I had the pleasure of volunteering for President Bush sr. in 2000. We worked on an initiative for childhood leukemia funding. Eight years later my husband and two sons were killed in an accident. I had not had any dealings with President Bush for almost 7 years. A few months after the accident I received a phone call.…

Not gonna disrespect the man immediately after he dies. Wouldn’t be prudent.

When I was a kid, I always kind of hated my name. But then when I was 10 years old, all of sudden, I had the coolest name in school. In the blink of, being named “Bart” was the coolest thing possible.

Hey Pennies: Do you have a PhD in Psychology? If so, thanks for the info on mis and over diagnosing anxiety. If not, you and the non-doctors on the South Park writing staff can STFU.

Heh. Guess that is kinda funny. 

Gross is unfair; I’d challenge you to look as well as Heidi after 17 years married to him!

Oh yeah, it’s really funny isn’t it? Well you know what’s not so funny? Ted Cruz is at home right now, crying like a little girl!

But suicide contagion is real and widely studied, and yes, a TV show romanticizing suicide can absolutely inspire kids to act on their ideation. (As many psychologists warned Netflix before and during the making of the show,…

I remember seeing a teenage suicide counselor on a TV special about the topic once. She said that she and her organization were very reluctant to be on the show, and even to support the dialog, because research showed that even just talking about suicides with teens tends to lead to spikes in instances. (Mind you this…

I’m glad you pointed out that the results of the study were preliminary and those conducting the study do not have any intention of coming to a full conclusion of causality from their study results. However, I do think that it would be a mistake to quickly judge all studies that attempt to research the connection…

Actual medical professionals disagree with you.

the exact same results generated by every other study in the history of the universe that attempts to find a connection between graphic or extreme art and its effect on young people. Heavy metal in the ’80s, Marilyn Manson and rap music in the ’90s,

All right Kate, you beer siren you. Done. Got it this morning, my buddy owns a beer distributor, they were delivered today.
