Suspending Israel for a song with propaganda in it when other countries have already been expelled (Belarus) or outright rejected (Georgia) is not "anti - Israel". It's called breaking the rules of the contest and facing the consequences. The song is called "October Rain", that's certainly not a creative decision.

Doesn’t look like it, however there’s a hint of mad hatter around.

Video from his 95th birthday: Not the slightest sign of decline. Lisa Lu is his female equivalent, she is still acting as of 2024 and does not seem to age at all.

John 'Golden' Richards, who played college football for BYU before an NFL career with Dallas, Chicago and Denver, has died. He was 73. https://www.deseret.com/2024/2/23/24081658/former-byu-football-star-and-dallas-cowboys-receiver-golden-richards-dies-at-the-age-of-73

Tbf, he DM'd me last night and we spoke for a bit and I'm satisfied that he's merely a lurker of 12+years who joined up a couple of years back.

There's a difference between clinical depression and intolerable unhappiness, but there seems to be a reluctance nowadays to acknowledge the latter. It is not "mental illness".

Les Slatter died last year - September 2023, in fact - https://www.lutontown.co.uk/news/2023/september/les-slatter-1931-2023/

Most likely we will have again a Japanese WOLP. After Ceccarelli's death and Itooka becoming world's 2nd oldest person there is now a very strong possibility for her to become WOLP since Maria is already nearly 117 and recent posts in her social media point to a worsening health. Concerning Kame Uema if she gets validated it would mean we still have a Top 10 full of 114+-year-olds.

If you remember Zorders then you’re definitely an older user who returned under a new guise. But who?

It's probably more than half now.

Ain't no massive cock like the evacuation zone for the moving of an unexploded bomb in Plymouth.

Manohar Joshi (1937-2024) "One day I will become the king of Immortals and MyMango will spam my thread all day long!" (Joshi's shattered dreams) "Close but no cigar" (Murli Manohar Joshi) Age at death: 86 Known health issues: suffering from brain cancer after years of failing health, he suffered a massive cerebral hemorrhage in June 2023, putting him in a coma for good. Back then the chances of recovery were bleak, but in December he was giving interviews for his 86th birthday. Hospitalised in very critical condition in February 2024 after heart attack. Cause of death: Heart attack. Alignment: Seemed reasonably a nice guy, differently from his namesake Murli Manohar Joshi, who has a reputation of being an asshole.

I just killed a mosquito Edit: he was 3 weeks old. Died of blunt force trauma.

What's Russian for cunts?

Russia is a past winner but it didn't stop it from being kicked out. As an Israeli I hope that Israel will receive this slap to the face, as it is run by fascists and scums (I mean... same as the UK but you catch my drift)

Historians will remember this day as the turning point in Gaza vs Israel

I do this every year a list of the names on my 1000 name longlist that are not captured in DDP picks 1. Gloria Whelan (b.1923) – Writer 2. Paul Goldsmith (b.1925) – Racing Driver 3. Hermano da silva Ramos (b.1925) – Racing Driver 4. John Rhodes (b.1927) – Racing Driver 5. Jane Gardam (b.1928) – Writer 6. Pamela Hicks (b.1929) - Aristocrat 7. Caroline Graham (b.1931) – Writer 8. Maurice Gee (b.1931) – Writer 9. Alex Soler-Roig (b.1932) – Racing Driver 10. Katherine Paterson (b.1932) – Writer 11. Jeremy Isaacs (b.1932) – Media Executive 12. Alf Dubs (b.1932) – Politician 13. Johnathan Gash (b.1933) – Writer 14. Sylvia Engdahl (b.1933) – Writer 15. Lance Gibbs (b.1934) – Cricketer 16. Giorgio Armani (b.1934) – Fashion Designer 17. Erich von Daniken (b.1935) – Writer 18. Susan Cooper (b.1935) – Writer 19. Norman Foster (b.1935) - Architect 20. Nuria Espert (b.1935) - Theatre Director You will note that there are a lot of Writers (for my theme team) and Racing Drivers - the later is because I included all the most popular picks from the Scavenger Hunt in my long list and the Racing Drivers were older and more obscure Now it is possible that I have missed some of these due to how they are recorded on the DDP page as opposed to my list so if any are wrong do let me know (there are quite a few 1935 names and I had to arrange them by birthday to know which ones to include). I already found that I had forgot to remove John Nettleton from my Long list

One of the regional cannabis dispensaries is having a Ric Flair meet & greet on the morrow!!! SirC would love to meet a person who has a DL thread.

A decision that makes little commercial or artistic sense. Reading between the lines here, it's the aged creative team that have killed it off, potentially this show had the immortality of - say - Coronation Street, but that would have required those that created it passing on the brand to new generations of writers. Wallace and Gromit will doubtless go the same way in a couple of decades. Nah was well past it's sell by date really, in any case will continue to churn out repeat fees (37 years worth) for some considerable time, pretty good retirement fund for all concerned. Think Wallace and Gromit will die when Peter Sallis does, really can't see anyone replacing him as Wallace really made the part his own
