feeling grief over someone who shaped part of your childhood / teenage years ≠excusing his actions.
you can grieve someone and still not like them or agree with their actions. a reminder that two things can be true at once.

The TMZ article that comes up shows pictures of his dead body. They do not show his face, but they do show his arms, torso, and tattoos which I find extraordinarily tasteless and disrespectful. So if you are looking for news stories to confirm that this isn't an internet hoax, avoid that one.
Aaron Carter passing hits my heart. Sad no one helped him
like im literally devastated rn. literally he had been crying for help FOR YEARS. he wasn't insane like the media made him out to be, he was troubled and he didn't have the best people in his life to care for him.
is it really november 5th if there's not worldwide breaking news via a destiel meme
The fact that a news outlet (TMZ) decided that their need to get a scoop justified posting partial pictures of a young man's body just to demonstrate that it was his tattoos is the grossest fucking thing and I hope every single person who signed off on it regrets it every day for the rest of their lives.
Liam was dehumanised to a commodity from the age of 16 and the fact that even in death he's being treated like this is disgusting. I'm so sad and I'm so mad and I hope his family sues (if that's what they want to do).
There is no reason to share 'news' like this. It isn't journalism, it isn't in the public's interest. It's grubby and foul and to not even put a warning of the article's contents in the headline is fucking cruel.
Fuck TMZ.
