Fixing my own post: Alice Munro, author who blamed her 9 year old daughter for being sexually molested by Munro's then husband, on Monday May 13, 2024, at Port Hope, Ontario, Canada.

Despite all this, Skinner wrote, Munro went back to Fremlin and remained with him for the rest of his life.

“She said that she had been ‘told too late,’” Skinner wrote, that “she loved him too much, and that our misogynistic culture was to blame if I expected her to deny her own needs, sacrifice for her children and make up for the failings of men. She was adamant that whatever had happened was between me and my stepfather. It had nothing to do with her.”

What a disgusting person. And blaming the "misogynistic culture" for a woman who could easily support herself staying with a man who abused her own daughter.

Shelly Duval, iconic and oddly endearing actress, 75.

What a screen presence. RIP

She played a great Olive Oyl in Popeye, an underrated film.

She made such a seamless transition from preacher's wife to hooker in McCabe and Mrs Miller.

Also the creative force behind 4 rather fine anthology series: Fairy Tale Theatre (the best of the bunch), Tall Tales and Legends, Nightmare Classics (I really like their attempt at 'Turn of the Screw' with Amy Irving and a young but very charismatic Balthazar Getty), and Bedtime Stories.

I think she qualifies as grotesquely pretty. I say this with love and respect only, and I like to think she'd laugh at the description.

Dr. Ruth and Richard Simmons.

Both had that ability to appeal, somehow, to wide audiences.

Depressing to hear of someone younger than me dying of natural causes, sure makes me feel old.

she's literally my age. whenever I hear about someone my age dying of cancer/natural causes it really makes me think about my own mortality and this sick feeling that my clock is getting a lot closer to :00.

yup. plus she was a star (for a while at least) on a couple of extremely successful TV series. if u r in a certain age demographic range (i.e. mine), u definitely were familiar with shannen doherty.

"she's literally my age. whenever I hear about someone my age dying of cancer/natural causes it really makes me think about my own mortality and this sick feeling that my clock is getting a lot closer to :00."

Wait until you hit 60 and you realize you might not have much time left. Depressing.

But when it hit 70, somehow I felt liberated. At 60 it's a feeling. At 70 I knew it and decided I want to make the best of it. I'm trying because that feeling becomes knowledge.
