Just knowing that this completely unironically stolen depiction of the atheist’s invisible pink unicorn exists has restored my hope for humanity! Welcome back, goddess worship!
In other news, I’ve been playing with spray-paint in non-ventilated areas.
To my knowledge, there are currently four Discordian radio projects. Only a few of them air regular schedules, but luckily we can listen to old shows using the magic of the Internet.
Radio Discordia regularly posts downloadable podcasts from various sources. It describes itself thusly: “…a radio station of unique, diverse and experimental digital audio. Mix-tapes, Mash-ups, Speeches, Audio Books, and anything else we choose to air of Cultural, Social, & Activist significance, and anything just plain interesting in nature. ”
What the Fnord? – hosted by Fenian Timelord, is a Discordian talk radio show. If you catch them doing a live show, call in, they’re really fun!
MadKid Radio is hosted by Principality Kaou-Suu. It’s a musical show with the occasional Discordian PSA, commercial or announcement.
You’ve tried democracy and kleptocracy
and plutocracy and monarchy,
Fascism and despotism
and aristocracy and anarchy.
But do you recall
the most famous political platform of all?
In honor of the upcoming Discordian holyday 5/23, 23ae is hosting an Eris Pageant. It’s very simple – just post photographs of people dressed up as Eris.
If you know the person, or there’s a story behind the picture, let us know!
How do I upload photos?
You’ll notice that the comment box now has a line under it which says “You can add images to your comment by clicking here.” It’s fairly self explanatory.
If you need to upload the pix to the Internet somehow, I recommend imageshack.us.
What do I win?
It’s not so much of a “contest” as it is a “dodge ball cannon”.
Emily Sander aka Zoey Zane, Discordian friend and proposed Discordian Saint.
Israel Mireles was convicted of the murder, rape and aggravated criminal sodomy of 18-year-old Emily Sander. For those who don’t know, the Kansas Sander’s case got national attention because she posed naked online as Zoey Zane. She was called a “porn star” and “pornography model,” but she wasn’t the first and in my opinion wasn’t the second (not that I’d mind if she was). More importantly to us, she was friends with Discordian Perlie the Pony Girl, and had a Discordian tattoo.
Mireles had fled to Mexico, and was found there. But because Mexico, like most of the civilized world, doesn’t allow executions, the United States had to promise not to kill him. Emily’s friend Perlie said, ”I’m glad they aren’t going to kill him. I don’t believe in that and Emily didn’t either. She was such a wonderful girl. I hope people remember her that way.”
Emily aka Zoey has been nominated as a Discordian Saint.
As for Mireles, he faces almost certain lifetime imprisonment, and will be sentenced 31 March 2010.
Perlie’s tribute to Emily is at http://discordia.loveshade.org/xtra/emily.html an and we’d love Discordians responses (Perlie the Pony Girl would especially) at our blog at http://loveshade.org/blog/2010/02/israel_mireles_found_guilty_of.html
