The cutting edge of feminist thought is being advanced, right over a cliff, over at Pandagon. Amanda starts off her essay with this declaration: PZ Myers found a literal goldmine of humor for us science-supporting feminists Yeah, she’s a science supporting feminist like The Sausage Casing Girls are exemplars of fashion. The Sausage Casing Girls […]

Sometimes a picture really is worth a thousand words. Other times you need a thousand words to understand the picture. In following a trackback I came across a translation of the Chinese text: Panel 1: First, select a marker of a color to your liking. Draw two nipples on the ass of your good friend. […]

I suppose I shouldn’t be too surprised to read that the blogger who runs Pandagon has come out against surrogacy which, in effect, means she’s against gay men being able to have children together because in doing so they would have to involve a woman’s uterus and her argument is that “Surrogacy is the wet […]

Next Tuesday Kuala Lumpur will host an important two day seminar on Islam and Life in Space. With Malyasian astronauts likely to be sent to the ISS by the Russians there is an urgency to the question of how Islam should be practiced in the unique conditions of space. For instance, with the station orbiting […]

I’m not an alien. With that declaration out of the way let me say that I’m starting to think that perhaps I’m not part of the demographic that CBS is targeting for their show NCIS. I have deduced though that the demographic that is targeted must have something to do with aliens, either as the […]

As some of you may know I quite enjoy going to blogs in which my comments are classed as contrarion. Unfortunately, like the fervent Marxists of old, today’s zealous defenders of the faith are just as intolerant of having dissenting opinions appear in their midst. Here’s how the feminist version of a Communist show trail […]

The Democratic Minority Leader Harry Reid blocked an amendment which would have made illegal aliens who were convicted felons from being eligible for citizenship: Senate Democrats refused to allow consideration of an amendment yesterday that would bar illegal aliens convicted of felonies from obtaining U.S. citizenship. Democrats said the amendment would “gut” the immigration bill […]

Jane Galt comments on the immigration debate and is convinced by the argument put forth by Bryan Caplan: Suppose we have an isolated society in which everyone is a genius. Let’s call them the Brains. Who takes out the garbage? A Brain, obviously. Who does the farming? Again, Brains. Now what happens if the geniuses […]

Moebius Stripper responds to a comment left on her blog by a student (not her student though) who wants to set Moebius straight about the grand purpose of education. Some highlights: – From my experience, the real learning does not take place in school anyways. – Then, what’s the real point of going to university […]

For all of you Futurama fans, Billy West who is the voice talent behind the characters of Philip J. Fry, Dr. John Zoidberg, Professor Hubert J. Farnsworth, Captain Zapp Brannigan and Richard Milhous Nixon writes that Futurama is being resurrected: And the other good news is that they’re doing 26 new episodes of ”Futurama” for […]

I think that it’s about time that the Woman’s Movement start mooting legislation barring women from consuming alcohol. I readily admit that this is an outrageous position but considering the alternative legislation that gets advanced from feminist thinkers, such outrageous legislation might actually result in an increase in public safety and a decrease in the […]

I came across this sexual assault court case and thought it would make for an interesting post. Here are the established facts: The complainant [Christine Elizabeth Watson] was befriended by the wife [Katrina Ann Carter, AKA Mrs.Ibbs] and, when the man with whom the complainant had been living required her to leave their house, she […]

Did you ever hear the tale of the salesmen who were able to sell ice to the eskimos? Well, now that global warming is reducing the world’s supply of ice, these intrepid entrepreneurs have moved onto more fertile pastures – selling the scent of woman to women: (not work safe) Men have been mad about […]

When some school administrators say that all students have the same potential, they evidently really do believe this to be true. How else to explain this report from the Chicago Tribune: Mayra Ramirez scored an A in driver’s education this year, but sitting through the 10-week class felt like a bad joke to the Curie […]

Arab-American Psychologist Wafa Sultan tells it like it is in this debate with Dr. Ibrahim Al-Khouli aired on Al-Jeezera. Watch the video to get the full flavor of the debate – she really goes on a tear. I’m not sure what to think when the first thing that comes to mind is that I’m glad […]

If this isn’t the sign of the zenith of the Age of Leftist Creationism it’s hard to imagine what else would qualify. Summers faced continuing skirmishes with the Faculty of Arts and Sciences and has chosen to resign his post as President of Harvard. Here is his letter of resignation. Related: Much ado about women […]

Remember the Canadian hoax last summer that involved two straight guys, Bryan Pinn and Bill Dalrymple, who decided to try out Canada’s new fangled gay marriage law solely for the benefits that they would get from taking the plunge? Their’s was an entirely feasible plan because the law doesn’t require consummation in order to be […]

Maybe Serbia needs to beef up its national health care system with a pharmacare supplemental, or this guy is a scientologist who doesn’t believe in polluting his body with chemicals: A Serbian man needed emergency surgery after sticking a pencil inside his penis to keep it stiff during sex. Zeljko Tupic, from Belgrade, told doctors […]

Let’s see if you can spot the bias (I’ll give you a hint) in the following report on Immigration Reform published in Newsweek: The Senate will debate three initiatives of a very different nature. First up is the so-called Sensenbrenner bill, already passed by the House of Representatives. Among other hateful features, the legislation seeks […]
