Why Are Army Recruiters Killing Themselves? - TIME:
"Last year alone, the number of recruiters who killed themselves was triple the overall Army rate. Like posttraumatic stress disorder and traumatic brain injury, recruiter suicides are a hidden cost of the nation's wars."
(Via Time Magazine.)
This is just wrong.
What The Geese Are All Roaring About - Ta-Nehisi Coates:
"It's true hip-hop has a problem respecting women, but this is a symptom of deeper truth--the music doesn't respect men. It doesn't respect that essentially male moment, when standing at the bus stop, when sitting in English class, when in that sales meeting, a dime-piece floats past, and cognition stops. It doesn't respect the exhilarating terror of being attracted to a woman. To cop to that violates the pimp ethos. One can't be out of control, and be the player president."
(Via Ta-Nehisi Coates.)
This is real.
