And you're a Joan Rivers denier! And that's why we get along so well.

listen, you dumbasses

I'm not a denier. I don't deny her longevity. I don't deny her talent. Nor do I deny her viciousness. Nor do I overlook her callousness.

I guess I was blessed to be born without The Homosexualist Adoration Gene. I love Alec Baldwin but would never make excuses for the stupid things he does and says. More importantly, I have no impulse to spend time explaining how homophobic things he has said are magically the opposite of homophobic because I said so.

"As my son Cooper and I mourn the loss of my mother, we want to thank everyone for the beautiful cards and flowers conveying heartfelt messages and condolences, which continue to arrive from around the world and through social media. My mother would have been overwhelmed by the scope and depth of the love that people have expressed for her. It is certainly helping to lift our spirits during this time.

We are forever grateful for your kindness and support in continuing to honor my mother’s legacy, and for remembering the joy and laughter that she brought to so many."

- Melissa Rivers

One can hope that she will rise up to pick up her mother's mantle.

Somehow, I doubt she will. She seems devoid of any real talent.

Melissa has problems. I worked with her ex-best friend. She's needy, selfish, thinks the world revolves around her, angry and delusional.

Joan knew all these things, but she felt tremendous guilt. Guilt for putting her career first, guilt over what happened to Edgar. So she tried to make up for her maternal shortcomings with a million dollar wedding and getting Melissa gigs where ever she could.

Make no mistake, though. Melissa is destroyed by this. Though, we should all get a hundred and fifty million to soften the blow when we lose our moms.

Watched the Fashion Police tribute to Joan. I had never watched the show and was amazed at how many celebrities had been guests on it. You can tell they genuinely liked and respected Joan. Melissa said Fashion Police will return in January. Will be interesting to see if they replace Joan. From what I gathered by watching the tribute, she was the heart and soul of the show.

Melissa for Joan's replacement! Think of all the years she has left to hack up her face (some more)!

You would rather she had left them to PETA, maybe?
#844

listen, you dumbasses

I mean, lord knows you understand her every meaning and I misunderstand them. Maybe they'll go to organizations for the homeless so that they can be auctioned off as a benefit? But if, like, her point was to get homeless people in fur for some reason I can only assume it was a tone deaf notion of generosity. Homeless people are vulnerable to attack on the street and in the shelter system and theft is a major problem for them. But what do I know? Nothing. Maybe somebody will offer a homeless woman $25 cash for one of the furs and then turn around and sell it in a consignment shop or something.

You know nothing is right. You said it, not me.

Musto messed up an old joke that's all.

Joan was an old friend and sparring partner of PETA';s Dan Mathews, who told the joke in a Huff Post column last week. Here, but first, seriously, stop taking everything so seriously:






In 2010 Joan helped PETA lobby the New York City Council to pass a bill against chaining dogs and promoting spaying and neutering. "I hope this bill passes not just for the sake of the poor dogs tied up outside in the cold, but for the sake of the sons of b*****s who do this -- because what I'd do to the creeps would be far worse than what any police officer would do!" she wrote. Both bills passed....

Last month, only a few weeks before she went into the hospital, I met with Joan one last time. She told me she hadn't bought any new furs since Melissa's PETA campaign and intended to bequeath her furs to PETA to give to the homeless. We'll all miss Joan terribly, but her legacy will live on in many meaningful ways.

Watched the Fashion Police tribute last night. Was surprised at how well produced it was. Melissa & co did such a great job packaging clips around different themes. I do wonder if they'll consider doing that on a larger scale and airing edited versions as re-runs. When they were showing a package of Joan flubbing jokes on the air - essentially her blooper reel - I admit I "awww"'d at the Pharrell one. She couldn't get his name right and then just yelled out, "Oh, whatever, I listen to Stephen Sondheim!"

Joan's jokes going to the Smithsonian?

"One potential destination is the Smithsonian's National Museum of American History, which in 2011 mounted an exhibit around its acquisition of Phyllis Diller's gag file. Says Valeska Hilbig, the museum's deputy director, "We would be interested in discussing her legacy with [Rivers'] family when the time is right." Another possible home is the Library of Congress, which holds Bob Hope's joke collection. A more accessible option would be to scan them and put them online — something Rodney Dangerfield's widow did with his one-liners this year on Rodney.com. "It was a labor of love and continues to be," says Joan Dangerfield."

"The New York City Office of Chief Medical Examiner released the findings of its post mortem on Joan Rivers and found that she died because oxygen was cut off to her brain during her throat procedure. Rivers was sedated with Propofol.

The examiner said the lack of oxygen was a "predictable complication" from the procedure that's done under anesthesia. (It's not clear if the anesthesia or the procedure made her stop breathing.) The investigation revealed Rivers had the throat procedure to evaluate changes in her voice and to deal with acid reflux."
