    “Bob, can you hear me? It’s gotten even weirder since you split”

    A fine epitaph for a finished epoch.

    Did anyone else in the US catch the newer pharma TV adverts for the magnificently named “Abilify”? Not sure if I got it right, but I think it’s every anti-depressant on the market – all in one pill?

    Hail Eris, and pass the pills.

    HA The ad is 1:15 and after the first 30 seconds it spends the rest of the time giving disclaimers about how the drug can potentially injure or kill the person taking it.
