Simply put, my point was to say that adults reading as a hobby is a fine thing.

Oh, spare me. I’m commenting in a place with only adults and nowhere did I suggest giving kids a hard time.
Cardi B, drugger of people, violent attacker of women, vicious transphobe, and favorite of Jezebel. Maybe she can be President once she works out her legal issues.
Exactly. Is like give me super hero movies but without super heroes.
Counterpoint: the rest of the Star Wars universe without the Jedi just isn’t that interesting, has an extremely spotty track record in fiction with more lows than highs, doesn’t generate as much interest among fans, and could take place interchangeably in almost any space fantasy universe.
Incidentally, Witcher 3 is a game that I loathe. It’s impressive from a technical and presentation standpoint. Awe-inspiring, even. But I hate it so bad for being a mess of a game, with too many bread crumbs trails, loads of conflicting ideas, tropey shell characters and awkward systems.
I have a degree in nutrition and have worked out for 2o years. I have taken HGH which he 100% has. A fat 40 year old doesn't change their muscle/fat comp in 12 months like he does without help. Not about being lazy you dolt, taking HGH doesn't change the amount you have to work out it greatly reduces the required rest…
I’d guarantee that 9/10 kids that receive a game console for Christmas will never notice that it was already opened.
He has been canceled for me since he vocally supported Frank Rich’s daughter in law when she cyber stalked and doxxed an online commenter who didn’t like her terrible book.
Hot take: as a business owner, if you arent complaining about the skyrocketing rent, but are closing because you will have to pay your employees a fair wage finally, you arent a great business owner to begin with. If 40K more a year is causing you to close, how successful was your business to begin with. Thats a…
Yeah one that I learned in a class specifically devoted to learning how to strength train. When you’re that ripped you’re at least dehydrated if not way below the healthy fat content for your body.
“Harvard geneticist George Church thinks it’s “ludicrous” to compare his dating app — that uses genes to pair adults together — to eugenics. “It’s ludicrous to think that’s what I’m doing, but it makes good clickbait, doesn’t it?” Churchtold The Daily Beast.”
Why do you only believe in science when it’s convenient? You think genetic counseling is a scam?
Well, no. In the sense that his stated desire is to keep from matching people whose genomes when considered together are such that their potential future children are at unusual risk of birth defects. That’s a genetic counseling application—albeit at an unprecedentedly early stage of the total courtship process.
I didn't read it that way. There are some absolutely horrible genetic diseases that leave people suffering and then dead at an early age. I don't think it's a bad thing to prevent those.
Not everyone is going to have the money for IVF (or adoption for that matter). I think the fact that most people wouldn’t dump someone they’re already serious about based on them being a fellow recessive carrier of a disease is why someone might find this sort of screening useful. If you already know you’re a…
Big difference between eugenics and genetic counseling. There’s a reason the former’s disparaged, but we’ve been handing out degrees in the latter since 1969.
As a Jew with a brother who was born with a horrible genetic disorder that has basically ruined his life, I’m not so sure it’s such a bad idea. Thanks to my parents my brother was born with USHERS syndrome and bi-polar disorder. He will eventually go completely blind and deaf. I got stuck with clinical depression and…
Can’t you just do genetic screenings to see if you and your partner are carriers of whatever diseases you have in your respective families? Why turn it to a dating app? I’m not going to date someone just because neither of us has the genes for Huntington’s disease. And if it did turn out both me and my partner are…
