I thought shame is an old emotion. It was still shame, irrespective of what it was directed at.

If you don't reply, there's a risk that the mischaracterisation will become the orthodox interpretation. But there's no reason the reply has to be a dedicated paper in that journal, and not a subsection of a related paper you were planning to write anyway.

He has the same ridiculous expression that Jeremy Irons had in the interview where he objected to gay marriage on the grounds that men might marry their sons to dodge taxes. It screams: stupid, arrogant rich man presumes to speak authoritatively on the basis of zero expertise.

It would be a good start if you were paid more and only had to do it for three days a week.

Certainly not with a well-executed, bold, idiosyncratic vision. But that's consistent with the Bochum campus 😁

You have lost your mind. I'm sure there's some angle from which I could take a flattering picture of Donald Trump, but it wouldn't make him beautiful.

On the plus side, I won't miss it.

Sometimes I email exes, to re-break up with them in case they'd forgotten.

(They haven't forgotten. They've moved on with their lives.)

You do not know what you are talking about. I'm not asking you to imagine it. He literally said it.
