If you've never listened to his song Uneasy Rider you should, it's hilarious and shows that back in his youth he was a hippie.

That's one of those people that, had you asked me, I would have sworn he was already dead.

Boing Boing has a nice list of all the media outlets that are calling what she did a "sexual relationship" instead of what it was, rape:

Are the two always mutually exclusive?Quote:

I really liked Santana/Naya Rivera. That is truly sad. I can only imagine what it was like for her son to wonder where she was for that whole time. Not to mention; god. How the hell. How the crap do you die like that? I mean, I guess it happens all the time. but... yuck.
No, they don't. Abusive sexual relationships are still sexual relationships, albeit not good ones.Quote:

You may think that's extreme, but then you wouldn't have seen how damn dangerous they can suddenly be :/
there are areas on rivers and lochs/tarns here that absolutely bloody well WILL kill your ass dead no matter how good a swimmer you are, etc
it's not about how big, or fierce etc per se, people completely misjudge things, and you can have squalls hammer down from the sky and over turn a boat
if they haven't found the boat?? maybe, hopefully they are on an island, ashore some place taking shelter, and all is well
sigh, we can hope and pray until bodies are found
we've had a few folk, including kids drown in the waters her over the SUmmer, as so many folk never treat the waters with the bloody seriousness they deserve, they are NOT a "beach"
apologies for vehemence, but losing your life, worse, a kid's....
example:

They have. Her four year old was asleep in the boat, with his life jacket on, aground on the north side of the lake. Her life jacket, and her purse, were still in the boat, no sign of her. They are treating it as a body recovery and not a missing persons issue.Quote:

Apparently they both were swimming.Quote:

2) He got in the boat, tired, who knows, and kicked her as she pushed him in and knocked her out, unknowing.
This is sad, indeed.
Same sort of accident happened to one of RFK's granddaughters back in April. I had read the child was playing with a ball which they were attempting to retrieve from out in the water and were blown out and unable to get to shore.

Like begets like: They don't. And news outlets that describe it as a sexual relationship are not wrong.Quote:

Re: Naya Rivera:
This was an interesting line to read. Who removed it? THis line is way too fucking ambiguous for a damn news agency to leave this shit on a cliffhanger. WHy the fuck would you put this line in and not explain anything more?Quote:
The vehicle Rivera and her son traveled to Lake Piru in was removed from the scene, though the boat remained in the water.
