There seems to be more depression and anxiety in our society than we can ever recall. But maybe it&#8217;s also that people are being more honest and letting others know their issues. Let&#8217;s hope so. Coincidentally, it&#8217;s <strong>National Suicide Prevention Week<\/strong>. If you&#8217;re struggling (or know someone who&#8217;s struggling) with depression\/anxiety and want to get help or you want to find out how you can help\/donate to the effort to prevent suicide, please go to the <strong>American Foundation for Suicide Prevention<\/strong> website\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/afsp.org\/\"><strong>HERE<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Related to this, great Canadian band <a href=\"http:\/\/brokensocialscene.ca\/\"><strong>Broken Social Scene<\/strong><\/a> has today released a new music video for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thelefortreport.com\/blog\/2017-05\/song-of-the-week-listen-to-broken-social-scenes-incantatory-anthem-skyline\/\">our former <strong>Song of the Week<\/strong><\/a>, <em><strong>Skyline<\/strong><\/em>,<em><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/em>off of their outstanding recent album <em><strong>Hug of Thunder<\/strong><\/em>. The video was directed by leader <strong>Kevin Drew\u00a0<\/strong>in which\u00a0co-founding band member\u00a0<strong>Brendan Canning<\/strong> and photographer\u00a0<strong>Dimitri Karakostas<\/strong>\u00a0seek the means for &#8220;momentary survival\u201d in this day and age. It turns out you may only need peanut butter, a close friend and a good group of friends, a mouthguard, a skateboard, and to hangout with the band <strong>Foreigner<\/strong> (please, can we not and instead hang with the far more talented<strong> BSS<\/strong>?). Regardless, the video is heartwarming and presents a great message.
