... It comes across as Rosebud doing anything and everything she can to stay in Dehlin’s life. She seems to be trying to make sure she still gets attention from him, even if it’s for negative reasons if that is what it takes. There are much better ways of keeping records and seeking justice for wom...

It just occurred to me that I want to be very clear that I have already thoroughly distributed, in writing and with documentation, all of the most important information. In other words, there is no value in attempting to silence me personally because silencing me won’t silence the most important in...

In studies published in 2020 and 2021, Foxman and her colleagues reported that an initial infection of rhinovirus induced a strong and rapid innate immune response that prevented a subsequent infection with influenza or SARS-CoV-2 in an organoid model. https://www.the-scientist.com/what-happens-whe...

I will still use independent threads when I think I need to... No. That's not how mega threads work. I respectfully request that you not clutter the thread with aggressions, passive aggressions, or advice.

Those numbers are up from the end of the previous, pandemic-period year of...

I disagree. The feeling of discomfort for me is NOT caused by doubting or distrusting my opinions, but rather that I doubt or distrust Rosebud's unsubstantiated statements of fact. Repeating those accusations without ever providing support makes me uncomfortable because it is a vehicle she uses to,...

Listen, if Rosebud were posting on a variety of topics, then NBD. It’s the one-note posters who spam the board occasionally like the few that have a megathread dedicated to them. If Rosebud were suddenly to start posting on whatever topic in whatever forum(s) then cool, she’s engaging with the inte...
