One of the greats, and one of my favorites. With whom will Stephen King collaborate now?

I couldâve put this in the other RIP threadâŠ
but she reminds me of my own late mumâŠappearance-wise, at least.
Trump is gonna be so pissed off that he wonât be in the headlines for a while.
Addendum: I feel badly for the great-grandchildren, as they wonât get to know her. I didnât get to know any of my grandparents very well, what with my parents being old enough to be grandparents, and it sucks.
Also from the lady herself: âGrief is the price we pay for love.â

At Tulane in the late 80s, there was this very particular look worn by Jewish girls from NY and NJ - a huge inside out sweatshirt - almost a dress - leggings, white high-top Roeboks, scrunch socks, and then a huge mess of curly hair with the top section in a scrunchie. It was such a specific look. Every day I saw dozens of girls in this uniform. I miss it now. It was fun and looked so comfy.

âSomebody shouldâve stopped me from making that statement.â - Way to take responsibility.
Yeah, he admitted it. I hope his family is going to be well taken-care-of.

I mean, heâs still saying it was his call to make and he made the wrong call.
I can understand also being upset that the people you trusted to tell you when you were being stupid failed to do so. Multiple people had to have thought about it and said âyep, sounds good, this is how we should handle itâ before it went out to the press.

The lead actresses that lived to see âValley of the Dollsâ (1967) become a cult classic didnât all embrace the film until much later, particularly Patty Duke. Lee Grant didnât either, but I think she picked up on it sooner, and Barbara Parkins was always on-board with the campiness of the flick.
Neither Ms. Duke or Ms. Grant of them ever mentioned, on the record (that I know of), their management telling them they shouldnât make disparaging remarks about the film. But they did come out and say, yeah okay, might as well embrace it. And that takes personal growth, in any case; the same growth brings about personal responsibility, IMNSHO.
I took it as he had a lot of issues with his management team and that this was one problem that he realized later on was some bad advice. Itâs pretty common for musicians to end up with crap management.

How in the fuck she could support #45, I donât know. I mean, she gave money to the GOPâŠand this only encourages other âworking womenâ as she called them, to support him as well.
This is almost as bad, to me, as finding out that Bill Cosby was a serial rapist. People listen to people like her. âGee, if Miss Loretta Lynn says Trumpâs okay, he must be!â

Saw her live. She was super funny.
No one is seems to be talking much about Loretta Lynn dying and I love her. She was iconic and her songs were everywhere on the radio in my childhood. I am mad there isnât more on social media sharing her songs and anecdotes about her.
