Exercise doesn't help depression, study concludes:

A study into whether physical activity alleviates the symptoms of depression has found there is no benefit.

Research published in the British Medical Journal suggests that adding a physical activity intervention to usual care did not reduce symptoms of depression more than usual care alone.

This contrasts with current clinical guidance which recommends exercise to help those suffering from the mental illness, which affects one in six adults in Britain at any one time.

I thought this was true and all - fuck yeah, randomised controlled trials!

i’m waiting for the study that proves that yoga at sunrise actually makes depression worse

What.

i don’t know how to feel

Dear Sir,

Individualist depressed running lonely into horizon truly experiences emaciated life-quality surrounded by pseudo-abundance of advanced capitalist nation. Eradicated disease is cured on state glorification through uplifting sport activity games in honor of transformation society toward socialist goal. Guardian abdicates by false reportage offer to relegate physical activity to individual choice focus on decadent upper class postmodern orientalist calisthenic practice. Nationalized make the great advancement to socially valued growth facilitate by vast plentiful support to the art, science, sport, literature of masses.

Please advise with best.

Anger at Syria 'heart-eating video'

Anger at Syria 'heart-eating video':

A video which appears to show a Syrian rebel taking a bite from the heart of a dead soldier has been widely condemned.

US-based Human Rights Watch identified the rebel as Abu Sakkar, a well-known insurgent from the city of Homs, and said his actions were a war crime.

The main Syrian opposition coalition said he would be put on trial.

The video, which cannot be independently authenticated, seems to show him cutting out the heart.

“I swear to God we will eat your hearts and your livers, you soldiers of Bashar the dog,” the man says, referring to President Bashar al-Assad as he stands over the soldier’s corpse.

okay so very clearly i’ve been wrong about this the whole time and the “rebels” that the US is currently assisting and seeking to explicitly, openly arm in their bid to overthrow the existing syrian government are completely fucking awesome

which is more gratifying, finding out that someone whose politics you find loathsome is equally repellent as a human being, or discovering that someone you’ve long found personally insufferable is also a political enemy

fuckyeahmarxismleninism:

May 1, 2013 - Stopping in again briefly with a coda to yesterday’s post regarding the PEN World Voices Conference. A while back I read this illuminating piece on Vaclav Havel by the leftist writer Michael Parenti. Havel of course was the playwright and leading front person for U.S. imperialism in working to bring about the counter-revolution in Czechoslovakia. After that effort succeeded, Havel served as president of the new Czech Republic. Now dead, he’s pretty well achieved sainthood standing as he does for freedom, democracy and art all tied up together in a pretty bow.

The truth, as Parenti points out, is that Havel was the scion of a wealthy family and a fighter above all for his own class interests. He hated the workers’ state, hated the struggle to build socialism in Czechoslovakia—because it expropriated his family’s wealth, wealth that was created by and had been stolen from workers. He fought hard to overturn that system so he and his lot could get their riches back.

In 1992, writes Parenti, “while president of Czechoslovakia, Havel, the great democrat, demanded that parliament be suspended and he be allowed to rule by edict, the better to ram through free-market ‘reforms.’

“That same year, he signed a law that made the advocacy of communism a felony with a penalty of up to eight years imprisonment.” How’s that for free speech?

So anyway, Philip Roth’s great revelation at last night’s PEN gala was that he spent a lot of time in the 1970s boosting Havel. He brought him money! He arranged contracts to have his books published in the United States! He soothed and supported Havel and his cronies who, Roth claims, were forced to actually work for a living. Work! Manual labor! What horrors! What nerve the socialist state had, refusing to pay these fine artistes a salary for fomenting counterrevolution! What antidemocratic anti-art baddies! All of this, Roth’s service to U.S. imperialism, he portrayed in his talk, as far as I can tell from reports, as his own personal endeavors, but it’s an absolute certainty that Roth carried out his mission in cahoots with the State Department. That’s how this stuff works.

“Conspiracy theorists of the world, believers in the hidden hands of the Rothschilds and the Masons and the Illuminati, we skeptics owe you an apology. You were right. The players may be a little different, but your basic premise is correct: The world is a rigged game.”

pax dude you have no idea how close i came (like, within the kid demanding my immediate attention and me subsequently forgetting about it, which happens approximately six thousand times in any given day, entire fucking proust novels could be constructed from thoughts the kid has interrupted and made me forget forever) to posting this very series of images just a few days ago, which means that you and i, individually and for our own separate reasons (mine, again, now forgotten) both ended up looking at the high-five wiki some time in the last week, which, like, i dunno, this feels like some fucking close encounters shit and i am kind of seriously a little bit freaked out right now
