Re: Periodic Table of Swearing

A banned Pharyngula commenter documents his experience:

Somehow this does not surprise me.

Re: Periodic Table of Swearing

Jennifer McCreight ‏: Yeah, I've been invited to speak where like 5 people show up... Not fun Sounds like SkepchickCon was popular! :) To be fair, I believe that Jennifer McCreight is at the SSA 2012 conference rather than SkepChickCon. The top #ssa2012 tweet at the moment: .@jennifurret asked wh...

Justice sheds

Coming soon to an atheist conference near you: justice sheds!

Coincidentally, all the suspects in this video appear to be male.

Re: Up-skirtgate coda

In a small way, I can sympathize with Mr. Packard. In the aftermath of the elevator incident, I was somewhat hesitant to attend Skepticon 4 since that would involve staying in the same hotel with PZ Myers, Rebecca Watson, Greta Christina, and Jen McCreight, even though I have a significant other and...

Re: Personal details

Hi Gumby. Coincidentally I was a Christian for 21 years, then an atheist for 2.5 years as of now, and my political views (particularly on social issues) have moved to the left, but not FfTB-left. Congratulations on your de-conversion from the dogma of Jesus and PeeZus. You also inspired my present f...

Re: Periodic Table of Swearing

Orac comments on his treatment from Ophelia and friends after his remarks on Ophelia's comparison of TAM with Nazi Germany : I got raked over the coals and labeled a “bully” for saying (pointing what I considered to be a Hitler Zombie-worthy analogy) and who raked me over the coals for saying it...

Re: RSS feed?

Unfortunately, the feed still displays only 10 items, but the feed still loads normally without errors. So I'd updated the forum-based feed to 25, but not the board-based feed count - that was still at 10. I've set that to 25 as well now. Let me know how you get on, and apols for missing this earli...

Anatomy of a Bully http://isgodasquirrel.blogspot.ca/2012/07/anatomy-of-bully.html Kris Mendez, who has previously co-authored a high school bullying workshop, calls out Rebecca Watson and the FC5. As the name implies, pair bullying is serial bullying, but with a partner. Often one of the two does m...

Re: RSS feed?

No probs. I've set it to 25. Note that the blog post Evan linked to had this warning: Under "Post-based feed settings" set number of items to 10 (increasing this tends to fail) Let me know if you have problems. Unfortunately, the feed still displays only 10 items, but the feed still loads normally ...

Re: Personal details

I had actually donated $100 to Skepticon, and in return I received from Skepticon large pictures of Rebecca Watson, PZ Myers, and Greta Christina. For teh win!
