here's a depressing thought for today:

Last night, while you were excitedly ringing in the new year with friends, family, and perhaps your lover(s), many the world over were suffering in their own way - perhaps going hungry another night in the cold, being tortured by psychopathic and ruthless militias, raped or mutilated, etc etc.

I think about it quite often, actually

dare I say it?

This forum is dying.

I love the finicky uproar over this whole pink slime thing. I'm not saying fast food is nutritious, but have these people ever seen meat in its natural state? No, not the nice little packages you get at your grocery store where they have dyed it to make it appear homogeneous and somehow appetizing (??) but primal cuts- you know, the sporadic marbling of fatty tissue amid red and gray musculature? Hey, if we grind it up and add chemicals to keep it from accruing bacteria (because it's MEAT), it's really rather a pink slurry of protein. Fuckin' funny, that.

Oh yeh, adding anti bacterials to hundreds of thousands of kids lunches every day is such a great idea.

We can't all eat soap like you do.

All it's going to do is cause bacteria to become resistant to those anti bacterials very quickly; thus rendering them useless and requiring another batch of anti bacterials to have to be developed (and someone's gotta pay for the R&D... or maybe that's the point).

I know, lets use every anti bacterial ever developed on the school kid's lunches... that'll keep them healthy!

Oh, really? How quickly?

More quickly than infirm logic.

I'm sure you can find plenty of studies that argue both for and against the common use of anti bacterials. I shall find some decent sources later.

today's sobering thought:

If you think taking anti-depressants will help you feel better about your shitty life, you might as well take some sugar pills and save some money.*

*not sure if this is exactly a sobering thought as such, but whatevs.

Anti depressants make almost anyone's life worse. I'd rather burn my money and eat sugar pills.

I've talked to shitloads of adolescents with chronic depression (50+)... and about 6-7 I knew extremely well (much better than anyone who wasn't a close friend with two way communication and complete trust) before during and after anti depressants. They're just fucked... really really fucked. The doctors don't tell you how they destroy your social skills either. It's basically a total scam.

whooooaaa! whats goin on, friend?!? long time no see!

I have a friend who is on anti-depressants. She's also a serious alcoholic. I've been putting a lot of effort lately into making sure she just stays alive. Her family doesn't seem to want to help her at all. She's headed to rehab, and when I asked her about the possibility of her talking to a psychiatrist there to change her meds (which clearly aren't working for her) she said they barely have anyone who can devote any time to her due to inadequate funding. The place is more of an alternative for people who go to court and are told by the judge they can either go to jail, or go there. I guess I'm just rambling off about it since we're talking about anti-depressants here, but I'm trying to think of anything I can to help this girl. If anyone has any experience or educated insight on this please pm me. It would be much appreciated.
