I don’t get why it’s that interesting from a scientific standpoint. Here’s an example of an interesting question: How would homosexuality involve as an innate trait? That’s interesting because the process of evolution should control for traits that are more likely to be passed on, and homosexuality does not…

I would not be happy if I got a direct email from my employer telling me to start a fitness regimen, or anything else related to my health. Health information gets special treatment under privacy laws for a reason.

Can someone who knows who Ryan Weaver is get her a dictionary so she can look up bullying?

Cool, thanks. Good talk.

???? Would be interested in learning how a person is supposed to make purchase like cars and homes without incurring significant debt (not to mention student loans).

I agree with a lot of your points. I didn’t interpret OPs statement as anything other than “I’ll say flat out I think David Bowie is a rapist, and I won’t tiptoe around it or make excuses just because I like his music.”

So? That means if he liquidated all of his assets, he’d be able to pay all that debt and still have 2/3's left over. I bet my household debt is a MUCH higher percentage of my net worth than that, thanks to a recent home purchase and a my wife’s student loans.

Right, just throwing out the number without considering that West is one of the most successful recording artists in a generation is definitely taking into account context.

I don’t think anyone is laboring under the delusion that something can be done about it other than state whether they think Bowie is or is not a rapist. He’s dead, and the time for any prosecution of any crime he might have committed is long since past. But this incident certainly potentially opens a dialog on a…

Not sure I get the point behind this comment.

They are not reporting the bare minimum. The bare minimum would be not reporting on it at all, or maybe an initial report and no follow up. If Jezebel has some sort of agenda, this article we are commenting on would not exist.

Haha. Fine. It’s obvious you have no substantive response. You just want to whine about me being “insulting” in the same comment where you insult me. Whatever. I can recognize someone who is avoiding providing a substantive response because they don’t have one. You know you are dishonest, and you have nothing…

No, it hasn’t. When the number of crimes reported topped 500, Jezebel reported that. When the prosecutor said most of the attackers were refugees (which is directly contrary to the narrative you think Jezebel has) they reported that.

Why? Because I said F-? Grow up, you have been just as condescending.

Oh, it does fit the case here? How, exactly? Because we are posting on an article that discusses the latest update on the Cologne attacks. That’s a pretty bizarre way of “silencing” anything.

How, exactly? Here’s a hint, it doesn’t, but go ahead and try anyway.

Christ. Back to posting non-substantive bullshit, I see. How exactly does that support your argument? How is Jezebel causing anything to “become silent” when we are literally commenting on an article on the Cologne attacks.

Silence literally means not speaking. You also literally said they didn’t cover it. It does not require “interpretation” to understand those things. I am sorry you don’t understand what words mean. That must make this discussion especially difficult for you. But you said what you said.

I mean, you can change the meaning of words all you want. I think when you say there is “silence” on this subject, it is pretty obvious that you mean they haven’t spoken, since that is what silence is generally understood to mean. If you don’t want to be accused of moving your goalposts, you should choose your words…

They have reported when new developments come up. The reason they are reporting this today, nearly two months later, is because the prosecutor made these announcements today. They couldn’t have possibly reported it before today.
