Got this email from JulietEcho in response to my last post about my struggles with anorexia. It was touching, so you get it too. Hi JT, I’ll admit, I’m not a regular reader of your blog, but I’m vaguely familiar with you from Friendly Atheist mentions and from Blag Hag. When Jen mentioned in her [...]

Just in case any esteem for humanity had crept into your skull since yesterday, there’s this asshole. Anti-gay bullying is not bullying at all; in fact, it is “peer pressure and is healthy.” That’s according to Rich Swier, an activist with the Tea Party Nation.

Last week, the atheist movement kicked its assault on religion up to eleven. Fuck it, we rolled up our sleeves and cranked it up to fucking twelve!!! No introducing legislation dictating the private lives of those outside our in-group; no blaming natural disasters on our enemies. Fuck that. Those tactics are for snuggly, lesser wimps. [...]

All the internet atheists are the heaviest, world-crushing elements. Greta? Hemant? We’re ready to change the game. Look at PZ all light and meager up there at the top. I’m one of the more massive atheist elements. I’m the Juggernaut, bitch. Click to make the above image larger than gawd.

This is going to be a very difficult post to write. However, when first I decided to write about my illness, I did so to increase awareness – to let the rest of the world see what goes on inside an otherwise healthy mind afflicted with a mental disorder. I remain committed to that, even [...]
