I decided that it would be fun to combine the two series we’ve had on this blog: the link encyclopedia and oldies but goodies. Here are some links to my posts from the past:
Here is one of my moments of outrage against the vapid writing of Amanda Marcotte: “Got it? Women feel sexual desire in response to being paid more money and being given more help, encouragement, and compliments. From men, as far as I can gather. This is what passes for mainstream feminism this days, folks. Give her a huge cash gift, pay for a nanny and a housekeeper, praise her, and her desire for you – or for somebody – will shoot straight up.”
And here is a sad story of my friend who self-diagnozed impotence.
I also enjoy ridiculing the impotent mewling of the anti-Clarissa camp.
And, of course, making fun of textbooks that push weird stereotypes about Russians is always fun.
I actually tried teaching Russian once but it wasn’t a very successful attempt.
And since we are on the subject of Russians, here is a story from my Baltimore days and the perception of Russians in an anarchist cafe.
This is one of my most memorable experiences from a Russian restaurant in Madrid.
I’m giving a lecture on the war on drugs in a couple of hours, and here is my old post on the subject.
And since we are on the subject of teaching, here is a discussion of whether there is indoctrination in US colleges.
I love Canada but sometimes it gets too crazy.
And here are some thoughts on making fun of religious beliefs.
Since I’m on religion, here is a post on how I found religion.
And just one more post on religion.
And here I defended a colleague from Cornell and shared some of my experiences there.
Tell me if you like this new series!
