“In early January a friend mentioned that his New Year’s resolution was to beat...”
– Begley, “The Depressing News About Antidepressants” (via newsweek)
And again, please read The Truth About Drug Companies
Drug companies understand that most drugs help 1/3 of people, don’t do anything for 1/3 of people, and harm 1/3 of people. But the cost and time required to get FDA approval...

Switch a few wires around, it’s the perfect diagram for the guitar I’m not making yet. It usually is wired neck/s.neck/both/s.both/bridge, but my bridge only has one coil. The 3 and 5 positions are pretty much gonna be for solos (for when I inevitably return to rock); 3 might actually sound good...
AWESOME.
Guilty Verdict in Abortion Doctor’s Murder -... →
(via mchotdog)
“[S]ome complained bitterly that Judge Wilbert had severely limited the defense by … preventing jurors from considering some conviction short of murder.”
Could that be because he shot him, point blank, in the forehead? Or because he essentially stalked him to find out the easiest way to kill him? Or because, far from being remorseful he’s actually proud of...
telecaster
I can’t decide how I want to wire the Telecaster that my dream told me I need to make. I might put a slide pot in the switch spot, ‘cause I’m way more about the volume/tone/blend and volume/volume/tone than volume/tone/switch.
Pickups are easy, Cool Rails neck (like on my Strat) and a vintage style bridge, maybe a stack, but something that will be easily overpowered by the SCR....

The Americanization of Mental Illness →
“For more than a generation now, we in the West have aggressively spread our modern knowledge of mental illness around the world. We have done this in the name of science, believing that our approaches reveal the biological basis of psychic suffering and dispel prescientific myths and harmful stigma. There is now good evidence to suggest that in the process of teaching the rest of the world...

News is absurd.
Fox news did something ridiculous… the correct course of action would be to discredit them by NOT RESPONDING TO THEIR BLATANT TROLLING, but everyone knows that “news” is driven by sensationalism these days so this bullshit will keep getting reported—by every other news outlet. Honestly, they attacked Buddhism. That’s like telling Fat Albert that maybe he should lose...
New Year's Resolutions
Repair metaphorical bridges; build others.
Wear more green.
Organize.
End my addiction to introspection.
Pay more attention to the people around me. (See: #4)
