Our mission

Are you that special person who - weary from trudging the endless superhighways - just longs to camp next to a glorious oasis of the mind? Do you desire to explore new frontiers, splash in shared ideas, fill your belly with the refreshing fruits of inspiration, and bask in the gentle rays of fond reflection?

Well, you can fuck right off. This, my friends, is not that place. This place is... The ShadowLands.

Boris Isayev, RIP

The ShadowLands pays its respects to Boris Isayev, the Russian who reportedly died on stage while accepting his award for winning a pancake eating contest.

Little is known about Mr Isayev, except for his enthusiasm for eating pancakes, and a tragic tendency to take things a little too far.

While this news is indisputably sad, I guess we can only take our cue from the crowd, who are reported to have continued celebrating after his body was taken away.

"During Maslenitsa week, meat is already forbidden to Orthodox Christians, making it a "meat-empty week" or "meat-fast week". During Lent, meat, fish, dairy products and eggs are forbidden."
Or, it can be a "meat-your-maker week".
