BOOBQUAKE!!!

I wholly endorse this idea:

On Monday, April 26th, I will wear the most cleavage-showing shirt I own. Yes, the one usually reserved for a night on the town. I encourage other female skeptics to join me and embrace the supposed supernatural power of their breasts. Or short shorts, if that's your preferred form of immodesty. With the power of our scandalous bodies combined, we should surely produce an earthquake.

A functioning Turing machine! OK, it doesn't have an indefinitely extensible tape, but you get the idea.

Unconscionable

I'll be the first to admit that I am WAY behind on news. I have a pretty strict policy of not following news because of how it affects me. So I apologize if this is old news to you, because I just learned about it.

I had heard about Cynthia Stewart wanting to bring her girlfriend to her school prom and how the school had decided to cancel prom rather than allow it. What I hadn't heard is that, after a lot of run-around and a court battle, a prom was held where she was allowed to bring her girlfriend, but it was a FAKE, with only 7 students in attendance. THE REST OF THE SCHOOL WAS AT ANOTHER, SECRET PROM HELD AT THE SAME TIME.

I am so beyond disgusted about this. Honestly, I don't even know what else to say.

Douchebag Wonder

Wonder, connected with a principle of rational curiosity, is the source of all knowledge and discovery, and it is a principle even of piety; but wonder which ends in wonder, and is satisfied with wonder, is the quality of an idiot.
