“We are Forerunners. Guardians of all that exists. The roots of the Galaxy have grown deep under our careful tending.

How to fight to win

I was talking with one of my readers in real life – yes, that does happen from time to time – and we got to jawin’ on the subject of what true and total war actually looks like, riffing off of the fact that His Most Benevolent and Legendary Celestial...

Medicare for thee but not for me

As most of you know by now, Senator Bernie Sanders from Vermont was rushed to hospital a few days ago and two stents were inserted into his arterial passages in order to unblock the blood flow in his body. The irony of this very high-quality and very high-speed...

Le Seigneur est avec nous

I have not yet said anything about the terrible Notre Dame fire, mostly because I am not interested in virtue-signalling about how much I care so very deeply about a monument that I last visited when I was, I think, about 4 years old. (Or so my parents tell...
