Bill Nye is my favorite
Dawkins needs to get over himself

Bam. Dawkins is a jerk.

How can anybody be that hostile to Bill Nye. Look at him. It’s like Bill Nye’s innate goodness and love for humanity and science is repelling him.

How the fuck does Bill Nye expect this to happen? What do you want to do, force women to enroll in science courses, regardless of whether or not they want to do it? Just for the sake of having “enough” women? Why the fuck do these fractions matter so much? It’s not like people are holding guns to our head and threatening to kill us if we become interested in science.Maybe, just maybe, a lot of us DON’T FUCKING WANT to be scientists. Is that a crime?

Seriously though…I mean, I love him to death, but…
Why is society so INTENT on pushing women towards STEM careers?
Maybe I don’t WANT to be a scientist. Maybe I don’t WANT to wander around with beakers or microscopes or figure out how to cure AIDS or study the effects of the rising temperature on the ocean tides. Maybe I don’t WANT to sit in an office working with numbers all day, or punching numbers into a calculator balancing the books for some big-shot company.
Maybe I WANT to be a teacher or an artist. Maybe I WANT to read and analyze literature, or work as a historian, or make music. Maybe I WANT to stay up all night, pouring over dusty tomes and handling ancient objects under the moonlight, or sweating under the sun on a dig in Egypt. Maybe I WANT to be a chef or a baker, or work with disabled children in schools. Maybe I WANT to be in a traditionally ‘feminine’ profession.
Why is it only the ‘pretigous’/’well-paying’ jobs that we push women towards? You don’t see a huge push to have an equal balance of women being garbage collectors or window washers or anything. No…let’s leave that up to the men, right? Ladies, if you want equality, you’re going to have to take equality on ALL the levels, not just the perceived ‘top.’
Cut it out, society. I don’t need your faux-feminism. I need you to stop telling me what I should and should not do and let me make my own decisions about what I want to do with my life.

BIll, I love ya, but this sort of thing needs to happen organically,mpt by establishing quotas.

“this sort of thing needs to happen organically, not by establishing quotas”
this

Bill Nye…Time Lord?

I haven’t seen the clip, but based on this gif set alone I didn’t interpret as “forcing women into science for the sake of equal representation” but as “Everyone is capable of being a scientist.”, however, like I said, I have no context for this.
Our new tattoos!

My wife and I finally got our ink!

My wife got the bear paw prints because she is the momma bear and Evelyn the cub, I got the pokemon Eevee because my daughter’s name is Evelyn and we call her Eevee for short.

Thoughts

1. I feel like I nearly lost my wife today. I felt fear.

2. I m still trying to understand macros and micro nutrition in order to make a decent meal plan. Thoughts or suggestions for education sources?

3. I have coffee flavored Whey Protein. COFFEE! Yes…

4. I have never seen the film “Roots”. That is all.

This probably applies equally to what is happening in parts of Europe also, given the awful legacy of Thatcherism and Blairism in particular. The mantra of many governments seems to be PRIVATISE, MONETICISE, DISENFRANCHISE, thus destroying systems that generally worked very well.

We shouldn’t be profiting from our students who are drowning in debt while we’re giving great deals to big banks, – the same banks, that destroyed millions of jobs and nearly broke this economy.

POLL: 76% Of Americans Support Doubling NASA’s Budget For A Mission To MarsThe American public overwhelmingly support a doubling of NASA’s budget in order to fund a mission to Mars, according to a recent survey. The poll, commissioned by Explore Mars, a nonprofit organization, and aerospace contractor Boeing, also demonstrated a high degree of enthusiasm about human exploration of Mars.The survey found that 76 percent of Americans agree that NASA’s budget should be increased to 1 percent of the total federal budget to fund initiatives, including a mission to Mars. Currently NASA’s budget represents less than 0.5 percent of overall federal spending.Read more about the poll’s findings in our latest blog post athttp://www.penny4nasa.org/2013/05/15/poll-americans-overwhelmingly-support-doubling-nasas-budget-mission-to-mars/Write Congress and let them know you support doubling NASA’s budget for a mission to Mars:http://www.penny4nasa.org/take-action/
