Jane's never gone public exposing any intimacies with McCartney - never exploited the association. Class act. The whole point of what happened was she had her own life & career I suppose... But Macca lived with the Asher family - benefited from their upper class erudition & encouragement - including her Mum being a Music Teacher...

Indeed - although 'Metta' can never be selfish, that's why we usually translate that as 'Loving-Kindness' instead.

romance is the act, lust the desire. (like "guilt" is to "shame"... another widely misused term, ie "i feel guilty" - which is grammatically incorrect; correct being "i feel as if i'm guilty", or better yet, "i feel ashamed")

They released 3 albums in their short time together. Apparently, Bobby Caldwell "reformed" the band in 2015, but with all new members. Rod Evans quit the band many many times.

E. Jean Carroll seems not a bit skanky to me, and she does not seem an extortionist, and a court at least would seem to agree.

Mr Bodenheim can be entertaining, but my tolerance for reactionary boors has diminished since it's become particularly likely that they will try to kill me and will kill many less able to defend themselves than I…but what has modern conservatism become beyond considering it immoral to try to defend the weak, God's or The Market's rejected, against the strong?
