Yeah, but that's life, we all have to go at one time or another, at least Prince Philip lived to the age of 99.

The media? It's the damn lawyer putting it out there, and he didn't even know what he was talking about.

but he's reporting to the media and they don't get proper clarification and that's the issue. The actress I mentioned Tanya Roberts was not dead she was in a coma I believe someone said she was dead they ran with it and the next day she it was taken back and then when she didn't regain consciousness they reported her death again. It's like can you wait, I blame social media because that's why they jump on a news story they want it because they can be shared as the source in social media, and if they wait someone else gets shared first.

But it was her own husband who thought she was and reported her to be dead. For once the media is innocent.

I dunno. Given a choice, I'd much rather be alive. Prince Philip (as he was so old) was a poor points payer in my deadpool too. So that was annoying. But points all the same. Good old racist Phil.

The adults in his early life were cruel and brutal, his mother in particular.

He would not go home because of the abuse and would wander the streets befriending

street dogs. It's very difficult to learn about the devastation that was his 'childhood'.

It's perfectly understandable he would turn to drugs.

Befriended dogs? He has a list of animal cruelty charges as long as your arm.

As a child/teen, he befriended them.

I know he neglected his own pack. I think he was on tour a lot

and hired a neglectful caretaker of the dogs.

actually it was her manager, the "partner" not termed her husband said he visited her to "say goodbye" did not say she was dead, the issue was during COVID-19 no visitation was allowed or very restrictive this also may have been a cause for her death because she had an infection that do to COVID-19 restrictions people are not going to doctors for anything else because of these restrictions. Her manager heard he went to "say goodbye" and he thought it meant she was near death and that got out again no one checked, it may have been her managers fault but you have to check before you report, not just run with the first thing you hear.

RIP DMX

This one really makes me sad. DMX knew what he was up against and had been seeking help. He made a choice to pick up more time and it(apparently)killed him.

Fucking hard drugs are the curse of the earth.


Rest in Peace

Swiss Beats says it isn't true^

Swizz Beatz is shutting down rumors that Beyoncé and JAY-Z are planning to purchase DMX’s masters and give to his children for free.

Following the tragic passing of the “X Gon’ Give It To Ya” emcee, an unnamed source began to circulate an article about The Carters’ alleged purchase. The title of the article read, “JAY-Z & Beyoncé are buying back DMX’s masters for $10 million & will give to his 17 kids for free.” The piece spread across social media like wildfire, although there was no real source to confirm the claims. However, Swizz, who was close friends with X, took to Instagram to refute those rumors.

Here's the link for the rest of the article.

JAY-Z and Beyoncé did no...s - REVOLT

^^It's good that Swizz Beats spoke up and refuted the rumors, because unfortunately many believe whatever is put on social media as fact and truth, and will just run with it, before even finding out if it's real or not. You would think that they would have learned by now, that everything that's put out on social media, is not always true.

Plus he only has 15 kids not 17.

DMX's family says the rapper will be mourned at a memorial with family and close friends at the Barclays Center in NY.
