Nathan at FTB squeezes out a typically stupid post: Siobhan has a very well-constructed and sourced takedown of some people who are trying to claim trans activists are opposed to science.

I have a memory of Savage cancelling and making up for it with some sort of appearance for Becky somewhere. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

Her mental illness could explain the apparent death of Quiz-a-thing and her recent Twitter obsession with gaming.

Good points, Really? and Guest. Still a bit skeptical, but that could be because I'm really cynical from all the drama.

No. Thought about it for a minute, not going to lie. I don't want any type of relationship right now.

Carrier spills details -- Skepticon's Lauren Lane (you've seen her hammy introductions of PZ in several Skepticon videos) is the one who wrote the notice banning Carrier for being dangerous to staff and attendees.

The Vatican puts it thusly.

In fact, correct if I am wrong, but I believe it's the Catholics that believe that there is no one in heaven yet and that doesn't happen until the end times.

I disagree. I think the Trump University fiasco is a better indictor of what's behind Trump's mask.
