I think you've missed a large point of Charlie Jane's argument in that the idea is not that atheists don't read science fiction, but that certain atheists who are inclined to smugness should read science fiction.

Exactly. "Weekend at Bobbie's" "The French Mistake" "The Man Who Would Be King" are all phenomenal episodes, and it has started getting back on track this season with the introduction of the Trans and more of Garth.

So is the Christmas special entitled "Doctor Who: Attack of the Deranged Mutant Killer Monster Snow Goons"?

Simon Pegg got raging mad about these Khan rumors. I think his anger is justified too, since all we've been talking about is the possibility that Benedict Cumberbatch (or, BC, because writing out his whole name is exhausting) is playing Khan. Then there's the whole negative discussion about cultural appropriation with

In addition to the Hook/Swan shippers, we also, somehow, have Hook/Aurora shippers who were undeterred (UNDETERRED, I say!) by Sunday's episode. We've stepped into a weird place, guys.

If number 2 happens, I'm going to be so mad.

I seriously doubt GRRM would kill off Jon Snow.

Aw. I think Tyrion has a fondness for Myrcella. I'm pretty sure there was a point in the book in which he was relieved that she was safe in Dorne.

Seriously, your comment prompted some of the best responses I've seen in a while.

It's healing to know that other people were psychologically traumatized by the horror show that is E.T.

DANNON COFFEE YOGHURT. Is that an east coast thing?! Can I get a whole crate of it? I don't think the Midwest is quite ready for that yet.

...yes. I'm starting to notice a pattern here....

Also, super cute actor playing Gus Gus. RIP Super Cute Actor Playing Gus Gus. You were too cute for this show.

Wow, nice to see a sense of camaraderie all of a sudden out of nowhere? You clearly stated that you seem to think Jezebel is immune to the same trolls that we, the commenters on io9, had to suffer. I'm telling you it's not, for the same reason that you say here: Gawker is a family of sites that shares many things,

It was on io9 because it was written by our editor Annalee Newitz. Jezebel didn't post it because Jezebel didn't write it. The fact that she is our editor and wrote the damn thing should give you an indication of the values and politics of our site, but you would rather characterize us by our trolls?! Logical. So

Um, those aren't our dudes. They're sad sacks of crap who troll our more controversial articles in such numbers that the logical people that frequent there are drowned out. Don't tell me, as a site, Jezebel can't sympathize.

I would really rethink your characterizations because our fearless leader, Annalee Newitz, is a fantastic crusader for women in science and science fiction as well as for women and their health in general. We also have a a great many women writers over there who are so vocally NOT what you're describing (and who

The super misogynists usually only stay as long as it takes us to run them out on a rail.

Yes, same for Jewish people. Jesus.
