Looks like the grim reaper has been photographed taking her away in person.

Satoshi Tajiri, creator of the Pokémon franchise, is 58.

The man in the photo seems to be Tsunekazu Ishihara, the current CEO of the Pokémon company. Don't know why but when you search for Tajiri's name on Google, you seem to get a 60/40 split of Tajiri and Ishihara pictures.

Jesus Fuckface Christ.

You guys can laugh all you want but it was tremendous. The greatest mugshot in history. Everyone agrees. People were amazed. A guy came up to him in the Sheriff's Office, big guy, strong guy, with tears in his eyes, and said he's never seen anything like it. People couldn't believe it, it was so amazing.

Danilo Miljanić was a communist and graduated in economics,was born on 10/may/1920 and was the oldest man in Montenegro, and now we don't have the information who is the oldest man in the country Danilo Miljanić, o comunista mais velho de Montenegro, faleceu (vijesti.me)

Milly is definitely one of the best-looking people born in 1913 1910 doesn’t really have any “stand-out” candidates at least in my opinion, especially following the deaths of Eusebio, Levy, and Avila. The US cohort is not doing so well with only 3 (Demers being in the best condition although one lady is anonymous). Italy is doing quite well with the same amount of people as US. Japan is doubling both of them. We’ll see how it all ends up in the next few years

Clarabell Demers (1910) and Milly Skjordahl (1913).

Right, that’s a wrap for this group.

It seems like the people who always seem like they're going to live forever, die right before they turn 100. Prince Phillip, Betty White, and now Bob Barker. RIP

Less than 4 months shy of 100. RIP.

Dead Carked-It-Ski Mathematician Ted Kaczynski has died by suicide at the age of 81. Another sobering indictment of the male mental health epidemic. Please, men, talk about your feelings. Reach out to someone, by any means you can. Write a letter and mail it if you have to. You might think the most famous Una is Stubbs or From The Saturdays, but in America, it was a Mr Bomber. A professor in the 1960s, he left academia to become a forest-dwelling survivalist recluse – probably pays about as well as teaching – and when this lifestyle became unviable, pivoted to fighting modernity by blowing people up. Okay, boomer! His illustrious career in anarcho-primitivist terrorism peaked with the Washington Post's publication of his 35,000-word manifesto against industrialisation and leftism, the most words spent denouncing the left in a Washington Post issue before Bernie Sanders ran for president. Given Kaczynski's opposition to technology and community, this internet forum must be testament to everything he despised – though, to be fair, most of the people mentioned on here probably feel the same way. 16 of you bet on Teddy – poetically, that's one for every bomb he mailed. His latest victims include @Toast, @chilean way, and @The Old Crem, who all receive 13 points in the post, the latter two falling together to joint 38th. 11 points blasts @Captain Hemlock out of the top 20 and 30; 10 points doubles @marinade's total; and a respective 8 and 7 points put @En Passant and @TheSpinosaurus in the bottom 6. Escaping with minor burns and shrapnel wounds is @machotrouts with 2 points – he's never around these days, so I don't suppose he'll notice – and while @Sir Creep only gets 5 points, it's enough to slide him back under my mother. But it's a Ted Katastrophi for @CaptainChorizo and @Great Uncle Bulgaria – they both leave the Zero Club with 10 and 19 points, respectively. Try not to be radicalised by this. GAINED TOTAL = 1.

Before anyone suggests anything, we don't need a Andrew Rankin vs Shane MacGowan, which Pogue goes first sweepstake.

I make that 91 charges across the 4 criminal trials in New York, Florida, Georgia and Washington DC. Extraordinary. And this one could be televised. Updated version of the article summing up the charges and his chances: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-61084161

Fulton County Courthouse in Atlanta has barricades going up. The DA requested back in May that the judges not schedule any other in-person hearings in August, so indictments are imminent.

Des Drummond: Ex-Great Britain, Leigh and Warrington winger dies - BBC Sport

Carl Mattsson, Sweden's oldest person as well as the oldest Swedish man ever, has died at 111.

Father Virgilio Elizondo, a well-known theologian, professor at the University of Notre Dame and former rector of San Fernando Cathedral, died Monday, according to several sources. The Bexar County (San Antonio) Medical Examiner’s Office verified his death late Monday night. Archdiocese of San Antonio officials did not return calls, nor did several other Catholic officials who knew Elizondo well. Widely considered the founder of U.S. Latino theology, Elizondo had been living under a cloud of suspicion after a lawsuit filed in Bexar County last May accused him of sexually abusing an unidentified boy more than 30 years ago. SC

Geoffrey Robinson has always sounded to me as much an opportunist as the Howard Marks's or Lynne Stewarts of the world. I didn't include him anywhere this year--I simply don't believe he's in as dire straits as presented at testimony. I need more news updates on his 'condition' with a quote from or visit to a physician at the very least before he even makes a 2017 list.SC Assuming you're under the impression that this is another Megrahi gambit, Robinson's been a longtime advocate for the Catholic Church to be far, far more transparent regarding its child abuse, rather than someone who was hiding information, so I doubt he'd be hamming up his ailment. I could see him lasting for some time, but that's moreso because the cancer is still stable last I've read of him and not because of deliberate exaggeration. It's quite a simple rule IMHO: if a person could 'potentially' use a health matter to obtain public sympathy, no matter how scant, they sure as hell are doing it. Don't be a lemming, don't believe the hype. It's my rule and it works for me; dismiss as you feel appropriate. I think history favors my position though. Citing an opposing name or two when you know I can throw at least a 2:1 ratio back at u is a disingenuous position. Talk to the hand. Insert Robinson into the rule and there you go. It's funny it's only ever the criminal or their attorney who proffer doomsday health, never a doctor on the stand confirming it. Think about it. SC Howard Marks has been out of prison for over 20 years, so I don't get why you keep including him in your list of jail-dodging malingerers.
