1 pointI've been seeing Prince Charles' sausage fingers making the rounds on Reddit. His feet look equally as bad. Theories of total heart failure, too much salt, gout, water retention keep getting made in the thread. I couldn't possibly comment further.

1 pointThe Noose Teen Tightens George Pérez, comic book artist primarily known for his pencilling, and dead pool pick primarily known for his pancreatic cancering, has died aged 67. But you know what comic book deaths are like – they'll retcon him back in a couple of years. Pérez was known for his work with both Marvel and DC Comics, including Wonder Woman and The Avengers. It's almost hard to believe that all those MCU films – even though I hear they sometimes look almost live-action – were drawn in pencil. Unfortunately for fans, now that he's dead, the franchise is over, so I hope this latest Multigrain of Breadness film wrapped up the whole plot sufficiently. Penciller Pérez's cancerous Páncreaz hasn't created much crisis on Inverse Earth, where only 3 players pencilled him into their teams. If it's any comfort to Hell and Neobrakeon, there may be infinite parallel realities in which you're doing better than this. GAINED TOTAL =1. Death Impends 0 =1. Sean 0 =1.

1 pointCRISIS OF INFINITE DEATHS 8/50 6th May 2022 Highly respected comic book artist George Perez has died, after a long battle with cancer, to give The Crowdsourced Deathlist another success. Perez worked with Marvel Comics from the early 70s, and became known as the principle artist for The Avengers. With their widely popular movie franchise, any "Emma Peel?" jokes here will be incredibly dated. (No, I cannot slip a Diana Rigg reference into anything, honestly...) Early on, he was interested with metafiction and multiverses, and in one case, drew a story where the Fantastic Four met their own creators. (An idea Stan Lee borrowed time and again!) In the 1980s he moved to DC Comics, penning their highly successful New Teen Titans series, and rebooting Wonder Woman. He also come up with Crisis on Infinite Earths, an all star DC series involving most of their heroes in a multiverse, which sounds like every comic book film ever nowadays. Perez was widely respected in his industry and counted among his fans the likes of Neil Gaiman. He announced late stage pancreatic cancer last year and found himself on the list. We note that cruelty of fate that a man clearly beloved in his field is no more, yet that fucker Tobin continues to breathe.

1 pointThere is no side to pick. She is 96 and has gradually become less active, her son and grandson have been taking on duties that she once did. This is a point of transition from Queen to King. She could abdicate and leave her family to figure it all out, pretty much as she had to when her father died, or help them settle into the roles they are going to be taking, sooner rather than later. She is putting things into place for when she is no longer here and, seriously, she doesn't have long now.

1 pointCharles proved to be many years ahead of his time with his views on conservation and the environment, so I don't really understand the antipathy. I distinctly remember him saying that he worried that we were using too much plastic, and that was many years ago.
