I need to find time to write a discursive diagnostic piece on the nonsense that is psychology, especially psychoanalysis.

Reading Frantz Fanon's Black Skin, White Masks – excellent, by the way – I suggest skipping Chapter 4. It's not bad in itself, but…. I'll keep reading.

’tain, il y a une RH random qui a décidé de programmer une intervention sur la « #synergologie » à mes étudiants. Je suis en train de souffler dans des bronches. Cette #pseudoscience, il ne faut pas la laisser se répandre.

Ces vignerons persuadés du pouvoir bénéfique de la musique : « Juste après la mise en bouteille, on diffuse en boucle la “Symphonie pastorale” de Beethoven »

Dans les vignes, pendant la fermentation ou encore l’élevage, certains vignerons utilisent différentes mélodies qui, selon eux, stimuleraient les ceps, les protégeant des maladies, ou intensifieraient les arômes du vin.

@nen Pääpointti lienee, että "tieteellisesti tutkituksi" väitetyn jenkkiperäisen elämäntapalääkinnän kuuluukin poistaa varmistin vähänkin koulutetun ja ajattelemaan kykenevän kansalaisen hylkypyssystä, JOS erehdytään käyttämään "lääkeTIEDE" -termiä. Kyse ei ole siitä, mikä on terveellistä tai väitetään sellaiseksi, vaan tieteen, tutkittuuden ja tieteellisyyden käsitteiden propagandistisesta lainaamisesta episteemisesti tai laillisesti arveluttaviin tarkoituksiin.

Next time someone asks for my Meyer-Briggs type I should just respond with "Taurus". If they act confused I might even say: oh sorry, I meant Dom.

Almost two years ago we started our venture to promote skeptical thinking and to combat all manner of mumbo jumbo, #pseudoscience and #esotericism across #Germany and #Austria. Skeptical thinking, however, knows no bounds and is international!

That’s why some of us will be travelling to #Liverpool in October – straight after hosting the #Skeptival – to be part of the European Skeptics Congress.
