Reality is always more complicated than you think.

He received a BS and a MS in Biological Sciences from Stanford University -- where he spent most of his time drinking heavily and building vegetable catapults instead of learning information that would now be eminently useful. When he is not failing terrifically to perform his sworn duties, he enjoys watching bad movies, ethnic food, and running.

Pure Pedantry is a blog about science -- social sciences and otherwise -- as well as academic and scientific culture. No one can live on science alone, so I also like to dwell on pop culture, periodically explore the humanities, and indulge in other types of geeky goodness.

Jake is joined periodically by two wonderful guest bloggers: Kara Contreary and Kate Seip. See the About Page.

Britney Spears is the high priestess of trailer trash

Every time I think that Britney Spears cannot become more trailer trash, she goes and becomes the black hole into which all other trailer trash in the Universe is sucked:

That would be Britney Spears in the latest issue of Bazaar being her very pregnant self.

1) That was disturbing when Demi Moore did it. It didn't end up being, as intended, a big feminist thing. It just ended up being wrong.

2) As the Hat-tip link points out, that is not even in the ball park of how Britney Spears looks. She is at the hind end of two kids and an imploding mairrage. I am amazed that Photoshop science has advanced to the point that she can look this palatable to the senses.

Hat-tip: IDLYITW.
