Or else, what?: Regarding that xkcd comic
http://orelsewhat.blogspot.com/2011/01/regarding-that-xkcd-comic.html
Or else, what? Tuesday, January 4, 2011. Regarding that xkcd comic. About finding answers when dealing with serious illness was posted on xkcd recently. One of my brothers was recently in the hospital for a while and I have been thinking about him. I like the comic. I like science because my job holds me in tension between concrete, observable facts, and the fact that scientific knowledge is always changing; what we know is reliable but we're always learning surprising new things.

Alex's essays: Chronic conditions
http://alexszatmary.blogspot.com/2011/06/chronic-conditions.html
Tuesday, June 14, 2011. At five in the afternoon last Tuesday, I was walking to the bathroom and I paused and rubbed my eyes with the heels of my hands and I realized that the reason why I had had trouble getting work done was not because I was lazy or just generally distractible but because I have bipolar disorder and an anxiety disorder and so I have bad mood days sometimes.

After that, she understood how those kitchen stairs worked and knew that the best hiding place around is under the kitchen cabinets, so I have to put up a baby gate to keep her out of the kitchen.

Alex's essays: July 2011
http://alexszatmary.blogspot.com/2011_07_01_archive.html
Wednesday, July 20, 2011. Pennies in the parking lot. I hadn’t eaten lunch and it was five. I had some toaster-oven pizza, and then I took a shower, packed my things, and headed up toward Philadelphia, to visit my girlfriend. On my way, I was still hungry, so I stopped at Burger King to get a veggie burger. I played Nelson Tethers: Puzzle Agent. As I ate. My throat was sore from the stress, so I had some ice cream for dessert. I’m Gonna Be (500 Miles). I went to Grilled Cheese and Co. I’m gonna be. And a...

The Sinister Red Sofa Is Watching You: March 2010
http://sinisterredsofa.blogspot.com/2010_03_01_archive.html
The Sinister Red Sofa Is Watching You. Sunday, March 14, 2010. Live Free Or Pi. Today, March 14th, is Pi Day. For those who are unfamiliar with the tradition of Pi Day (about 84.324% of you, give or take), you celebrate the constant pi. Originates. Those people should be reminded, however, that Greece follows a little-endian date format in which they write March 14th as 14/3. So for it to be correct in Greece, Pi Day would have to be on the 3rd day of the 14th month. (Smarch? Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

The Sinister Red Sofa Is Watching You: September 2009

The Sinister Red Sofa Is Watching You. Wednesday, September 23, 2009. Derek Webb - Stockholm Syndrome. Movement of the past century has its great, bald spiritual leader. The Indian independence movement has Gandhi. The Church of Satan has Anton LeVay. Gen-X, alt-rock-loving perpetual grad students have Michael Stipe. Hit the stores earlier this month, and it's got many folks a-talking. Matthew was buzzing about it. He's much more of a Derekologist. Than I am. Tim recently put out this post. Shakers and G...

Or else, what? Friday, June 22, 2007. Fixing the Mac Trash Can UI. In Mac OSX, there is a trash can that lives on the dock. One of the neat things about Mac OS is how it emphasizes that everything goes from somewhere to somewhere - a file doesn't get deleted, it goes into the trash can, and you can pull it back out again, which I do sometimes, because I get overzealous and throw things away that I ought not.

Or else, what? Friday, June 3, 2011. Link: The Process Of Leaving. Lauren, who recently found my blog and contacted me, is now writing at The Process Of Leaving. About her process in leaving the church. I think that readers of this blog may find her account interesting; she's describing how she feels as she has conversations with people that are important to her as she leaves.

Dad bought a sailboat from the widow, and she threw in these ugly, uncomfortable, faded orange backpacks, mainly to get rid of them. Links to this post. Wednesday, August 15, 2007.

Or else, what?: On "Why Are Atheists So Angry?"
http://orelsewhat.blogspot.com/2011/03/on-why-are-atheists-so-angry.html
Or else, what? Tuesday, March 15, 2011. On "Why Are Atheists So Angry? Rabbi David Wolpe wrote Why are Atheists so Angry. Atheists are angry because we are members of a cultural out-group. We're not in as bad of a situation as, say, racial minorities, in that we have the choice to keep our mouths shut. We're are an out-group, though. How many atheist characters do you see on TV? Atheists aren't necessarily stodgy, we just look for the unknown in things that can be studied, rather than beyond the material...
