The Keeganator

I'm Keegan, I post and repost; mostly about pop culture, nerd culture, art, kitties, food, travel, movies, nature, opinions, skepticism, humanism, quotes, science, sometimes whining or rants & anything else I find interesting (and i hope others do too).

I do this for fun and as a compulsion, but I paint on people for a living. If you'd like to see some of that check out facebook.com/bodyartbykeegan and www.bodyartbykeegan.com

Fell in love with this while searching on Etsy for gifts. Carl Sagan and Neil deGrasse Tyson. Merry Christmas to me. Dec 2012.

Don’t you need one of these?

YES, YES I DO!!!

Real life and science is so much cooler, stranger, and scarier than fiction!

I love how he continues to inspire and probably will for years, decades… centuries?

It’s been almost a year and a half since I visited the Jenny McCarthy Body Count. In that time, it looks like over 250 unnecessary vaccine-preventable deaths and over 20,000 illnesses have occurred because of Jenny and her ilk spreading brain-meltingly frustrating misinformation about the safety of vaccines. 

Sure, she’s not the only guilty one, but she’s the leader of a dangerous movement that’s still quite active today

This from a woman whose website has the following headline up today: 21 Benefits of Enzymes and Why You Need Them … oh I dunno, maybe to complete basic biological functions and literally BE ALIVE?!?!

A society that cares about science more will be a society that cares less about Jenny McCarthy. Keep up the good fight, and keep sharing science with your friends. Someone’s life may depend on it.

Listen to Neil on NPR talk about why space exploration is important.   

I love this man!! If anybody can get americans excited about science it’s him.

 Sometimes it can be genuinely funny but I’m not a big fan of sarcasm. Especially when it’s used by some as a means of veiling their contempt or an insult and then brushed of as a “joke” when it actually upsets somebody.  

ANYWAY….. this article is great. click the link.  Here’s an excerpt:  

Sarcasm so saturates 21st-century America that according to one study of a database of telephone conversations, 23 percent of the time that the phrase “yeah, right” was used, it was uttered sarcastically. Entire phrases have almost lost their literal meanings because they are so frequently said with a sneer. “Big deal,” for example. When’s the last time someone said that to you and meant it sincerely? “My heart bleeds for you” almost always equals “Tell it to someone who cares,” and “Aren’t you special” means you aren’t.

I <3 Bill Nye so much.

Hate Fox news about as much as I love Bill.  You can just see how idiotic he finds them, yet he’s so polite about getting his point across.
