This is something that happens every year in far too many places: A Labor Day parade is dedicated to Vets.

If you're in New York City these days, keep your head on a swivel and get ready to duck at a moment's notice. Thirty nine (yes, 39) people have been shot in the past TWO DAYS.

It seems the fears over hurricane Irene taking life by hitting NYC were misplaced; it guns that have been taking more lives.

White Male Privilege? What White Male Privilege?

Girls have been outperforming boys in school consistently for decades, have less mental illness than boys, and, as women, live on average 10 years longer than men. Oh, and they also score much higher on self-esteem than boys.

Looking at this ongoing Depression, it is white males who have been disproportionately impacted by its suffering - particularly lower income white males.

Sue Shellenbargar has a piece in yesterdays WSJ on the pathetic portion of Americans that DON'T TAKE THEIR LUNCH. First of all, the data is suspect, because all I see are morbidly obese men, women, and children plopped around. But she may be on to something - most "meetings" I've had lately in the 1:00 or 2:00 hours consisted of me watching some bloated, over perfumed, over accessorized corporate drone (and yes, even if you're with Apple or Facebook, your a corpro drone, but please keep trying to make yourself feel better)

These -slaves- workers "prefer" to go out, get something, then bring it back to their little hell hole cube to "not miss a beat" being degraded and exploited by sociopathic bosses. Some - veal like penesque - don't even go out!

My favorite member of Daily Kos, Meteor Blades, has left the site. I feel like I did when Lennon got shot, I feel numb and empty. I've been in tears since reading the news, but we must carry on.

As Markos said, the assholes on the site couldn't have helped his mental state.

Now is not the time to squander this fantastic momentum Obama's built over the past three years. Now is not the time to grow complacent with this Administration's historic achievements. Barack Obama is counting on us all to raise our game, to take it to another level, to get FIRED UP AND READY TO GO!

Chalk up another first for President Obama. It's looking more and more like he's done what no Republican could do all these years: put Social Security and Medicare on the cutting table. Yes We Can!

Yesterday's scare with Govoner Calorie Chris Christie of NJ finding himself "short of breath" to the point he had to have himself taken to a nearby hospital and tested for an entire day.

When describing his "asthma" scare later to reporters, Christie aped a line I've heard countless men use when talking about their bodies and their their health: "I've got kids and I to be there for" (in Christie's case four). As if men needed a reason to live, and that reason can't be their own precious bodies and wonderful minds.

I gotta be honest; I don't give a flying shit about the debt ceiling: what level it's at, and whether or not it's getting raised. If there's anything we learned from the bank crash/bailout, it's that the United States is a Ponzi scheme and money is a fiction.

How do we get it through to some of you? No Democrat is ever going to touch Social Security, and Obama is the bluest Democrat there is. So stop all this tin foil talk about Obama cutting this, and Obama cutting that. The only thing Obama will be cutting is the funding for these wars he opposes and the tax breaks for millionaires.

Our Social Securety and our Medicare is safe with Obama. You can take that to the bank.

OK everyone, take a deep breath. We can all stop freaking out about the "Gang of Six" and the debt limit. We can all just BREATHE. Social Security isn't being touched. Medicare isn't being touched. Medicaid isn't being touched.

Obama's GOT this.

There's an excellent diary up from LibbyLuLu on a feminist perspective on why men should use condoms:

http://www.dailykos.com/...

Thank you! These wise words need to appear everywhere men can see them, for they so clearly spell out the situation in a reality-based way. And they also shed light on why so many young men today are just forgetting sex and women all together: women and sex just aren't worth it.
