Robin Williams and the Demon Depression



He was such a funny man, he made so many people laugh. 

Which only made his sad death even more shocking. 

Robin Williams, the versatile actor whose madcap comic style made him one of television and film's biggest stars, was found dead on Monday from an apparent suicide at his home in Northern California. He was 63.

But as the Star's Peter Howell points out, he was a clown with a dark side.

The Con Regime and the Never-Ending War on Veterans



I've written quite a few posts about the disgraceful way the Con regime treats our veterans.

And about the disgusting way their depraved leader claims to be standing up for our men and women in uniform.

While betraying our wounded soldiers so miserably.

Now read the tragic story of Colin Fitzgerald, war hero and PTSD survivor.

The Slow Death of Ashley Smith


It is without a doubt one of the worst things I have ever seen. The slow death of Ashley Smith.

While her guards watched.

Read that and weep.

Or watch the video here.

If you can bear it.

Beating the Doggie Called Depression



I went for a walk the other day through the leafy lanes of The Shire, with a friend of mine who has suffered from severe depression from about this time last year.

It was such a beautiful fall day. He was so happy, at having made so much progress on the road to recovery.

And I was just so grateful that he's still here, and that I'm still standing.
