So sick and tired of idiots who think the mere existence of government is detrimental to society. Libertarianism == anarchy == me first and screw all y’all == goodbye healthy environment in which to survive and procreate.I wonder how they could watch the Glenn Beck show while in Somalia on their laptop on the beach, without any kind of wifi internet… must be old archived videos. I’d imagine they’d be just as good to the class of person that considers Beck intellectually stimulating. Why have new episodes when the archived episodes of the Two Minutes Hate gets you all hate-ified just as well?I’m kind of happy they didn’t go for the low-hanging fruit by mentioning Ayn Rand and the pundit class’ recent chittering about “going Galt”. I might have started raging for real.
Stephanie Zvan is an analyst by trade, but she's paid not to talk about it. She also writes science fiction and fantasy, so she knows firsthand that the impact of a story is usually unrelated to its truth. As though that weren't enough to keep her busy, Stephanie is also one of the hosts for Atheists Talk, a radio show and podcast produced by the Minnesota Atheists. She speaks on science and skepticism in a number of venues, including science fiction and fantasy conventions.
Stephanie has been called a science blogger and a sex blogger, but if it means she has to choose just one thing to be or blog about, she's decided she's never going to grow up. In addition to science and sex and the science of sex, you'll find quite a bit of politics here, some economics, a regular short fiction feature, and the occasional bit of concentrated weird.
Oh, and arguments. She sometimes indulges in those as well. But I'm sure everything will be just fine. Nothing to worry about. Nothing at all.
