No, I don’t care to - your education isn’t my responsibility. Perhaps you could do your own research?

“Veganism just doesn’t make that much sense unless you also happen to be lactose intolerant? Like yeah, we should reduce our carbon footprint by not having so many cows, but we can’t just get rid of all of them (for multiple reasons).”

What I find interesting is that I am friends / acquaintances with a lot of vegans, none of whom I ever knew were vegans until it just somehow naturally came up in conversations (dinner plans, conversations about cooking, conversations about favorite / most disliked foods, best / new local restaurants, etc). I…

“a myriad” would be a proper usage as well.

Your response is completely nonsensical. No one forced you to read this story. You don’t like it because it’s not about someone and something else, run along.

Why would a completely unrelated issue involving a completely unrelated person be discussed - or even mentioned - in a story about Trump wanting his staffers to pose nude?

“So you’re saying I summed up your pages and pages of verbal diarrhea in three words?! Thank you! What a compliment!”

“Words mean things.”

“Working” means accepting an exchange of value for at least one one instance of services rendered. For however long it took to negotiate, schedule, and execute the one single shoot, she was a working model. It does not require that job to be a major source of income (it can even be in exchange for goods) or success in…

“I thought I was admitting to a poor word choice.”

I didn’t claim that you said it was my fault - your reply seemed a quite snarky and dismissive (as does this most recent one) as if I am somehow wrong or at fault here for ‘misinterpreting’ what the phrase “of any kind” means, when you are the one using it improperly (and continuing to defend that improper use).

“So I didn’t define my terms precisely.”

Using the phrase “model of any kind” to mean a model of a specific kind (with a certain amount of minimum success) seems rather odd. It seemed you were emphasizing the fact that she could not have been a supermodel as Trump claims because she was not even a model of any kind at all - when she actually was.

I find it odd that in their reply to me, they say that this is the case - but in their reply to you, they say “I’m talking about if Melania were any kind of fashion model, not even a household name” (and, of course, in their comment to which I replied, they say, “a working model of any kind”.

Ok, I saw no use of the word “supermodel”, but reading back now the conversation contains a reference to the idea of a “extraordinary ability green card”.

“There is virtually no evidence that Melania was a working model of any kind pre-Trump. None.”

Perhaps “I will have no problem acknowledging that” would have been a better choice in words here, as that is what I mean - it would not make me “happy” to acknowledge that any person was killed by police (or anyone) for no fault of their own.

“I believe the reality is THIS particular standoff was provoked by the officer’s entry. You don’t”

I was responding to this comment of yours:
