“The absence of evidence is not the evidence of absence.”

Her responses regarding her status as a Jew are not inconsistent. The claims that she never completed her conversion didn’t come from the Rabbis at Columbia’s Hillel. They came from a source that wouldn’t even name itself, and some tweets in 2012 where she mentioned Jesus, although she was also tweeting about events…

But there’s no verification or evidence that she never converted. She said she did, and the Rabbi’s at her school’s Hillel aren’t responding to people attempting to reach them about her (and why should they?). Her mother confirmed to the New York Times that her father had a Sephardic background, and that’s what…

That doesn’t have anything to do with her Jewish status, though. 

The source for the Tablet article was anonymous. The Rabbis at Columbia’s Hillel, where she took the b’nai mitzvah course, wouldn’t respond to any attempts to contact them.

Eh, I think for the type of roles/films that he was going for, playing Cedric Diggory was enough to launch his career.

How is she not Jewish?

Oh, I know that it was her choice, but they didn’t have to kill her like that to get her off the show. They could have had free-spirit Sybil go off to school in America or somewhere, all the while continuing to fight for women’s rights and wear fabulous pants. Instead she married Branson (who was sort of a controlling …

The only person in that family who didn’t suck was season 1 Sybil, so of course they totally tanked her character and then killed her off.

I kind of wonder if Jen goes that hard for Ben because she knows there is a genetic component to addiction, and is sending a message to her kids that if they go down that path she will personally throw their asses in rehab again and again and again, just like she did with their father.

People didn’t stop ripping Amy Winehouse apart for her struggles until that documentary came out and they straight up saw footage of her shitty father and shitty husband interfering with her recovery (and getting her hooked in the first place) for their own personal gains.

I’ve kind of wondered if part of what has drawn her to Pete so strongly is that she’s going through it post-Manchester, and he understands what it’s like to have your life forever changed by a terror attack.

She’s been very upfront about how what happened in Manchester changed how she views the world, and how she now realizes that if you have a bit of happiness, go for it, because you never know what’s going to happen.

Oh, I was definitely not implying that it was Ariana’s job to fix him, or that she could have done anything to prevent his death. None of it is on her in the slightest. It’s very sad that he wasn’t able to overcome his demons, and while the statement “you can’t help someone who doesn’t want to help themselves” is…

Good lord, what are they saying about Jen? He’s the father of her four(?) children, so whether or not they end their marriage, he’s still part of her family. 

People definitely blamed Michelle for Heath’s death (they were broken up at that point, so it was the same crap that Ariana is getting), and if Bobby Brown hadn’t been so publicly and consistently The Worst, he wouldn’t have caught the blame he did. Hell, if he had white skin, he still could have been The Worst and…

That’s rough, and I’m sorry that your family has had to deal with that. My point was that there is nothing to say that Mac Miller was that type of person, just because he struggled with addiction. Being an addict doesn’t necessarily mean that someone is a terrible person. Terrible people can become addicts, and…

It sounds like your daughter is a terrible person independent of her addiction.

What the fuck are you even talking about?

You know that addiction is a disease, right?
