As bad as it sounds I really hope Jimmy dies imminently now.It is clear he is no longer living merely existing at best and suffering at worst. Seeing that picture of him triggered the same memory of my maternal Grandmother in her her final hours aspirating and changing colour whereby I remember saying to my Aunt in tears outside the room "Dear God just let this end".Fortunately she died a few minutes later.I sincerely hope Jimmy is reunited with his beloved parents, siblings, grandson and the love of his life Rosalyn very soon.

Because he's registered to vote in Georgia.

Yeshayahu Gavish (wiki), ancient IDF major general, dead at 99.

Yeah, saw this this morning on The Hollywood Reporter. Family rifts are not uncommon, but not informing other members of a passing is really low.

I also cant help thinking looking at his Birthday images that his wife Rosalynn would have been deeply distressed that these were taken let alone made public.She always loved Jimmy dearly and was immensely proud and defensive of him and his legacy much like Nancy Reagan was with Ron.I think if she could see him being paraded out on his deathbed looking like a mummified corpse she should simultaneously turn in her grave and weep.I cant help but think if she was alive and of sound mind she would have kept him indoors and not let him be seen in such an awful state in the same way Nancy never allowed Ron to be pictured in his final years except for a 90th birthday picture which was tasteful and not degrading.This picture is the epitome of degrading.There is no way he can consent to his pictures being taken at this point.I couldnt make out his children in the wider picture.Wonder if any of them off the record agree with me. At his stage in life and health only his relatives and closest friends should be granted access to him there is no justification to showing a dying man in such a compromised state to the general public.Makes me quite angry as political leanings aside I really like Jimmy Carter as a man and an individual and I feel he has done so much good to the world over his long life and governed with integrity and conviction and to see him shown like this feels beyond wrong. If I am ever dying( as opposed to sudden death) I would hate to be shown off publicly in such a way and if anyone dared to show such pictures of my family in this state I would be so angry and devastated.

Jimmy Carter holds open casket birthday.

I sincerely doubt he knows anything at this point .I find it hard to believe he knows there is an election going on or is awake enough to know he is still alive at this point.

I recognise it. My wife and father in law had an uncle they adored and it was mutual. It was also a rare bond in that side of the family where vendettas and grudges prevail. (I should point out that he lived a fair distance away and didn't cope well with modern technology so we usually contacted each other with visits and hadn't visited that summer as he was recovering from chemo and needed the rest.) He was suffering from cancer when he took a sudden illness and died in 2022. His wife was older and quite frail so another aunt told her she would let the rest of the family know. The widow contacted us by letter two months later, to say how sorry she was we'd missed the funeral. I then had to tell my father in law that the father figure in his life (his own dad ran out on the family to shack up with a teenager back in the sixties and refuses to have anything to do with his blood relations) had died. The aforementioned aunt had deliberately blocked us from knowing. And that's how one of the nicest, genuinely class acts I've met had neither of the two people in his family he was closest to at his funeral. Frankly, I will never forgive this.

He'll hang around those two more weeks until early voting. It's all that's left to do. Edit: It does make me wonder though, how he looks deader than any living person I've seen - except for that dehydrated monk two weeks before his death. We have seen 100-year olds in better shape. I wonder how it works.

Update: August and September got us 7 more hits which is not that bad in 2024. And to be honest and fair: In 2023 we got only to more hits by the end of September (in 2022, however, 10 more hits at this point of the game). Etush and I currently have the most hits. For comparison: RoverAndOut had a total of 22 hits last year. Well, we still have 3 months to catch up with that result... As far as I can see, we do have the following hits: 01.

A dog in that state would be humanely put down without another thought. I really want to believe there's enough left of Jimmy in there for him to consent to being kept alive like this so he can vote, but... Jesus...

Ryan’s Hope star, Ron Hale dead at 78.

Trump made fun of Carter yesterday . It's at least the second time he says the same exact things. The guy is clearly senile. He reminds me of Ronald Reagan always telling the same jokes with the same introduction as it was always the first time.

Clearly only 'alive' as a technicality at this point. So depressing to see.

Karl Mostert, a Batman comic book artist, has died. He was 43. Mostert had been part of Comic Con Africa a week before his death. https://bleedingcool.com/comics/batman-artist-karl-mostert-has-died-at-the-age-of-43/

I often confused him with Amos Horev. This guy anyway is more important, being the last living commander of the six days war.

According to wiki Daniel Williams Grenadian governor-general (1996-2008) died at age of 88. I have to be honest and for a split second my heart skipped a beat thinking it was William Daniels.

His son has confirmed as much:

Damn John Amos gone too. Kris Kristofferson, John Ashton, Dikembe Mutombo, Pete Rose, Frank Fritz from American Pickers, and now John fucking Amos…past four or five days have been busier in the US then the whole year.

Immediately thought of this:

I can't really understand if the cunt is dead or not. Condolences continue to arrive, even from the presidency, and denial seems very weak, as they were concealing the news. Rarely seen a death being handled worse than this.
