Also, I noticed that the counter for sending Secular Woman to Skepticon has been stuck at $1245 for a couple of weeks now. Six days to go until the deadline.
Thoughts?

Re: Periodic Table of Swearing
Currently in A+ forum land, where they're talking about the haters. It seems as if they've decided that A+ is only for the marginalised and people-without-privilege, which is confusing because by their definition a bunch of us here would be considered marginalised or people-without-privilege (PWP, eh! HAH). Via Setar:
Hng. It's not for the marginalised. It's for people who enjoy the idea of being victims. Big difference.Atheism+ is not a big tent. It's not intended to be a big tent.
Big tents are for and by the privileged. Marginalized people may exist inside a big tent, but the will of the big tent will always be skewed towards its most privileged members -- see the Democratic and Republican parties in the United States.
This is a small tent. This is a tent of the marginalized. This is where we go when we're sick of people in the big tent trying to push us around.

you are a shallow cunt.codelette wrote:What if physical attributes are discussed as part of an anthropological studies of sorts? Like, sometimes I wondered what how do the the males that were going after the "young pretty" ladies looked like or their how were their personalities. Call me a shallow cunt, but given how the female specimens look I can only imagine the he-beasts the males were. I also sometimes think that if these "young pretty" ladies were placed on the clubs I used to hang out at they'll have their wish of being left alone wanted.
No, PZ, I am not a MRA. I am just a woman that had to deal a lot with male attention back in the day. Call me an observer of human nature.
I'm here for you, baby.

nope, not this woman.welch wrote:PUA: every guy who is able to have sex with someone not their hand.
It's most used by manipulative shits playing the "nice guy" game. I'm sure every woman on the board has dealt with it. It's the whole "oh, our relationship is TOO SPECIAL for mere animalistic things like sex. I love you in a pure, unvarnished way."
and I thank the bloody universe for that
Re: Periodic Table of Swearing
This is a small conference that happens in Orange County, California every year. The person who started it and works hard to put it together was very excited to get PZ Myers and Greta Christina as speakers in 2013. (I don't think he follows all the drama)
http://freethoughtalliance.org/fta/annu ... /speakers/
He just added Matt Dillahunty today.
I wonder how this will work out? This is a small conference, so not as easy to avoid people.

Re: Periodic Table of Swearing
Hahaha. Well, I guess it can sound rapey enough if taken out of context. However, I'm not aware of any formal strategy for "last minute resistance" that includes force, though I'll admit that I left the scene several years ago, so I might not know...Pinker wrote: The worst aspects of the PUA world, and where things could go horribly wrong, and where the detractors have a case to make against it, are the 'negs', 'last minute resistance', 'kino escalation'. These are certain techniques used so that the PUA can "F-close" (fuck) the "HB9" (hot babe with a rating 9 out of 10). Last minute resistance (or LMR) in particular is the worst pua-term. It reads like something out of a rapists guidebook:
LMR is an acronym for Last Minute Resistance. This term describes the feelings a woman goes through once she is in a seduction location and resists a man’s attempts at physical escalation. This is often considered to be part of her ASD or Anti-Slut Defense, but the two terms are not interchangable.
from http://www.pualingo.com/pua-definitions ... tance-lmr/ [nsfw]
From reading that definitions page though, it seems like "freeze out" [That's never what I called it. Actually never had a name for it. I'm entertained by how every little thing has its own name though. Very systematic...] is actually how I choose to handle "last minute resistance". If things start getting warm and she puts a pause to it, I just chill out for a few minutes, and then politely let her know that I have an early morning the next day and either send her on her way, or take my ass home. I know that enough women see sex as a "gift" that they give from themselves to men, [Yes, I'm being heteronormative. Bite me.] but I don't, so I'm not about to grovel for it.

Actually, PZ probably has more beef with another speaker, Josh Rosenau (who is, in PZ's defense, stupid and whiny). Another example.
It is amazing how many 'enemies' he has amassed, though.
I live near there (well, in LA), so I might show up and bring me some popcorn.

4K isn't bad for Oz, relatively speaking.
It certainly outdoes the Yank-wank Tam-scam attendee/population ratio even further!

It make me feel so fucking oppressed when misdolichohippus dicks make fun of their barcodes.
I mean: it IS EXACTLY LIKE THE HOLOCAUST!!!
Don't you insensitive prostates know that 'people of Judaism' had fucking tattoos as barcodes by the Nazis as shown in the documenray Raiders of the Lost Fark? Do y0ou know that through your lack of awareness of trigger situational factors, you are DOUBLING DOWN on the MISOGYNISTIC oppression by forcing Ass related flashbacks??????

You don't care about zebras? You probably don't care about other animals then, incuding humans, specifically women.
At least according to this logic.

Though I'm not sure if it's funnier that someone in that post is claiming that typing without capitals is discrimination.

"Confronting" Becca
So, according to Rebecca Watson, this is the sort of "confrontation" that should have someone banned from a conference:
(quoting from original Pit)
I'm interested in the sequence because I suspect that, based on their standard operating procedure:
The DMCAing preceded the tweet in question. That is, he was doxed for his criticism of Rebecca Watson. A later paranoid interpretation of a tweet became the post hoc rationale. Although they claim he was fired for his tweet, more likely he was fired because Rebecca and her friends (she admits to pissing off tweeters, banning them and letting her minions do the work) did a Justin Vacula on him.
If someone can give me a sense of what was said when by whom, and explain it to me like I'm an idiot, it would be appreciated.

gender traitors international
June 28, 10:16 pm
The evening of 9 July, I will be attending “a private meet-and-greet with Steve Novella, Bob Novella, Jay Novella, Rebecca Watson, and Evan Bernstein from “The Skeptics’ Guide to the Universe.†Come join us for some light refreshments, get your picture taken with the hosts of SGU, ask them that question that you’ve always been dying to ask, or just hang out with like-minded folks who are also interested in all things skeptic and science.â€
Any requests? I’d be more than happy to give Beccie a letter from the slimepit, and/or just leave her a card, and yes, I will be wearing an ERV – Gender Traitor badge.
Plus I think I shall make a Gender Traitors International badge as well.
I should have business cards with gender traitors international, and my name to hand out…
So, is the the guy they DMCA the guy who apparently tweeted something rape-y? Hard to know what that was as Rebecca's definition of confrontational, as we see above, is creative. Any screen caps of that tweet? Is this the guy they got fired?JackRayner wrote:By the by, Mykeru, if you're looking for more on the doxxing of @ElevatorGate, you can find Sulky Amy's proxy here.
As you may have already seen from his Tumblr blog, 3 of his posts were DMCA'd by Amy. These DMCA claims were filled on July 25th, July 30th, and August 9th, but he didn't actually notice until August 17th, a few days after GirlWritesWhat posted the video about the DMCA's against her. Around the time, as people were brainstorming ways for GWW to make a counter-claim without having to expose her personal information, [feminists have done some nasty stuff to gender-traitors like her before...] someone suggested this fellow. GWW did something else, but when EG got DMCA'd, I began PM'd him for a bit [I don't think he'll mind it being mentioned, it's nothing exceptional] and suggested that he try that fellow out. He told me he would counter-claim on his own, and I left it alone. I never quite asked him why. It was by the next day, I believe, that I caught word that he was being doxxed by the idiot linked above.
TL;DR:
- Sulky Amy DMCA'd @ElevatorGate thrice between July 25th and August 9th
- @ElevatorGate noticed on August 17th, at which point he either counter-claimed on the same night or the following day.
- By the 18th, Sulky Amy's proxy was created, and began doxxing @ElevatorGate.

Yes I have and the offer still stands. In fact I have always made it clear anyone I talk about or have a dispute with is welcome to come on my show and clear up any misconceptions or to tell me what they think of me directly. I have a certain amount of respect for anyone who will do that no matter what it is they have to say.

I read the title and was like "naw, motherfucker didn't go there...". Then I read this:ReneeHendricks wrote:Stephie Zvan just puts fingers to keyboard and vomit flies out: http://freethoughtblogs.com/almostdiamo ... -activism/
*Everything* put out on their forum and what they spout on Twitter regarding A+theism is nothing but feminism. Does Zvan even use that raisin-excuse for a brain?
This white bitch is really conflating her middle class, white little club non-issues with the motherfucking one-drop rule? Why don't you go ahead and say next time that woman is the nigger of the world?It took me a while, but I finally figured out what was so familiar about it. It’s the one-drop rule rewritten for our situation.

Re: Periodic Table of Swearing
We're going to need our own dictionary pretty soon, and with entries like that I think it would outsell PZ's red-shifted opuscule.real horrorshow wrote: Poor agapornis is taking a right slapping over there, with our old pal LeftSidePositive going for some kind of Chyme Pit* record post length. It's a re-run of a familiar theme: "Boo-hoo, people are being big meanies by insisting the word atheism means what it actually means, instead of all the other shit we want to hang off it."
Tough buns Zeffalump!"Disbelief in the existence of a supreme being or beings." That's it. You want to go wibbling on about feminism? Well there's already a word for that. It's 'feminism'. Aren't dictionaries great?
Quoth the Zeffalin:
