i mean really it's the internet after all, you can find convincing articles that poke suspicious holes in just about anything. reason dictates that people generally only act when there's a perceived benefit to their action. i'm not seeing how his death was more beneficial to Love than his continued life.
and if you're handwriting has never changed when you're messed up on drugs then you've either never tried to write while tripping or never actually gotten higher than a mild weed buzz.

I think Courtney Love is smarter than people realise, even she probably knows that her career wouldn't be what it is if it were for two things, the fact that she banged Kurt Cobain and the fact that she's a psycho publicity magnet.
Perhaps she felt Cobain's star was falling or that there was no place to go but down, and knew that Kurt dying at his peak would canonize him like it has many stars before him and she could profit from his booming popularity and the legacy of his death, not to mention have complete control over his estate, which is important to consider especially if it's true that Cobain had planned to divorce her.
