlifters: This is taken straight from the StrongLifts Facebook page, which I think is publicly accessible (and that’s the only reason why I can get this pic). It illustrates perfectly the difference...

So THAT’S What They Mean By “Special Ed”…

And here I thought “Hot For Teacher” was just a really funny and really silly VAN HALEN song that only gets played at strip clubs these days- I didn’t think it would actually happen in real life: A Dallas teacher has generated a buzz around the high...

Theoretical Offence?

The inimitable Blackdragon posted a piece a while back that, apparently, caused several readers to erupt into frothing rage: Let’s take a Star Trek moment and say a tear in the space-time continuum caused an alternate timeline in which I was born a female instead of a...

Seven Years in America

[I suppose I should have written this about a month ago so that I would get the timing right, but as I’ve noted before, I’m kind of a lazy bastard. I like my couch and I like my afternoon naps on weekends, dammit…] August 22nd, 2006. A young man...

The Endpoint of Game

Danger & Play answered a reader’s question recently about why he doesn’t really post on game anymore; his respectful disagreement was a masterpiece: Think of game like an investment strategy. Ideally we would all have substantial assets that would...

Vibrant Banksters

Steve Sailer posted an interesting except from a book written by a former Lehman Bros. executive regarding the way diversity was forced down the throats of employees at that firm- right around the time that the housing bubble was clearly becoming a huge problem: One...
