If thou gazest long into the Pit, the Pit will also gaze into thee

I think we've been reading it wrong all this time. It's actually the University of Morris, Minnesota where PZ's working, not its state cousin.

And it's probably the Faculty of Biology and Women's Studies.

Myers? He just wants to tear it all down. Celebrate anything positive? (Which in reality is what we're doing when we're mourning the loss of Williams...not at all when anything at all negative is happening. No beauty is worthwhile, only the ugliness. There's more than passing irony in the title of ...

Mansplaining doesn't cover it. Peezplaining should do it, because by the beards of Female Thor, Peez is either as dumb and unaware of his own hypocrisy as he looks, or he's an evil mastermind being the biggest hypocrite in the world for some undisclosed nefarious purpose. You mean he could be a dee...

In your current state, you are temporarily absolved of that.

By the way, i note that the anniversary of shmeargate just passed, and the post which brought me here is still up.

It's also the first time I noticed it's got a single tag: ethics. I kid you not.

No, wankers are man coming their own way. They keep it in hand.

Should rape and death threats be protected as free speech? This is a hot issue on the internets nowadays, and yes, people are actually arguing that using online media to harass, stalk, and threaten people , where I and my Freethoughtblogs hoard get to define what constitutes harassment, is a free s...

#IfIWereABoy I'd hit the lot. Tonight.

She seems kinda-maybe-sorta cool, but wow is she prolix. I don't think she'll give Carrier a run for his money, but she may be a candidate for runner-up. What makes me think that at the first sign of disagreement in the comments she'll be serving up a heaping portion of dogma? That'll be 100 rounds...

They see it, probably, but what is easier? Organizing grassroots campaigns to actually try to help real oppressed women in third world countries, or sitting in their recliners while whining about how something someone said on Twitter was sexist? These new wave, or third wave, or gen-fems, or whatev...

As it stands, this is more like AtroCities.

The new design looks terribly similar to any advertising placeholder page that a domain squatter or godaddy will put up. You know the page. You see a page that looks like that and you immediately know the domain has expired or the blogger retired. Yeah, I was reminded of the ol' Parked Domains page...

Welcome RedVelvetCamelCaps. You were perhaps wondering where all the promised misogyny and rape threats are. To this end, the Pyt has developed a most devious scheme. By putting pretty much all posts on any topic in a few 20000+ comments threads, which no one in a sane state of mind will ever manage...

That's very clever. Everybody knows a dog can't resist running after a thrown stick.

Yeah, I was thinking of Carrie.

He may also be holding an unexploded hand grenade with the pin removed under his tweed.

Does PZ know Watson's against GMO? As far as I remember PZ is an enthusiastic proponent, so if Becca thinks otherwise, he'll have to change his mind.

Nobody is saying why Fred Phelps was excommunicated in August of 2013. In no particular order, any of these could be possible explanations: 1) He's gay 2) Incest 3) Rape 4) Something nasty in a journal / computer 5) Hookers 6) Drugs (maybe he got addicted to his meds?) 7) Child Porn 8) Touched a ki...

No, no, "an Inverted Cunt".

I found a guitar in the trash some weeks ago, 't was missing a couple of strings which I repaired myself with some horsehair, parkers and superglue. Later I invited Herbert von Karajan over for a drink and a game of ouija, and he said it was a, wossisname, stradivarius. True story.

Hopefully an easier defense than the one described by my high school English teacher (an ex-monk & great influence on me) at the university of Leyden.

If FtB, Skepchick, & Jezebel required every blog post to surpass 1,200 words; their writers would be =forced= to develop their ideas more. It's simply not possible to b.s. 1,200 words of filler, several times a day, without the audience fleeing. 1,200 forces writers to improve. Or turn into a Carri...

And if you aren't a programmer, exactly what good does having the source code do you? G. 'nym beat me to it, but this is a common misconception about Free Software.

PZ suddenly has a post up lauding the Ex-Muslims of North-America. Is that an attempt to appease Anne-Marie Waters (who is sideways involved with the Council for ex-Muslims in Britain by way of Maryam Namazie)?

From: http://disruptingdinnerparties.com/2013/09/26/modeling-consent/ Soon our dance connection turned into somethingâ€¦ a bit more, as dance connections do sometimes.

PZ has shown that arguing with him is completely useless. Here he goes again, starting the hyperbole right from the title of the post. Did Anne Marie said that "There is only one problem and it's Muslim"? Nope. In the old days, PZ used the comic-sans-with-mr-gumby style only for some of the most cr...

I donâ€™t know what world PZ Myers lives in, but he needs to spend more time with some â€œprogressive western feministsâ€ and see exactly what the majority of them are thinking. Theyâ€™re not thinking about Islam, that much I can promise him. Well no, that is precisely the problem- he's spent too ...

I remember watching Carrie and there is a scene where her mother tries to kill her by stabbing her. Of course Carrie goes apeshit.

Myers explains his strategy regarding the Shermer defamation matter and presumably why he didn't remove the offending post in another post today, "Good advice for those threatened with a defamation suit", by linking to a Popehat article.http://www.popehat.com/2013/09/26/so-youve-been-threatened-wit...

That's actually an unfair criticism of PZ. You might say skeptic conferences are in general useless but then that would be a totally different discussion and PZ would hardly be to blame for that. In fact, PZ and the rest also organized that (ridiculous) FTB conference through skype that did not nee...
