My wife and I just finished Kaos on #Netflix tonight and it was really good, and it turns out it was cancelled anyways. It was a pretty excellent retelling of Greek mythology, and it's a shame the writers didn't get to finish with a 2nd season. Still recommend.

A few years ago, Bill Nye the science guy debated creationist Ken Ham about evolution. The last question was "what would change your mind?" Bill Nye said "Evidence." Ken Ham said "Nothing can possibly change my mind about this." I think about that a lot.

We no longer live in a country with three branches of government (Legislative, Executive, Judicial). We live in a country with two parties (Democrats, Republicans, and FU if you're neither) This is bad on so many levels.

Strump want to "pacify" San Francisco next, justifying sending in the troops with the infamous Insurrection Act. Yet there is no rebellion against government here. #SF Insurrection; an act or instance of revolting against civil authority or an established government. Miriam Webster Dictionary

You know what I'd like to see in #Congress? I'd like to see the state Representatives sitting together instead of clumped with their own party. You don't represent a freaking party. You represent your state, your region, and all of your constituents. Senators, too. Don't like it? Too bad.

I've finally started season 3 of ST:SNW and WTF is Pike doing saying the lord's prayer? I could accept Chapel and Spock talking about "faith" assuming they meant in themselves but seriously... Either Pike alone just lost points with me, or the showrunners. Hopefully not both. #StarTrek #SNW

Fine (or not really), we can't for whatever reason have gun laws because somehow the Supreme Court failed to understand what a well regulated militia means. So let's regulate the hell out of the bullets. REGULATE THE F-ING BULLETS.
