Aww 20 Dollars, but I wanted a peanut.
“I am the friend of somebody who experienced depression. I know it isn’t a choice. It’s not a weakness, self-inflicted, or a result of not trying. Sometimes you just can’t get over it - it won’t just go away. Pretending it isn’t happening doesn’t help; talking about it does. Getting support early can make the difference. Helping someone we care about is not a burden. I pledge to learn the signs. I will not judge. I will have compassion. I will reach out, listen, talk, help, and find help. My name is Kevin Bieksa, I will not stay silent.”

I urge everyone - whether you are a hockey fan or not - to reblog this message. As someone who is dealing with depression, having the proper support makes all the difference. Please educate yourselves; it could save someone’s life.
New upload as of 27th January 2012 - Raw, issue #163 (November/December 1994). The article has been on the site since the beginning and I’m sure a lot of you have seen smaller scans of the photo used as a preview, but this is the first time there are scans of the entire thing. Please note that it’s only a part of the issue’s large Red Hot Chili Peppers pull-out, which you can read on the website of the friend who hooked up Invisible Movement with this.
Text excerpt:
“Did you ever try to disappear, actually to be in another universe, when you shut your eyes? I used to do things onstage to trick myself. Like tell myself I’m gonna start this solo on this fret note, then when it gets to the last second I’m not allowed to get to that fret, and I have to start somewhere else. Or I’ll tell the audience that this song is dedicated to the baby born right now. But when it gets to the solo, the audience thinks they’re thinking about the same baby as me but we’re really thinking of two different babies. That kinda thing.”See all the scans here (four pages):

“Before every home game, I kinda look at that sticker on the helmet and say a little prayer to him and I miss him alot.” -Kevin Bieksa on Rick Rypien
Billy was determined to have a 3way with two girls at the same time even if the only ones willing were inflatable. It was too late when he discovered one of them had a penis.
When I was listening to the Red Hot Chili Peppers’s new album, I had an orgasm.
