No. Just no. Today was going so well!! Just...no.

Nice strawman. Sarkeesian comes across more like Tipper Gore during the Parental Advisory movement, claiming that depictions in art influence real-world behavior, despite no hard evidence to back it up.

i would just like to take a moment to appreciate that the url for this post is "one-of-t-a-t-us-fake-lesbians-is-actually-a-raging-homo"

This is Gawker Media in a nutshell:

This many stars for you and then some.

"You wanted God to intervene and save your child. He heard your prayers. That's why I'm here.I am going to take this child to a doctor. And if you try to stop me, I am going to make you curse the day your mother ejected you from her clown car of a vagina, dipshit."

Nowhere in the Bible does it say "Thou shalt not use thy common sense and not take thy dying child to a doctor."

I'm usually all for it, too, except here, where she basically says, "This is how God made me. Deal with it." *mic drop*

All aboard the sanctimony train! Choo-chooooooo!

Dear Shakira and Rhianna,

STephen King's tweet tonight said it best: "Sad news about Hoffman. Proves again a self-evident truth: don't fuck with the White Lady. White Lady always wins."

You GO!! ^5

The Catholic Church has been consistent in terms of life. No death penalty, no abortions. Big surprise. At least we're seeing consistency in dogma, return to a focus on compassion, on loving thy neighbor, feeding/clothing to hungry and poor. Being good stewards of the Earth, and being humble. Seems like some

I have a Muslim friend - he wished me a Merry Christmas this morning. He thinks the whole concept of being offended by someone elses religious holiday is silly. His children will get gifts - because he likes that tradition and doesn't see anything about it that violates his own religion. I have even seen him dump

I'd extend that a bit further and say that while it would be excellent for his fellow Christians to look more toward him than some more...uh...attention-seeking models, those of us who aren't benefit from him as well. I spent an awful lot of time watching clips of his old shows when I went through a nasty depressive

That's a lovely, kind, compassionate suggestion, because I'm an atheist and I think that I have a lot to learn from Fred Rogers and suspect many other people do too. He's one of those people who strikes me as being the very best sort of Christian and the very best sort of person. If you've never read it, this interview

I wouldn't be surprised if a significant number of Muslims could quote Jesus' actual teachings better than most intolerant Christians. Both religions are violent and fucked up, but Islam places more importance on scholarship. Whereas the scholarly Christians are mainly Jesuits, who generally don't tend to stay or do

Ugh. You reminded me of the 'dickwolves' comic, so of course I had to go back and look at it.

God didn't create "no homo." Assholes did.
