Re: Periodic Table of Swearing
I would LOVE to see one of the Victim Party walk into a police station and say they are being stalked:
FTB/Skecpchick) Help me!!! I'm being stalked!
Policeman) This is very serious. What is the nature of the stalking?
FTB/Skecpchick) People are reading my public blog and my tweets and discussing what I say on them!

Feminism has its good points, others that are a little more problematic:
Those “activities†and those “theories†cover a lot of ground, some of it more tenable than others.Definition of FEMINISM
1: the theory of the political, economic, and social equality of the sexes
2: organized activity on behalf of women's rights and interests

Re: Periodic Table of Swearing
Technically a diminished 9th isnt a valid chord tension, as it would simply be a doubling of the octave (a semitone lower than a min 9th), and thus a chord tone, not a tension. Common chord nomenclature dictates that a note name by itself indicates a major triad. What youre left with is an Eb major triad with a doubled octave note. A consonant and rather happy chord, thereby calling the slymepit a happy place.Philip of Tealand wrote:Ermm guys

This meth-head thing I was once involved with used to thieve rent money and what not and when confronted, got in the habit of calling cops and squealing abuse. I used to insist the cops take her to the local women's shelter - at which point she would immediately think of weasely excuses for them not to. Cured her victim habit pretty fast, at least as far as I went. She knew full well the shelters that deal with real world problems would have spotted her for a fraud straight away.

Also, Eb Dim 9th is, according to Seth Green's character, a mans chord, you could lose a finger attempting the diminished 9th, therefore I condone double rape.

Re: Periodic Table of Swearing
Although, generally speaking - and I emphasize that, that’s not to say that an “inside voice†can’t exhibit some pathologies of one sort or another. I remember listening to a video “podcast†by Oprah of a book by Eckart Tolle – A New Earth, to some extent an amalgam of Buddhism and psychology. One of his arguments was that we tend to focus on the narratives in our own minds – the inside voice – and tend to have some difficulty recognizing that and stepping outside of it.rayshul wrote:What some people say is horrifyingly offensive and riddled with insults is someone else's "inside voice".
Dawkins has an interesting discussion on that point in The God Delusion in the context of the processes by which we have believed in various gods:
By which token, the argument seems to be that at least the more fundamentalist religious are essentially totally deluded in hearing god as that other protagonist – they haven’t yet integrated that into the self, the inside voice.Dawkins wrote:I was led to think about it while reading the American psychologist Julian Jayne’s The Origin of Consciousness in the Breakdown of the Bicameral Mind, a book that is as strange as its title suggests. It is one of those books that is either complete rubbish or a work of consummate genius, nothing in between! Probably the former, but I’m hedging my bets.
Jaynes notes that many people perceive their own thought processes as a kind of dialogue between the ‘self’ and another protagonist inside the head. Nowadays we understand that both ‘voices’ are our own – or if we don’t we are treated as mentally ill. …. The ‘breakdown of the bicameral [two chambered] mind’ was, for Jaynes, a historical transition. It was the moment in history when it dawned on people that the external voices that they seemed to be hearing were really internal. Jaynes even goes so far as to define this historical transition as the dawning of human consciousness. [pgs 392-393]

It's all about women being called 'cunts' for Ophelia. As is often mentioned here, she uses that word quite frequently when compared to those who she complains about using the term.
Those are our choices. Be called a fucking cunt, and ugly, old, fat; be photoshopped; be misrepresented and lied about; be relentlessly harassed via Twitter and trolling; or stop writing.
That’s just how it is. We were irresponsible enough to decide to be women, so there it is. We can write, or we can avoid constant harassment; we can’t do both. As Stewart said yesterday (and Stephanie quoted him): The real message is “being a woman does not entitle you to protection from the extra hostility you get for being a woman.â€

From the photos of Hendrix I can see why many historians would think that he was in fact white - they were just using the 60s version of photoshop to hide his true knowsplainer attitudes.

Probably I had this one in mind:somedumbguy wrote:http://www.sciencebasedmedicine.org/ind ... e-get-fat/
A conclusion like this relying on the precautionary principle in no way suggests Taubes is a charlatan or that he has been debunked.Has Taubes destroyed the old low-fat myth only to create his own new low-carb myth? Rather than jumping on the low-carb bandwagon before his ideas are properly tested, the precautionary principle suggests that it might be more reasonable to follow a moderate diet like the Mediterranean diet (or to follow Michael Pollan‘s stunningly simple advice to “Eat food. Not too much. Mostly plants.â€), to limit “empty calories†from simple carbohydrates like sugar, to eat a variety of vegetables and fruits, to choose low calorie density foods that are more filling, to limit meat intake, to limit salt, and to keep looking for behavioral and environmental ways to change our calories-in/calories-out balance.
It suggests a difference of opinion, but actually not even a negation of Taube's views, more like a dubiousness.
http://www.sciencebasedmedicine.org/ind ... more-18136
Try Novella, if you like it worded more strongly (particularly the lecture I linked earlier) :
http://theness.com/neurologicablog/inde ... lism-diet/
The bottom line is this. If one isn't a physician (or a qualified dietician) and offers medical advice that is opposite to scientific consensus, one is - by definition - a quack and a charlatan.
Further, you may not see much discussion on medical and sceptical sites about Taubes's work, because he is basically peddling the Atkins diet and low-carb principles.
Some debunking thereof:
http://www.quackwatch.org/06ResearchProjects/lcd.html
Anecdotally, but more entertainingly - Atkins died an obese and his wife has been trying to hide this fact from the press.
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/1454414 ... tkins.html
This topic can be easily researched from a pro-science sceptical viewpoint. You shall find that the conclusions are inescapable and the scientific consensus points firmly in one direction.

They are too big for their hearts (apparently), and they just give out early. Some can make it to 11 or even 12, but some only make 5 or 6. Smaller dogs generally live longer than larger ones, I'm told.real horrorshow wrote:Eight? I thought dogs were good for 14 or 15 years.

We can write, or we can avoid constant harassment; we can’t do both. As Stewart said yesterday (and Stephanie quoted him): The real message is “being a woman does not entitle you to protection from the extra hostility you get for being a woman.â€

Re: Periodic Table of Swearing
Hall was just Volatire's sock. Mind you, Voltaire did say something like "if you're a writer, you're at war", which would please the A+theists, but then he also said "I always made one very short prayer to God. Here it is: O God, make our enemies completely ridiculous! God granted it."Phil_Giordana_FCD wrote:I think I've said so before, the original quote is not Voltaire's, but Evelyn Beatrice Hall's.

"their entire agenda is a silencing tactic"
Huh?
That's interesting...especially when bloggers like Ophelia, PZ, Stephanie, etc contribute to a 'call-out culture' and many people are afraid to express dissenting opinions for fear that they will be targets of the next character attack campaign.

Thunderfoot should feature somewhere in that list.

Aye. I forgot about the Tfoot business. To be honest there is so much blocking and silencing going on over the most trivial shite it's easy to forget even the major episodes.

Re: Periodic Table of Swearing
He's also gone and hidden all the old comment threads at his old scienceblogs blog. He has hidden, or maybe flushed down the memory hole with a delete, the 3 historical ElevatorGate threads. Those are the ones where Dawkins commented and everyone freaked.Tony Parsehole wrote:justinvacula wrote:http://i.imgur.com/DuZKh.jpg

I have them saved, although I'm not sure if I've got each thread saved at its fullest number of comments though. I would repost them for historical reference, like I did with the older Slimepits, but Pezus would freak out and claim copyright. Well, he'd need a bit of help since it wouldn't be at a place that has a flag button like blogs and youtubes, but eventually he'd claim copyright. Of course, his real beef is his own embarassment over EG. He could have had a lot more paying hits by leaving those comment threads up, but he must be more embarrassed than he is in need of that extra ad income. PZ claimed a while back that he had no idea where his comments went. Uh huh, sure PZ.
Here are the three threads with the now hidden or deleted comments.
1. Where he defends Becky's bullying of a woman, Stef Mcgraw (sp?) in her audience. This is also where Dawkins' first comment (Dear Muslima) appeared.
http://scienceblogs.com/pharyngula/2011 ... ame-names/
2. The conversation/fight continued here where PZ gives us his PUA advice.
http://scienceblogs.com/pharyngula/2011 ... ngs-guide/
3. The final thread. Article just bitches at Dawkins. This is also where Dawkins wrote his second and third comments.
http://scienceblogs.com/pharyngula/2011 ... more-unto/
And here are screencaps of Dawkins comments from the above threads, including the first and kind of famous one.

Re: Periodic Table of Swearing
Re: PZ's latest post on abortion:
Even as an atheist I'm very uncomfortable with the idea of post-viability abortions, though I can understand their necessity in cases where the health of the mother is at risk, or a pregnancy is the result of rape/incest etc. I also understand exceptions past viability for foetuses which show crippling genetic defects, though I can't justify a) why that should only apply to 'defected' foetuses and b) what the criteria are to adjudge something as having 'crippling' defects. Thus, I even struggle to find a defined position from which to argue my own case, but they just feel instinctively wrong to me, even without the whole 'sanctity of life' religious argument.
I'm genuinely interested, does anyone know what the A+ or FtB position is on post-viability abortion? I would ask in the comments section over there, though I imagine I'd just be shouted down as a misogynist for wanting to take away the rights of women to decide. Personally, I'm unashamed of my position on the issue and at that stage I do see the 'rights' of the viable foetus as entering the equation and in some (even many) cases, overriding the rights of the woman.
That's just another unfortunate result of their ever being tenets of an atheist group. I am quite convinced that God is non-existent, but I don't feel that the "socially just" position which results from that has to be one way or the other.
I regularly see this perspective proffered in the abortion debate. I've always considered myself pro-choice because I support the right of women to have abortions before a foetus is viable (or as some laws state, around the 24th week I believe). I thought that was a fairly common pro-choice position, but the more I read, the more confused I get. Is this argument supposed to apply to the entire pregnancy? I haven't read many other posts from FtB discussing this aspect, and I don't see a sentence anywhere defining if that is or is not the case.PZ wrote:Yes, it’s another man pontificating on the rights and privileges of the fetus as if the pregnant woman were not there. It’s astonishing how completely women vanish when they get pregnant — it’s as if some people can only see women as an incubator for the Holy and Sacred Child.
Even as an atheist I'm very uncomfortable with the idea of post-viability abortions, though I can understand their necessity in cases where the health of the mother is at risk, or a pregnancy is the result of rape/incest etc. I also understand exceptions past viability for foetuses which show crippling genetic defects, though I can't justify a) why that should only apply to 'defected' foetuses and b) what the criteria are to adjudge something as having 'crippling' defects.
