I’m disgusted with myself for giving a click to this ridiculous bullshit.

Your initial comment had "f'ing" in it, and you're trying to take some sort of high road, objecting to my use of the unabbreviated form of the same word? Gtfo.

So cool. I've been around the world quite a bit, and my too brief time in Kenya was among the really treasured experiences of my life. Hope you have a great safari in September!

It's a zoo park, and this entire story is predicated on the great danger the photographer was in. As to the photograph, it's a photo of an animal in a zoo park, like one you could visit near wherever you happen to live, probably with lions in it; they're everywhere. As to the danger, I say the photographer's story is…

An animal in captivity is in captivity, whatever its opinion may be.

Thanks for your entire lack of content; that was masterfully empty.

If you're going to take "wildlife photos" of captive animals in a safari zoo park, you might as well go ahead an Photoshop the shit out of them.

A safari park with lions in it in Pakistan is precisely a theme park, and precisely not nature.

Yes, he's obviously joking. Dammit, I really have to remember that "Tom Ley" is a synonym for "Don't Click". Unless there's a cute animal involved.

Love it when the internet tells me what I'm making for dinner before I even thought to ask. Hope the spousal unit likes it.

Does Deadspin get ANY clicks these days except from those curious to see just how stupid the posts are? This site is like picking at a spot on your face, a bad habit you hardly know you're doing.

Cowherd probably had in mind that article that some Gawker site posted a while back about Oregon's racist history; that made the rounds among Oregon folk (I'm one), Cowherd was hired to ESPN out of Portland and still does endorsements for Portland car dealers or whatever. I can't imagine he missed that article or that…

No caraway seeds sprinkled over? Seems odd.

Yes, as we all know...don't we?...all digital cameras work the same way.

Yep, the thing about anxiety and depression is that there are things that are depressing and fearful, and you have to learn to navigate to where you don't spiral out. Age makes it more difficult, but you also gain experience and knowledge, so you just keep navigating with the skills you learn and the strength you…

One thing that isn't being stressed, but doctors seem to take this as foundational—you need to know if you're depressive or bipolar. There's a big difference, I gather, between the two, especially when it comes to meds. I don't know if there are people who would borrow meds from people around them without consulting a…

A fear I had about opening up, and still have, is teaching others, eg the love of my life, the morbid thoughts (about, you know, death and decay) that are so much a part of my battle. My worst fearful thoughts, I keep to myself, I fear they might be contagious.

Huh. Well I guess we're just going to be two people wondering what the fuck each other are talking about.

Depression often comes with anxiety—you can get phobias and some real weirdness.

To me, and I reckon mileage varies wildly, meditation/mindfulness or, if it matches your proclivities, spiritual seeking, is more of a preventive than a cure—that is to say, it's definitely a valuable tool. But when you're in the throes of actual crashing and burning, you need more immediate remedies. Once you get to…
