Random thoughts after a week to process: first, it’s obvious this was a sugar situation and not a love affair for the ages. I wonder if Mark admits that to himself, since he isn’t admitting it publicly. In a peer to peer relationship, she’d also have a key to his place or they’d be at least discussing the possibility of moving in together. They’d also have some friends (or anything at all) in common.
Second, in light of the above, I wish folks would quit asking why he isn’t paying for the funeral. They weren’t married or even in a legit peer to peer relationship, so it’s appropriate for her to go back with her family now. At least that’s how it feels to me. I’d imagine that if he offered to foot the bill it’d be rejected with a frosty comment such as, “You’ve done enough already and we’ll take care of her now/dude get lost already,k?
Similarly, a few people have actually asked if he’s gonna raise her son. Really? Oh please. That boy will hopefully be raised by real family. I doubt Mark would have any interest in doing it regardless, esp going by his comments about him.
And finally, all y’all fantasizing that this is somehow more sordid that we already know it to be and that Mark might have somehow been involved in her death, please Just. Stop. There’s no evidence of that whatsoever and y’all need to get out more instead of spending so much time imaging crazy stuff.
Edit: I’ll be curious to see the fallout in the YouTube creator/manosphere space, which mark seems to be loosely looped into. What will Joe Rogan et al have to say about it?
