  1. Nothing to see here just keeping track of Rebecca Watson's fabulous new video on those sex dolls--oh, sorry, I mean robot teachers--in the New York classroom...

    Hmm, yeah, why isn't it just a laptop?

  3. ICE is a piss bucket full of losers (my summary)

    "They struck data gold when they found that Argentina kept meticulous records of their military officers throughout the past century, including graduation ranks, promotions and retirements. This allowed them to track officers who served during the country’s “Dirty War” from 1974 to 1983, during which time the military junta hunted down and murdered or “disappeared” leftists. What the researchers found was that officers who performed poorly were pushed into early retirement, but were offered a last ditch effort to save their careers: they could join Battalion 601, who performed the bulk of the “secret police” work, torturing and murdering dissidents. Those who joined Battalion 601 were able to rejoin the regular army, where they enjoyed promotions above those who had performed better than them and therefore stayed in the regular service."

  5. "Even the average red-blooded flag-waving Fox News viewer knows that this is Israel’s war, that Iran posed no threat to Americans, and that all of our lives are about to get worse because of it. “Go die in a desert because Zionists paid a pedophile to start an unnecessary war” isn’t exactly the stuff of Patton. Why not tell the poor saps that they’re going on a Holy crusade to put down the infidels and hasten the return of Jesus Christ?"

  7. After Cristina Rad’s accusations about #LawrenceKrauss I was happy to reject him for good even though I'd enjoyed his debates on religion.

    But I never knew what to do with #RichardDawkins. Certainly people I respected in turn respected him, his work seemed quite perceptive, and his debates with theists were incisive and civil.

    But he also behaved in ways I found bizarre, and I was left just appreciating his good work but not amplifying him in any way because I didn’t know who I would have been amplifying.

    Now I do.

  9. Rebecca Watson kills it!

    "I'm here to drink eggnog and where a silly little paper crown on my head. Cry about it, Bill O'Reilly.

    I'm an atheist and I celebrate Christmas because Christmas is a secular holiday now.

    So Merry Christmas, ya filthy animal."

  11. This Rebecca Watson video regarding trump/Juvenile Delinquent migrant information is worth checking out.

    She plays a clip from the 8/27/2024 Ohio City Commission where Drake Berentz, a neo-nazi (who goes by a racist pseudonym) first raises the conspiracy that Haitian people are eating pets. This is about a week before EriKa Lee first posted this on FB on 9/5/2024.

    So trump/JD are repeating a conspiracy theory from a neo-nazi.

  13. Ah, yes, the modern genre of "Youtubers & comedians doing the job the #press should be doing"...

    We shouldn't need a law forbidding news outlets to reproduce press releases without fact checking or comment but since we obviously do, there should be one.

  16. There's literally no christianity on the Christian Right™️. Religion to them is nothing but a cudgel - a tool with which to assert power over & oppress other people.

    The real mystery: As confirmed by this video, decent christians exist, so why in the name of their Sky Gnome are they letting the absolute dregs of humanity be in charge of branding for their faith!?

    I didn’t expect to turn this into a racist topic, but what doesn’t these days? 🤦🏻‍♀️

    Edited to add: @rebeccawatson 's videos are really worth to be watched 🙂👍
