I stumbled across this video via Dark of All Trades, and it annoyed me. This tradcath weirdo calling himself “PreConciliar Radio” has a question for atheists that he thinks will rock us back on our heels and make us doubt our beliefs, which is rich coming…

The latest SpaceX launch was totally successful, proceeding exactly as intended. Yeah, they planned to explode on landing. It’s a feature of the SpaceX launches–they guarantee a spectacular and photogenic explosion with every launch. Stay tuned for more…

That strange pink blob is my right knee, adorned with the fading signatures of myself and the surgeon. It’s lumpy and a bit swollen, still recovering from the stabbings, marked by a pair of white tags. I’m now beginning to feel somewhat normal, 4 days…
