Robyn \’Dancing On My Own\’ (Official Video)

So I am completely loving the new Robyn song and video.  I’ve been dancing and listening to it almost non-stop since it was released.  I’m not sure why I’m so into it, but it’s doing a lot for me right now. For some reason I feel more like I’m 16 lately than 26.

Why I Started A Blog

May 24th

Posted by AlexBarnes in Personal

I started blogging because I need an outlet. I have been driving myself crazy for the last three years by refusing to write down my thoughts and share them with others. I have been terrified of letting other people see my thoughts because three years ago I was outed to my parents through a Facebook note while I was studying abroad in France.

In Defense of Atheist Blogging

I love Greta Christina. I’m glad one of my friends linked to this on Facebook.

IN DEFENSE OF ATHEIST BLOGGING

Today, I want to point something out I would have thought was obvious:

This is a blog.

And every single blog post in it is… well, a single blog post.

Here’s what I’m talking about. Among many theistic commenters, there seems to be an odd expectation that every single post I write about religion should address every single aspect of religion that exists, or has ever existed. When I write about X, it’s pointed out that I didn’t write about Y; when I write about Y, I’m scolded for not writing about Z. (Or about X, for that matter.)

Looking back at the last decade

I’m sitting here listening to my “Junior High” playlist on my computer that I made back in 2002 when I first entered college as a freshman. I have a new year’s party to go to in about two hours and for some reason I’ve been thinking about how different of a person I am today than I was back in 2000 at age 15. At 15 I was a Bible-thumping super annoying hypocritical brat who had convinced himself that he was in love with a young girl who had recently moved away. I thought I would grow up to be an engineer or a preacher. The politics bug had not bitten me yet. I spent that night at a small lake setting off firecrackers with my friends. If someone had told me at 15 I would believe what I now believe I would have told them that they were insane.
