Three quick hits in January? That rings a bell...

Our first hit: Austrian actor and opera director Otto Schenk (no. 44) has died at age 94: https://www.derstandard.de/story/3000000252157/schauspiellegende-otto-schenk-verstorben

I am fuming. Worst is that our politicians are so scared of losing our friendship with the U.S. that they aren't telling the orange fuck to fuck the fuck off. If we give up Greenland for him, I will lose all faith in our government. Last time, Mette Frederiksen acted fast and told him off. Now she is on her knees and suggesting that we will see. We are literally being threatened by a close ally and no one with power is doing shit other than telling how close we will work with the people of Greenland and Trump to solve this in the best way.

Cancer spread to the liver; withdrawing from all treatments. Bye bye, Pepe.

R.I.P. Otto Schenk, but I'm also a little relieved now. After the DL and the once again outrageous French List, we were really under pressure!

I really hope we won't copy DL 2024… Anyway, obit to come, he was my joker if I remember well, quite impressed by how fast it's going.

Now Muhammad Ssegirinya actually dead at 37.

French academician Gabriel de Broglie dead at 93, death expected, as he was frail in the last two years.

He is not as articulative as he used to be just a short time ago. His imitators might start sounding more like him than he does himself. But of course most of the men of his age have been dead for years already, and he still seems to be able to move without much difficulty.

You're never going to impart any sense in to someone as dense as Crem. It's like talking to brick. If everyone muted him, he might finally fuck off.

Charles Person, the youngest of the original 13 members of the Freedom Riders, has died. He was 82. Person was a key figure in the Civil Rights Movement and Vietnam War veteran who retired from the U.S. Marine Corps in 1981. https://www.fox5atlanta.com/news/charles-person-youngest-original-freedom-rider-dies-82

The grooming scandal is old news. It’s only back in the new because it suits the agenda of racists, fascists and those who want to suck off Musk. It’s a shame so many idiots are swallowing it…if you’ll pardon the pun.

Some of us relax by reading or watching TV or listening to music, Crem relaxes dreaming of mushroom clouds.

@drol When he saw the latest update

Yesterday I completed my full Eighties matrix of 40 songs. Much easier than the 70s. I am going to have to hope other players pick tunes that I could not find room for. Surprised how low some nailed on classics actually charted

Nah, they were blatantly lying.

I think he has a house in the UK as well so he won’t be just in rented accommodation for years.

Same procedere as last year... I can't stand that anymore!

It’s about time Hank Scorpio made a return visit to the world of Springfield. Oo-ah, shouldn’t be allowed!

Why are you so apocalyptic about international affairs on a daily?
