The evolutionary origin of depression: Mild and bitter (The Economist)
whoa, so according to this dude, I actually have a totally legitimate basis for talking about how the best thing I have ever done for my own mental health is stop giving a shit about classes/achievement/etc, and how the less I care, the better I feel. I sort of suspected I was maybe just being lazy or something, but I like this guy’s explanation way better.CLINICAL depression is a serious ailment, but almost everyone gets mildly depressed from time to time. Randolph Nesse, a psychologist and researcher in evolutionary medicine at the University of Michigan, likens the relationship between mild and clinical depression to the one between normal and chronic pain. He sees both pain and low mood as warning mechanisms and thinks that, just as understanding chronic pain means first understanding normal pain, so understanding clinical depression means understanding mild depression.
Dr Nesse’s hypothesis is that, as pain stops you doing damaging physical things, so low mood stops you doing damaging mental ones—in particular, pursuing unreachable goals. Pursuing such goals is a waste of energy and resources. Therefore, he argues, there is likely to be an evolved mechanism that identifies certain goals as unattainable and inhibits their pursuit—and he believes that low mood is at least part of that mechanism…
Storyboards from Michael Bay's The Great Gatsby
“Oh, actually, speaking of which, is there a screenplay we can take a look at, or do you just sort of only work in pictures and boom noises? And, this might be nitpicking, but ‘it was the best of times’ is from A Tale of Two Cities, not The Great Gatsby. Do you think that all books are the same book?”this is actually even funnier than it sounds. well-played, cracked.com. well-played.
can't stop laughing at this one
(650): you lied vaginas dont taste like gold fish!

awww cuteness. i’ve had that night. it’s a good night.iheartlove:carolyns:takestheday:(via racquelbrazer)
(303): i hate going to weddings because the old people always come up and poke you saying, “you’re next…” so i decided to start doing the same thing to them at funerals
so whenever i go away from tumblr longer than 24 hours i try to cut down on the reblogging cuz otherwise it will take me like a year to catch up but -I have been bingeing on House lately. this picture makes this entire cast look unbelievably hot.
but Kal Penn still wins, I think.
1) that would be because the entire cast IS really hot, though i agree that this is really bringing out the hotness potential of them all to the max (even if robert sean leonard looks sort of out of place in a t-shirt & jeans somehow, and even if whatsherface who plays cameron REALLY NEEDS TO GO BACK TO BRUNETTE LIKE YESTERDAY)
2) HUGH LAURIE ALWAYS WINS IN MY PANTS.
uh. heart. i meant heart. gosh what a weird typo.
“ I’ve been making a list of the things they don’t teach you at school. They don’t teach you how to love somebody. They don’t teach you how to be rich or how to be poor. They don’t teach you how to walk away from someone you don’t love any longer. They don’t teach you how to move on when the one you love walks away from you. They don’t teach you how to know what’s going on in someone else’s mind. They don’t teach you what to say to someone who’s dying. They don’t teach you anything truly worth knowing.
