Right after she died all the headlines said she was muslim, but the local NY news clarified that while her husband was muslim, She never identified her self as such. At first I thought, this is just another case of people judging by the name etc. Then I saw the family suicide news, and thought, how sad, that poor…

I had so many arguments with people who kept saying , well they was partying with Cosby and now they want to sue for rape or it was the 70s that’s what people did was drugs and have sex. Like doing drugs and partying was only done by Cosby, there weren’t rock stars, actors and anyone else partying too and didn’t get…

I know my dad pretty well. I love my dad. We have a good relationship. But if dozens and dozens of women claimed he raped them throughout the past 40-50 years.... I would believe them. Not because I ever suspected my dad of being anyone other than who he was to me... But because... How the fuck do you deny all…

I do feel bad for her. She’s been systematically victimized all her life by a professional abuser. It must be horrible to even try to think of the father you thought of as loving and protective in this context.

OK, this is a genuinely great idea. They could donate it to whatever charity they want!

The reason no one mentions the dead man’s crimes is that they are irrelevant to the way he was treated while in custody. 

Thomas was diagnosed with a bipolar disorder and his family claims the shooting was sparked by a mental breakdown, an allegation that could be backed up by his erratic behavior, as described by The Washington Post

Well, I’m white and I have to moisturized my hair: coconut oil, Shea, whatever I can find in the “Ethnic Hair Section” (that shouldn’t have to be in a little, tiny space) because I don’t have “good hair.”

He also did it because she wouldn’t slant the news the way he wanted it. He would call her on the carpet and chew her out and she would respond with “fair and balanced, Roger.”

She was a good person, in the iron grip of her own mind, and her own worst enemy. She was pretty together when she was interacting with her family regularly.
