I saw this posted to Lamebook, a website that collects at least marginally-amusing social media “fails.” I clipped the image because there’s a comment in the original that I found pretty offensive and over-the-top, and it’s really beside the point as far as we’re concerned here. My point in the re-post is mostly to say: [...]

And… we’re back!
I promised on Twitter a while ago that I would be back to blogging once the school year started. I know that means something different depending on where you are and what flavor of school you are in, but for me, Labor Day Weekend marks the end of the summer and the day after that [...]

YOLO? You really think so?
I know, I know, the whole internet has mocked this “YOLO” thing to death by now. I’m sick of it too. But one of the recent snarky criticisms I saw got me thinking of another kind of snarky criticism I haven’t actually seen anyone make yet … which, of course, is where I come in! [...]

Is it a religion or a cult?
I’ve seen this image in a few places, and I found it so elegant I just had to post it here. I’m not sure it’s 100% true; certainly people can be honestly mistaken about what they might have witnessed, and can also get caught up in the excitement of a crowd. We see this in [...]

The basic idea is that you post the videos along with some cute little [...]

I’ll wish you a Merry Christmas
Odds are you’ve seen this image floating around the ‘net. If you haven’t, it’s high time you give it a read. It seemed most appropriate to save it until today to post. I wrestle with the idea of participating in certain explicitly religious customs, because it’s important to me not to legitimize and encourage baseless [...]

Friday Link Roundup #36

Now I really understand the depth of your love and inspiration.” Gregory Paul and Phil Zuckerman ask, Why do Americans still dislike atheists? Many thought-provoking statistics follow. Check out the first Q&A in this week’s Dear Prudence column! There are [...]
