Best way to avoid distresing news?? Turn off the portal, buckle up with an awesome book, freshly off the press, about what it means to live with mental distress and how to best to respond to it to lead a flourishing life; and learn that these can all be proper objects of scientific inquiry!

I just learned that the art department for the 1984 version of DUNE paid tribute to David Lynch’s love of Bob’s Big Boy by presenting him with a handmade custom figurine of the BBB mascot wearing an Arrakis stillsuit.
