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 [...]

Mmm, love They Might Be Giants. My favorite’s Meet the Elements, but I am a TA for an introductory chemistry lab so I’m biased.
We need more of this sort of thing.

Oh by the way… just went to purchase on Amazon and the usual ass-clowns are beginning to post negative comments about the music because of it’s anti-religious pro-science message. So if anyone buys the CD/DVD special deal on Amazon please help to balance out the comment reviews.

Oh my god! I’ve always loved science, and always loved TMBG, but now I can love them both at the same time. Not unlike a good threesome…or something.

I had this preordered, so it arrived yesterday and I watched with my daughter last night. On the second time through, she came up to me and yelled, “Science is good!” Mission accomplished.

My favorite thing about this album is that they did research to make sure it was accurate. They found out that their older song about the sun contained some inaccuracies.

I heard three of these songs on the TWIS podcast the other day and loved them. Always liked TMBG when I hear them on the radio, and I may finally buy an album.

I love it. I saw them live a long time ago and they were slightly annoying because they made fun of “Canary in a coal mine” by saying “We never get tired of this one” sarcastically. But I heard an interview with them on this album and it sounds like they’ve grown up a bit and are excited to make a science album for their kids (and other peoples kids.)
Good stuff.
