@EmmaVigeland While radical atheists like me were all saying Christmas is a fine holiday.

I haven't posted on this hellsite for a full year now. I left saying I might check in now & then, but I wouldn't post. This is my first check-in; I haven't missed it.

Now I depart again. Join me on Bluesky or Mastodon! You can do better.

Let me know where to find you, good people.

Goodbye, and fuck you very much, Elon Musk and other fascists.

[PZ Myers 🕷 @pzmyers]

Enough. The anti-semitic trolling by that horrid billionaire-tyrant has convinced me to leave. I'll continue to watch this account for a few weeks, but I won't be posting on Xitter anymore, although I might occasionally post this reminder.

@PressX_toDoubt Yeah, that's a weird thing to say. He wasn't an atheist. He doesn't even understand how atheists think.

@wc_ratcliff I agree that philosophy is useful, but I think you're in for a rude surprise if you expect evolutionary biologists to welcome you.

@MustelidDwyer I've been handling all these false widows and black widows daily, and never been bitten.

I might be getting cocky.

@touchmoonflower The leaves also provide important shelter for overwintering invertebrates. Save the spiders and ants and beetles!

YES. Lol.

@MadScientistFF Nah.

Watching Dr No. First impressions:
• Bond is a chickenshit coward, afraid of spiders.
• Ursula Andress is a terrible actress. What did they see in her?
• Andress killed someone with a spider. Improbable.
The movie just hates spiders.

@erichovind It used to be that reconciling one's faith with reality was a good thing.

Did it make all your faith melt and run out of your ears?

David Rives (ex-husband of Jenna Ellis) recruits ignorant guests to spread lies about spider venoms. More liars for Jesus. You're not changing the narrative, David & David, you're just spreading the bullshit.

Texas is just an exaggerated symptom of a deep rot in how we promote a college education.
