Sometimes, when the feminist propaganda gets unbearably crazy, it helps me to remember that all this is ripe for satire. To this end, I have created a character called Ms. LonelyHearts, who appears from time to time on my channel (The Critical G) Rather than invent feminism strawmen, Ms. LonelyHearts simply reads feminists' own words with a little more drama than they might have intended.Here's hoping it gives you a few laughs!Dramatic Reading of "Schrödinger's Rapist" by Miss LonelyHeartshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YlK_aQjzqrQ&index=2&list=PLSKoTIjE4E2PhVGkC_GdC1LYZXsrYIf7HDramatic Reading of Adria Richards' Donglegate Blog Post by Miss LonelyHearts https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dnH3CW9x_lc&index=3&list=PLSKoTIjE4E2PhVGkC_GdC1LYZXsrYIf7H Dramatic Reading by Miss Lonelyhearts: "PIV Is Always Rape, OK?"

It occurred to me that "Hard Wired" by Tracy Chapman is a fine description of growing up in the Statist matrix, especially the line "All the secrets and the mysteries / You've been selfishly withholding". What do you guys think?

My first intervention in a public abuse of children

Well done, Timur! I would have been shaking all over in that situation. -
Hi, I just came across this report on Uber, an app that allows you to treat any registered user as a paid taxi: http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2014-06-10/uber-protests-spread-across-europe-as-taxi-app-backlash-grows.html No prizes for guessing who doesn't like it... As one person put it: "A few lines of python code toppling an entire industry"

Thanks! Firefox on Android isn't too bad, but it would be great to have a native app.

Research needed: "The Fall of Germany"

Wenn du möchtest, kann ich auch diese Informationen durch meinen YouTube Kanal (The Critical G) entweder auf Englisch oder Deutsch (oder beide!) präsentieren. If you like, I can also present this information on my YouTube channel (The Critical G) either in English or German, or both. -
Can anyone suggest an Android app that I could browse the forum with instead of a mobile browser?

I've been fielding a lot of questions on my channel about "the free market" and a common retort I get is an example of Big Corporations running wild -- that is, until you consider that the only reason they have all this power is because they made a bee line for the very government institution which is supposed to protect us from such excesses... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NvVVObVO59Y&list=UUmkSQppUOY6r7qd-sbcftBQ

Here are some thoughts on a common feminist complaint about sexism in the workplace: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8BxdJeeAaWk&feature=youtu.be&a Sorry if this post belongs in the Feminism/MRM section, I didn't notice it before I posted this.

It'll be at a bar in Melbourne, so it'll be strictly a local event, but feel free to market as blatantly as you like

Yes, 30 -- I'll amend it! Are you going to the FDR meetup on Thursday?

The Odessia: Philosophy through Fantasy

Hi everyone, I'd like to share a writing project of mine called The Odessia. It is an exploration of philosophy, economics, self-knowledge, child-rearing, feminism, and all manner of interpersonal relationships. The heroine of the story is a young woman called Odessa, who travels from place to place by means of magical bridges. In each locale she encounters individuals or societies who embody or which have adopted as supreme values certain principles. The narrative is driven mostly by Socratic dialogue: Odessa is genuinely curious and her relentless questioning (à la The Little Prince) either generates conflict or resolves it. If you'd like to read it, all the chapters that have been written to date (15 so far) can be downloaded in a single Google Document. Alternatively, I am recording readings on YouTube. Please let me know what you think, I'm very open to feedback! Also, I'd love to collaborate with other liberty-minded artists.
