I’m in my 40's. I had my little girl at 46, and am planning my second at 50 next year. Yes, I had to freeze my eggs (at 43, when I first heard about it), and use IVF (which, with my insurance, costs around $10-15K with medication).

In other news, the slide was later found full of bullet holes after being surrounded by police shouting “Stop resisting!”

Cops in my neighborhood used to play hide-and-seek with each other in the middle of their shifts, I shit-you-not.

let’s also point out that he’s failing miserably with a loaded fire arm on his hip (at a children’s playground)...

Nah, it’s funny because it’s a cop. I see parents eat it on slides occasionally, and it never elicits more than some sympathetic winces. An armed Enforcer of The Law just blasting down a slide with no children evident is funny because it takes cops’ flopping to pretend that their jobs are especially dangerous and lays…

Sorry you can’t handle a little thought bro. You’re free to focus on the dumb aspects and ignore any deeper meaning others might find, but other people are allowed to think and connect even a light-hearted thing to broader societal issues, and there is often utility in doing that, even if not everyone wants to…

I’m a three time skin cancer survivor (so far). My dermatologist recently recommended Cetaphil Sheer Mineral Face SPF 50. It goes on clear without the white residue and has no smell. I’m also a fan of CeraVe skin care products, but have not used their sunscreen. Don’t forget to coat the top of your hands and fingers.…

Sending you love

How very sad that someone so intelligent, beautiful and talented, who made such a huge contribution to the arts and other causes, should have to suffer so, her entire life.

I remember when “Nothing Compares 2 U” was in heavy rotation on VH-1 (because our town wasn’t allowed MTV) - my mother saw the video and said “Not only is that voice stunning, she is beautiful, too”, it made me double-take and rethink what made women “beautiful”

Ditto

I cannot stop sobbing.

If memory serves, I think Frank Sinatra threatened to kick her ass as well.

Only 56.

I remember buying that album on vinyl after hearing Troy just once. She stood out in every way imaginable. Her music, her look, her attitude. Loved her ever since.

Sinead wrote that she was lost without her son Shane, the twin of her soul, who died 18 months ago after escaping a hospital where he had been on suicide watch.

She held on to this life as long as she was able before stepping into mystery. May her spirit know peace, and her memory be a blessing always. 

Indeed. Mental illness is a sane reaction having to suffer through life in an insane world. Then she lost her son, a major tragedy that would break any soul. May she be at peace, wherever she is.

She was one hell of a artist. Defiant and strong and unabashedly human. She was lambasted for years after the SNL shit (I remember Joe Pesci threatening her the next show and getting applause for it) and she never caved. And the end, she was right all along and no one apologized for making her a pariah.

You weren’t a “troubled soul,” Sinead. Your soul RIGHTFULLY responded to the shit you were surrounded by and lived through. RIP.

So talented, hard life, she tried to call out the church❤️
