"I was prepared [to debate the virtues of a monarchy or republic for the impoverish Thomas Paine Society] for free. [Ms. Penny] insisted on trying to charge such a large free that the event had to be cancelled.

THAT IS AS MEAN...THAT IS AS MEAN...THAT IS AS MEAN AND AS GRASPING AS SOME RUNT COMEDIAN, AND I WILL NOT BE LECTURED TO BY A JUMPED-UP PUBLIC SCHOOL GIRL LIKE YOU."

Starkey is an uppity bastard, but I'll be damned if he didn't blow her the fuck out.

She has 100,000 twitter followers, four times as many as Tao Lin.

Richard Dawkins has one million.

Things I learned about Laurie Penny from this post:

-She is far too busy with important work to blog, so she needs to tell us in a tweet.
-She does not need to explain herself because she has already done so perfectly.
-The only people she respects are those who accept her explanation without question.
-If you don't already accept her explanation, you don't deserve further clarification.

"I have told you how I am right and if you can't accept that then you are trying to antagonize me."

This is a ridiculous time to be alive.

what was the Dawkins tweet she was responding to? I'm guessing it's something about feminism?

kind of glad to see Dawkins is old school enough not to put up with third wave feminism bullshit. It's hilarious to see the Atheism+ community get their panties in a knot every time he opens his mouth
