This latest little bit of asshattery to sputter web-ways from Conservapedia has been around for a few days now, so you’ve likely already heard about it: Apparently, us atheists are all Fatty McTubbins, who lost our faith in god when he wouldn’t let us have the last cookie. And so now we’re brain damaged or [...]

You know who you are. No one is blaming you — it’s an addiction that was forced upon you through repeated unavoidable exposure to the catchy pop-tunes of a girl who can’t tell the difference between high-proof spirits and toothpaste.

So, apparently an anti-abortion group has organised a larger than normal protest today outside the Fertility Control Clinic in East Melbourne. I’ll be heading down there with some other people (such as Freethought University Alliance president Jason Ball) to protect women from harassment as they enter, and just generally occupy the space directly outside the [...]

In what I can only describe as an implicit dare, Laura from Brain Candy tracked down and posted a URL on my Twitter feed that, once visited, can never be forgotten. It’s a teensy bit (or a lot) NSFW, so I’ll meet you below the fold and we’ll have a bit of a chat about [...]
