Dead Wild Roses: Fouling Low Earth Orbit – Our Shortsighted Species Stumbles Onward
Early primate hunters nearly initiated their own extinction by using the advanced technology of the time to stress their environment and hunt at unsustainable levels. At one time, our future rested on less than 20,000 individuals world wide. Luckily we did not die off completely and came to flourish and expand across the globe. Despite […]
Dead Wild Roses: Waffle King Obama Shits on Environment – Big Business Cheers.
Hope and Change. Neither apply to the appallingly right-centre Obama administration. Unless of course you count change for the worse: “President Barack Obama is sacking a controversial proposed regulation tightening government smog standards, bowing to the demands of congressional Republicans and some business leaders.” Oh fantastic, because business has its knickers in a twist and […]
Dead Wild Roses: Anti-Choice Nuttery on the Web – The Forced Birth Brigade now with Jebus!
Somedays you go looking for trouble, other days you just step in it. On a whim I followed a link from a discussion over at The Drudgeretort back to one of the commenters own little putrid slice of the blogosphere. I was greeted by the feverish ramblings of the delusional in favour stripping women of […]
Dead Wild Roses: The DWR Sunday Disservice – We’re held together by Jesus!
Science and religion do not mix. Science deals with observable reality and provable fact while religion deals with myth, magic and superstition. Combining the two is a prescription for horrible science and laughable predictions. This video is shining example of both in which through the wonders of science we can finally see one of the […]

Romantic Music here we come! Few works for the concert hall have won such immediate and continuing popularity as Dvořák’s Symphony No. 9 ‘From the New World’.

Dead Wild Roses: Steven Lewis – Jack Layton’s Eulogy
Mr. Layton will be fondly remembered by progressive Canadians. I count myself in that group. Thank you for all of your hard work toward making Canada a nation to be proud of. Jack’s struggle is over. But his legacy and ideals live on. From the song below… “There’s a blaze of light in every word […]
Dead Wild Roses: Our Place in the Universe – Supernova Examined
Astronomy is fantastic when done correctly and edited to make it all bright and shiny. From Bad Astronomy: “First of all, a supernova is an exploding star — one of the most violent events in the Universe. There are different kinds of supernovae, but a Type Ia occurs, it’s thought, when a superdense […]
Dead Wild Roses: The Hierarchy of Digital Distractions
I did not know that their was a ordered hierarchy of things to distract me, this sort of thing makes me wary of social media and being ‘connected’.

Edward Current makes me laugh. I enjoy this videos and especially the comment sections where people routinely miss the satire and respond as if EC was playing what he says utterly straight. But enough! Beware god-mockers, its double down time in the torture for eternity sweepstakes. Filed under: Humour Tagged: Christianity, Edward Current, god-mocking, INanity, […]
Dead Wild Roses: What Atheists do in a Crisis? – Prepare (duh)
It is awesome to watch the faithful whirl in indignation when they are called on the bullshite they believe in. I’m not sure what Fox news was trying to do with this piece other than making their hosts look foolish. The US is plodding back to the Dark Ages with their delusional christian inanity at […]
Dead Wild Roses: The DWR Sunday Disservice – Praying for Rain!
Rick Perry is delusional. What is worse, he is propagating and magnifying his own personal stupid beliefs and inflicting them on the people of America. When faux news steps up and starts supporting your cause, that should be the first indicator that you have left the land of the rational and now are mired […]
Dead Wild Roses: LHC – Higgs Boson here we come!
The LHC is beginning to collect evidence for the elusive Higgs Boson. “Scientists are hoping that the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) will finally nail Higgs boson — the “God particle” which theoretically endowed every other particle with mass, but has proved elusive to date. The discovery of Higgs boson is one of the chief […]
Dead Wild Roses: Libertarianism – Explained!
Well, explained more than F-you, I’ve got mine. Gleaned from Pharyngula, a post from Jadehawk. I think that it’s possible to have libertarian values and still like things like governments and taxes and social programs. yup. That’s called being liberal, progressive, or even anarcho-syndicalist, depending on the exact ratio of “libertarian” values to government/taxes/social programs […]
Dead Wild Roses: Look! No there is no god in Natural Disasters – Thunderf00t
You would think by now we could progress past the idea that scary storms are tantrums of the gods and that tsunami are not any godheads’ perverted act of ‘retribution’ or similar horsepucky. One would think that, but just listen to the small snippits of christian talk radio Thunderf00t talks about and let the batshite […]
Dead Wild Roses: Thunderstorms and Anti-Matter – Ain’t Science Grand?
Pushing the limits of our knowledge is what science is all about. Consider what NASA is learning about thunderstorms and their possible role in creating anti-matter. Fascinating stuff! Filed under: Science Tagged: NASA, Science, Thunderstorms & Anti-matter
Dead Wild Roses: Killing Children in the Name of the christian GOD – The DWR Sunday Disservice
The idea that religion is harmless and that it is good for people, is patently false. The raging torrent of evil shit that religion is responsible for claims more victims every second we allow magical thinking to be acceptable and “OK” in our society. It is a double header today, two videos for the […]
