I Need a Mentor (in International Development)

Post 193057 by northxnorthwest deleted for the following reason: Heya, I feel for you but askme isn't really a place to go fishing for private conversation like this. If you want to give this another shot more as a small set of answerable questions that people can address in answers in the thread rather than a request for email, that'd be fine. -- cortex

Do cable companies see everything you download?

Could modern society exist without displacing animals?

Post 192721 by vash deleted for the following reason: You may need to flesh this question out a bit more, explain why you're asking and outline your parameters a little better. This is clearly not going where you want it to go and since it's not time sensitive it might be best to just start over. -- jessamyn

How do people find Walter White sympathetic? Seriously, how? The man raped his wife.

Post 192423 by namesarehard deleted for the following reason: Heya, this is kind of a lot of I Don't Like This, Amirite framing and kind of chatty as a result, and the followup feels like it's pushing harder in that direction. Might be a way to rework this and ask again but as is it's a bit of a weird fit for askme. -- cortex

Post 192371 by sandmanwv deleted for the following reason: If you want to give this another shot next week more in the stripped down vein of your followup comment, that'd probably be fine, but as stated this is kind of a lot of distracting not-great framing getting in the way of that. -- cortex
