Because they're sports players, first and foremost, and people aren't watching ESPN for evaluation of role model behavior? Scrutinizing the behavior of celebrities outside of their work is more along the style of gossip channels l

Criminal behavior is generally presumed to be a reflection of a politician's character, which may affect a politician's decision making in office. I doubt the same inferences should be made so strongly regarding sports players.

I really wanted to read that article, but it kept jumping back to the top of the page every 30 or so seconds. Plus, the bar at the top would randomly pop back down a couple seconds after I would scroll.

I don't watch sports networks of any kind, but I've seen anecdotes online that ESPN, especially sportscenter, is losing viewers because of politicization of content, where people just want sports talk.

It sounds like modern technology and culture are just more enabling of the kind of withdrawal that is typical of depression. In past decades it would be much more difficult for a human to willingly wall him or herself inside of a single roo

The sooner you make a change, the fewer of your life's pages will be blank. Think more of the future and less of the past. I know how it feels to think that you missed out on years of your young life, but you soon forget when you fill

Sounds like a case of survivorship bias. For every Floyd and Hendrix, there are probably dozens of then contemporary pop artists who never made it out of the 60s.

Why do I feel like etherium is being crammed into all kinds of places where it really isn't necessary, and offers little or no real benefit over conventional solutions? Perhaps I'm misunderstanding something here. As an example in

Ah yes, that's the one. I was hoping someone would remember, as I could not.

I'm curious, have you ever combined meditation with psychoactive substances? I've found that marijuana and amphetamines both make it substantially easier for me to meditate and calm my mind. I'm not particularly experienced t

I wouldn't go so far as to call desire to fit in or display wealth/success a weakness, considering it is a sexual strategy which is basic human nature and continues to be generally successful today. In this sense juicero arguably

The article is a swipe at evil silicon valley corporations who hide their products' lack of value behind fancy advertisements; but are consumers with freedom to choose not responsible for their choices?

So management in general doesn't deserve more than $X? CEOs do much more than simply broker deals, and the rest is explained by basic market principles-good CEOs are scarce, and therefore well compensated.

The fact that you're offended does not make a comment rude. It makes a valid, interesting point, that disdain for rules can be common to genius and criminality. In fact, I think your comment is exceptionally rude and disrespectful. If

Search for yourself. Google "gender inequality u.s." and you won't see a single mention of a female dominated industry on the front page.

The problem is the inane assumption, which is now taken as a fact (without rigorous substantiation) that any male heavy gender ratio is a result of bias by white men (not even necessarily the majority, mind you, we simply ignore fields wher

If we're talking about Joe's personal use, a single poppy plant produces multiple doses, according to this[1] reference and some anecdotal drug forum dose suggestions, on the order of tens of mg. 1. https://erowid.org&#x

I concede that I neglected drug interactions; however when you said vastly different effects, I interpreted it as meaning unique effects based on dosage, similar to something like DXM, as opposed to two ends of a relatively linear scale of

The comment implied that repeated doses to a given person are wildly unpredictable. This is false. Further, you absolutely can approximate how long tolerance lasts, but my point was that you can predict that your tolerance is reduced after
