Do not waste your time on the useless
Let us get one thing out of the way immediately: I am perfectly aware of the rich irony involved in telling people not to waste their time on useless things, when this very website specialises in...
Rise and take command
Brothers, as I said in my daily message to my Telegram followers recently, we are in for very, very difficult times ahead. Western political leadership has jumped straight off the Crazy Cliff, and...
When your coffee needs more DEUS VULT
I have been listening to a lot of both Latin and Greek hymns of late. Something about them is both very calming, yet energising, at the same time. One, in particular, is very good - it is apparently...
The hard road out of Gammatude
