My least favorite thing about #humans is their tendency to prefer "feeling right" to "being correct". #willfulIgnorance #alternativefacts

@pattonoswalt I am pretty sure the tree comes from Zoroastrianism

@rickygervais I was thinking Democritus, since he had basically guessed right on what the universe is plus he seems like he knew how to party.

All of us can be a little forgetful sometimes. My Republican friends launched trillion-dollar wars and passed huge tax cuts for the rich. Then they ask why the deficit went up.

@GeorgeTakei I grew up on #Disney but the theses of their stories tend to be pretty #AntiIntellectual and vaguely #fascistic. The "bad guys" in Disney tend to be in the right and the moral of the story immoral. It just about broke my heart when I realised #TheIncredibles were basically #Nazis

Our poor brains are just not built to defend against Social media. Stop and think, check your sources and remember that outrage is easier to get into than out of. https://t.co/etTiJc4P5q #Npr #brain #socialmedia #MentalHealthAwarenessDay #mentalhealth #Mindfulness

I know it's tempting to call #politics silly and not participate but there are real world consequences to that decision.
That little bit of #Power is all we have, and it was hard fought from the hands of #tyrants at horrifying costs and they will take it back if given the chance

@ExMissionary @ThinkAtheist Oh Ok, to me bathing suit areas seem like what you could expect from your average subway #Jesus. I was picturing him kinda leaning over and rubbing his belly #Deliverance style

@Mr_Bergsma It helps to feel anonymous when doing shameful things

@touque42 @neiltyson It smells like victory

[Frank Benevolence @InbredMonkeyRPT]

@ExMissionary @ThinkAtheist What counts as weird?

@TheDemCoalition Let's go #PresidentPelosi

@nytimes Anti intellectual sentiment will likely be the death of the American Empire

@evolutionofgods I like when people #ThankGoodness as it is the tendency of people to want to help each other that ultimately saved them

[Frank Benevolence @InbredMonkeyRPT]

@hardball @amyklobuchar I can't help but feel like a life of crime should effect whether you're allowed to be President

@profhuq @monaeltahawy Have you considered that this character was likely invented to imply #women are inherently chaotic and untrustworthy? #Religion is just generally a bad place to look for female empowerment. How about #Tomyris or #Boudica or some other genuine historical #BadassLadies.

@americnhumanist They have been saying this since the first century, basically all #apocalyptic #cults assume they will be the generation to see the #EndTimes

[Frank Benevolence @InbredMonkeyRPT]

@evolutionofgods The #gods people can conceptualise are basically big humans with super powers. I guess the short answer is #vanity. A world where we aren't the most perfect special creature in the universe just doesn't taste right in our arrogant little mouths.

@stealthygeek Muppets are clearly a highly sexually dimorphic species
