Sorry I’m late, darlings, I just got home from the dentist! Hey, look at this: the UK Advertising Standards Authority has decided that an offensive transphobic commercial is, in fact, offensive! Good to see the President doubling down on his big reveal last week, although someone might want to inform him that we have not [...]
Like an increasing number of people, I identify as an atheist/agnostic (depending on the day). As such, I don’t believe that human are imbued with an immortal soul. I’ll use the phrase “selling your soul” to mean selling out or turning on what you believe in, but I don’t take it literally. Last week I [...]

Hoy les voy a hablar sobre la microbiota de la vagina, específicamente sobre qué es, para qué la quieres y qué puede pasar cuando arrasas con ella. No, no hay un esfuerzo concertado entre los escépticos de este blog de tener un monólogo de la vagina todos lo miércoles, pero simplemente no me pude resistir [...]
För ovanlighetens skull vill jag inte berätta för er vad jag tror. Jag vill att ni ska förklara för mig vilka mekanismer som gör att man beter sig så här. Jag sitter här med halvöppen mun och skakar på huvudet, jag VILL förstå men jag kan bara inte. Av @pre_it på Twitter blev jag uppmärksammad [...]

Well, I guess I didn't make it in time. But I made one so I still want to show it off!

My vote for the contest, however, goes to mctanuki.

The voting site is a bit weird. Couldn't find a poll add-on for WordPress?
Anyway: tiddlywinks, where the heck did you find that swan photo? I spent a lot of time searching for pretty much that exact one, but I was only really able to get close-ish, not spot-on like yours.

Alicia-
Jill and I will be running contests every month and are definitely looking for feedback!
We will certainly take your request for more art-related contests! The cards were great!

Joshua: it IS an add-on for WordPress. It's right there in the right-hand sidebar, quite a nifty little plug-in.
And I've voted but I don't want to skew the public by saying for whom!

Awww, crappit! I missed the deadline to submit.
I even drew up a sketch last night in the hopes of having time this morning to finish. I reeaaally wanted to make some Darwin themed Valentine art. Stupid work getting in my way!
My vote goes to tkingdoll. Kudos to all, though.
I also vote for more art related skeptic contests and games, because otherwise I’d probably still just be a non-commenting, non participating reader. Plus, there needs to be more science/skeptic art out there, right?

I'm guessing Rebecca wrote herself in, despite having no entry! Can we PLEASE have more of these fun things though. I came a weeee bit late to get one together, but I love using my powers of snark and photoshop to make love to/for everyone. Maybe crap-based superheroes? Oooh, or seeing what the most incredible thing we can get our gullible friends to believe is a real scientific discovery. Cheerful evening all.

Just curious … does anybody know if the “in my pants” one is a reference to Brotherhood 2.0? They’re so weird, in a lovable sort of way.

I’ve never heard of brotherhood 2.0, but David Letterman use to say “… in my pants” after something else.

#1, I do not use the word "chance" because that's just not the case! Evolution is much more wonderful that that! Dawkins flips out at that word!

"I’ve never heard of brotherhood 2.0, but David Letterman use to say “… in my pants†after something else."
Samuel, Brotherhood 2.0 was a year-long project by two brothers (Hank Green, ecoblogger, and John Green, young adult fiction writer) where they eschewed all text-based communication and did a 5x-a-week video blog. At one point they discovered that many book titles get way funnier if you add "In My Pants" (or "In Your Pants") to them, and it became a running gag on the blog.
The Sound and the Fury In My Pants
The Age of Innocence In My Pants
Are You There, God? It's Me, Margaret, In Your Pants
The Call of the Wild In My Pants
Fahrenheit 451 In My Pants
The Sun Also Rises In My Pants
Starship Troopers In My Pants
Gone With The Wind In My Pants
I think you see the potential for humor here …

I'm preeeeeety sure the "in my pants" thing goes beyond some random video blog that nobody's ever heard of.
I'm also pretty sure that, like the "in bed" game with fortune cookies, it predates the popularity of the internet.

"I’m preeeeeety sure the “in my pants†thing goes beyond some random video blog that nobody’s ever heard of."
LOL, I'm sure it does. I'm just saying that's where I first heard about it. They've had several of their blogs be top-viewed youtube videos, and the most popular ones have 500,000+ views, so at least a few people have heard of them.
Especially since both of them (particularly Hank) have inquiring minds that would fit in well here, I wondered if there might be some overlap of readership/viewership. Not a big deal. 
It makes for fun title-skimming at the bookstore anyway!
