“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.”

Falling hazel nuts

The (non-radioactive) fallout from last week’s “Oreshnik” strike on the giant, sprawling Yuzhmash plant in Dniepropetrovsk is still working its way through the collective West’s rather constipated intellectual systems. In public, Western officials are saying all sorts...
The rods of God

The rods of God

Very early in the morning of Thursday, November 21, 2024, the skies above the Banderastani (for now) city of Dniepropetrovsk opened up for a few moments, and a hail of what looked like nothing less than Zeus’s own lightning bolts, slammed into the ground. They hit the...

The God-Emperor and the end of the Banderastan War

As we all come off the emotional high of the God-Emperor’s epic victory – and WHAT a high it is!!! – we now find ourselves faced with the much more pedestrian realities of what he will do, given a second shot at the Cherry Blossom Throne and the Imperial Purple....
The new Cold War

The new Cold War

The picture you see above is one that the Russians have been assiduously disseminating around the world, since the start of the BRICS summit in Kazan’. That global gathering wrapped up yesterday, and it proved to be every bit as world-changing as we were originally...

The gift of coal

The gift of coal

Back in mid-January 2023, we received news that Soledar – literally, “gift of salt” in Russian – had been captured (or liberated, if you prefer – and I do) by Russian forces. This opened up the road for the bloody, terrible, hellish...

Playing the wrong game and losing the right one

Playing the wrong game and losing the right one

It is not an exaggeration to say that the global geopolitical scene is changing at a speed and with a violence that we have not seen since the early 1990s. In eras past, people were fortunate to see one landscape-changing redrawing of the global order in a lifetime,...
Domain Query: Goldbugging

Domain Query: Goldbugging

The Domain Query series is back, with a new episode inspired by a (lengthy) request from LRFotS Randale6, about how to achieve some degree of fiscal and geographical independence from the long, and increasingly corrupt and decrepit, arm of Uncle Shmuel: By...
The Neo-Tsar’s gambit

The Neo-Tsar’s gambit

For those of you paying attention to global politics at the moment, you may be at least vaguely aware of some sort of “peace summit” that will take place in Switzerland, starting tomorrow. The idea behind it was to gather various Western and Global South...
