some of my friends who like some page called "i fucking love science" post shit like that all the time. when did science ppl become as churchy as other religious types?
― clouds, Tuesday, 18 September 2012 12:58 (eleven years ago) link
probably when certain religious types became so fucking anti-science perhaps?

don't get me wrong, it serves a place, especially when some people are best convinced by that form of expression
maybe it's just as bad... for me. well, but it's not, because half the time I agree with the science crowd. But they (especially the reddit-atheist types) end up conflating religious types who eschew science and those who are completely reasonable scientifically. or other crap.

NdGT is pretty awesome even for a scientist.
― purveyor of generations (in orbit), Tuesday, 18 September 2012 15:28 (eleven years ago) link
yeah I mean what he does, astrophysicist and all, def makes him kind of a nerd magnet/hero/icon but that's just kind of a byproduct he's for everyone, not just nerds
― set the controls for the heart of the sun (VegemiteGrrl), Tuesday, 18 September 2012 15:33 (eleven years ago) link
He's really relate-able and funny and un-selfconscious, a great speaker, and the host of the NOVA podcast, which is pretty damn good.
― purveyor of generations (in orbit), Tuesday, 18 September 2012 15:50 (eleven years ago) link
not to pile on but he's always been a great daily show guest, this is a pretty nice little interview

Yeah, I actually really like NdGT. He's really likable and relatable and, most importantly, really seems engaging and not at all condescending with his smarts.

it's not like a kevin smith thing where his appeal is mystifying to people who don't like what he does. dude could read the phone book and you'd want 12 of them.

He's really great, that doesn't mean you have to put images of him with quotes from him on them on your facebook page.

or the reddit weirdos, one of them had a picture of himself with the guy, and they were holding a previous picture he'd taken of the two of them

i used to follow him on twitter but some of the stuff he said was straight up reddit level atheism crusader poopy, which is just so you do not understand these things as good as you think you do, so i unfollowed him

All I know is that I am fucking tired of those autotune songs of Carl Sagan and Tyson and Mr. Rogers and shit and so when I see NDGT I assume he is about to robot sing to me about wonder and I cringe.
