Anarchy Moment #0059 – Correlation Is Not Causation

Posted on April 11, 2014 by TGOApril 11, 2014

Yet again a journalist can’t tell the difference between correlation and causation. This is another example of how to think critically. And I had to come back and edit this ’cause I can’t fucking spell “correlation”. http://www.cynlibsoc.com/mp3/am/AM-0059.mp3Podcast: Play in new window | Download Anarchy Moment 0263 – A Four-fecta Of Smackdown.

Anarchy Moment #0058 – Open Source Software or Giving Your Information To Corporations

Posted on April 7, 2014 by TGOApril 7, 2014

You can choose to keep giving your personal information to corporations or you can choose otherwise. As with all things in your life . . . The beatings will continue as long as you allow the beatings continue.

Anarchy Moment #0057 – No You Don’t Have The Power To Change It.

Posted on April 4, 2014 by TGOApril 4, 2014

Can you change the behaviour of governments and corporations? No you can’t. You are a slave to the State. You no more control it’s direction than ticks control a dog. “people need to know about this. so unfair. so deeply unfair. and we have the power to change it.” http://www.upworthy.com/ever-heard-of-benzene-poisoning-me-neither-but-samsung-and-apple-have-1112 Transcript. Taken from the link above. Narrator: This is what matters. The experience of a product. Will it make life better? Until every idea we touch enhances each life it touches. Woman: When I was in third grade my mother left home to work as a migrant worker. When I … Continue reading →

Anarchy Moment #0056 – The Broken Window Fallacy Isn’t A Fallacy If You Replace Broken Windows.

Posted on March 31, 2014 by TGOMarch 31, 2014

In a discussion with other theatre techies I make some new discoveries about the Broken Window Fallacy. http://www.cynlibsoc.com/mp3/am/AM-0056.mp3Podcast: Play in new window | Download Anarchy Moment 0263 – A Four-fecta Of Smackdown.

Anarchy Moment 0055 – White People Love TED Talks

Posted on March 28, 2014 by TGOMarch 28, 2014

This post explains exactly why left-wing statist white people love TED talks so much. “One of the easiest ways to create something that white people will like is to create something that will allow them to feel smart but doesn’t require a large amount of work, time, or effort. There is, however, a catch. Whatever it is that you create cannot be a shortcut. You see white people like the idea of getting smarter quickly, but they don’t like the idea of people thinking that they are lazy.” I also make fun of white people for driving a Prius and … Continue reading →

Anarchy Moment #0054 – Why Women Use Social Media More Than Men.

Posted on March 21, 2014 by TGOMarch 21, 2014

This morning while lying in bed and not thinking about sex I put 2 and 2 together and got 4. ‘Cause I do boy math. Not girl math. Not Common Core math. I’ve talked in the past about how women are driven by their need for validation, conformity and obedience. I also ran across an info-graphic with statistics indicating that more women than men use social media. Then just like wham-bam it occured to me why more women use social media. If anything I’m rather disappointed that I didn’t think of this blinding obvious fact prior to now. Women are … Continue reading →

Anarchy Moment #0053 – My Brain on Too Much To Accomplish

Posted on March 12, 2014 by TGOMarch 12, 2014

A very short podcast in the middle of me being productive. I’ve got more projects in motion right now than I can keep track of. In theory I’ll have a full episode of Stating The Obvious up on Friday. And of course theory and reality are the same thing. In theory. http://www.cynlibsoc.com/mp3/am/AM-0052.mp3Podcast: Play in new window | Download Anarchy Moment 0263 – A Four-fecta Of Smackdown.

Anarchy Moment #0052 – How Do You Want To Live Your Days?

Posted on March 10, 2014 by TGOMarch 10, 2014

There was not podcast on Friday as I’ve been busy as hell with theatre work, and distracted by hippy girls and the weather has turned warm. As we slide back into summer it’s going to become ever more difficult for me to stay inside working on the computer when I could instead be outside biking and running and reading books printed on dead trees. Why I fail to get my ideas out into the world is because I have little interest in spending large amounts of time on social media pimping myself. To the extent of my knowledge no one … Continue reading →

Anarchy Moment #0050 – Book Review for “Parasite” – Sci-Fi/Horror Novel

Posted on February 28, 2014 by TGOFebruary 28, 2014

I read a book that’s not about philosophy or politics. And it was really fucking nice. Parasite isn’t going to win any awards. The ending was predicable. There was too much “oh I love my boyfriend and my do so much” filler material. The science is questionable. But the premise is interesting and it’s a fun & light read. I’m pretty sure there will be a sequel. http://www.cynlibsoc.com/mp3/am/AM-0050.mp3Podcast: Play in new window | Download Anarchy Moment 0263 – A Four-fecta Of Smackdown.
