Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
I need to write up a decent argument against astral projection that isn't, "yo, that's fucking crazy."
Blargh.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

How about, "Prove it."
Or "If anyone could really astral-project, they'd be able to prove it by gaining information they'd otherwise be unable to get, and then they'd become millionaires and write books and go on talk shows... unless they all work for some secret government agency."
Ok, forget that last part.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
For this, a long Friday, I am posting one of my favorite Drew Carey Show quotes:
“Oh, you hate your job? Why didn't you say so? There's a support group for that. It's called EVERYBODY, and they meet at the bar.”

A kinda' interesting article on the brain: [link]
I really love this blogger's description of it, though.
A new study just published in the journal Neuron describes how the brain handles surprise. Exploding is far less common that you would expect.

Well, you see, it HAS been proven.
So I asked, "where? who proved?"
"there's been studies!"
So I ask, "By whom? Have these studies/tests/experiments been verified by an independent lab? Who paid for these studies/tests/experiments?"
She's looking into it. Which is what I really wanted.
I'm writing a new book, and this piece is on a late night conversation about astral projection, my neighbor has been taking classes to learn how to do it and transport herself to the eighth dimension.
I often have difficulty explaining things. She was adamant that consciousness is energy, and since energy can be transferred, our consciousness can just separate itself from the body and hover around like a bee.
Often in whackjob concepts like astral projection, people use sciency terms and such to make it all sound more legit.
