Tom Hanks. Julia Roberts. I figure those two would do just about any film as long as it paid well enough and gave them the contractual minimum of 3 Oscar moments*.
Aaron Sorkin. Mike Nichols. Them? Not so much. …Okay, maybe Nichols at this point, what with his […]

Via Kevin at Slant Truth, a pop psych article is in dire need of more fisking. Purporting to share with us 10 “politically incorrect” “truths” about “human nature” by justifying all your favorite stereotypes, it’s quite a delight of an article. Kevin himself was only able to get past the introduction and first […]

Sex and money, together at last.
There, that ought to be good for a few interesting stats on Google Analytics. Anyway, DoGooder.tv is offering prizes for sex ed videos, and quite frankly I can’t see why any 15-30 year old would pass up the chance to win a scholarship or an iPhone just for ranting […]

Why IE?

I finally installed Google Analytics on PAB this weekend. We used to be on a dedicated server that gave me a fair number of standard reports on views, etc., but Google Analytics has much more usable data. For example, it’s cool to know that we’ve got peeps in places like Bahrain and Kuwait […]

Today is National Day of Remembrance and Action on Violence Against Women in Canada. It marks the anniversary of the Montréal massacre at École Polytechnique in 1989.

Apologies to anyone who tried to comment within the last day. We use a plugin called Bad Behavior to help with spam, and it went haywire for everyone who has it installed. I’ve updated it with the new patch, and hopefully all is well. Thanks for your patience, and sorry if this […]

Anyone one up for a lecture on polymers? Because in about a day or so, I can provide.

Preznit Creationizm

Call me a cynic, but now that I am finally accepting the cold hard truth of the world (namely, that Al Gore will not even attempt to be my next President) I have little faith in the Democrats winning a presidential election. Our candidates are either pro-war, formerly pro-war, pro-torture, weak-kneed on health care, […]

An article in Slate let’s Hillary know what she’s in for should she win: a nation of ungrateful fucks, regardless of how well she does.
As luck would have it, there’s new data out there about the shifts that take place when women run the world. Or at least a bunch of Indian villages.
Basically, […]

But he sure does hate the ladies:

It’s fun to observe Republican tadpoles in their natural habitat, isn’t it? It’s early, but all the signs of budding wingnuttery are there:
-Reeks of desperation? Check.
-And copious amounts of rejection? Check.
-Likes to play war games? Check.
-I mean, like, way too much likes to play war games? […]

Life is good when I forget askmen.com exists. I sleep better, I smile more, I believe in a brighter future for our children.
