I'm just glad someone was able to solve this death do quickly.

I just want to picture that it is a conspiracy, and some low-level illuminati intern is reading a public page from Albuquerque and going "Oh poo poo, I have to let my manager know this guy figured it out."

I know this it nitpicky, but I'm pretty sure the cocaine addiction would be the thing I'd mention before the alcoholism.

Robin Williams dying makes me glad I don't have a facebook any more. My family was pretty close with his for a long time although I never met him in person (my childhood was loosely analagous to the time when he was white hot famous and busy 24/7). His mother and my grandmother were very good friends, me and my cousins went to a birthday party for his son one time and my Uncle lives in the house right down the street from him.

Regardless of this I am 100% sure my facebook is going to be full of my cousins pretending he was like a second uncle to us or something when in reality he was the adulterous, super depressed son of our dead Grandmas bridge partner/drinking buddy. It sucks that he's dead and all because it shows that even people with all the resources in the world can't get the help they need sometimes but social media has really turned over a whole new centipede infested rock in the world of people trying to cash in on tragedy.

Could be she has depression or has dealt with suicidal thoughts in the past. I know it's a bit rough for me any time someone goes into detail about a suicide.

More suicide talk. This is especially difficult for me because 1) I really love my dad and I always grew up thinking he was really good at what he did and 2) because I've wrestled with depression and suicidal thoughts before.

But then he posted a thing about Robin Williams ending it with "I'm still speechless at his choosing to leave his children in the lurch."

tbf, that's, like, at least 50% of the posts in this thread, so it's not a new thing.

I don't have time to look, but maybe someone else can find the post with classy lady talking about how her boyfriend is obviously not cheating due to the large volume of semen he produces when she blows him, or something. Somebody else translated it into old english or something. It was much earlier in the thread and I think it should be reposted so that we all have something to laugh at for a little while.

Super hosed up reading about what happened. He made her shower in front of her after beating the poo poo outta whoever else was at her house, then tried to rape her.

Guess it's not surprising coming from a guy who has a long history of assault and prides himself on being an "alpha male."

I think what's worse is that a lot of people's reactions are "Well, yeah she's a porn star" yada yada. There's a lot of blaming Christy Mack and it's mind-blowing. The pics are terrifying and I can't imagine the pain she must be in. I do blame the guy that got out of there after being attacked for not calling 911 right away but otherwise I really hope they catch Warmachine soon and throw the book at him.

The few wife-beaters I've had the misfortune to know or encounter have always been perfectly charming and nice and even quite shy sometimes around other people, and it was only after the relationships broke down and they left that their victims told me what they were really like behind closed doors. Looking back, there were the odd few warning signs with some of them, like voicing slightly creepy views about women in conversations, or occasionally getting angry at minor things, but others I wouldn't have guessed, and they didn't fit the same stereotype or anything. One or two were indeed "bad boy" ex-cons, but some were very middle-class students, and one was a well-respected doctor and university lecturer. If they had anything at all in common, it's that they were entitled guys who thought they were owed a woman, and used violence to keep their partners under control after they got with them. Nothing about image or looks or lifestyle at all.

From the MMA thread: War Machine is a super deranged dude that literally changed his legal name to War Machine because he got a c&d on his fighting nickname, this isn't the first time he's beaten her (he brags about it) and you can watch him get choked unconscious against a guy named Ron Keslar if it brings you any catharsis

This whole thing is horrible and sad

More Robin Williams chat from my "favorite" conspiracy theorist acquaintance. Another friend posted that she was watching Patch Adams which led to 20+ comments about favorite Robin Williams movies. In the middle of them was this:

quote:

I think he was murdered to make it look like a suicide. Appearently he was a good neighborhood rebuilder kind of activist. Blessings to his family.

Yep, totally appropriate to the discussion. She also made this comment on my status about how difficult depression can be and to call someone or the National Suicide Hotline. I deleted her comment there.

What bothers me about the Christy Mack thing (besides the obvious beating) is that she's a porn star who has sex with other men for a living, and yet the MMA fighter was apparently okay with that, but not with her sleeping with another guy off camera? How do you get to that level of mental division? I mean, I'd never date a porn star anyway, but if I did it sure wouldn't be a serious, long term relationship because I couldn't expect someone who gets paid to have sex with other guys to be in a monogamous relationship. The two are mutually exclusive.
