I'm at the point now where every time I get a BBC News notification I stupidly assume he's dead only to open it to see that a some shit like a 35 year old woman in Rochdale has had her leg bitten off by a neighbours pet pig.

Tom Hennessy, a London, Ontario World War II veteran who completed a 'Walk of Gratitude' in 2022, whereby he covered 100 miles in support of younger veterans in need, has died. He was 101. Hennessy served as spitfire fighter pilot in multiple allied campaigns. https://london.ctvnews.ca/london-world-war-ii-veteran-has-passed-away-1.6733803

I don't care what you say you are. You told on yourself by using a racist slur, hence you getting the facepalm. There are plenty of other sources. Did you know Stefanik was campaigning for him in New Hampshire this week? Did you know that that's the next primary coming up? Have you followed what happened to the NH Democrats ballot, and why that means many may flip parties and vote Haley? Were you aware that 40% of NH voters are independent? We'll see what happens January 23rd. Your facepalm to me confirmed you don't follow the news, on top of that messy bragging about how much of an independent thinker you are.

Tom Baker is 90.

Adam Harrison, son of Rick Harrison from Pawn Stars, dead at 39 from an overdose.

These Cash Luna alts are bloody gnats, when I think I've killed them all suddenly another pops up. Clapped this one out anyway.

Stefanik is literally on Trump's shortlist: https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/2024-election/trump-elise-stefanik-vp-pick-prospect-rcna133599 'She's a killer': Trump eyes Rep. Elise Stefanik as a potential VP pick The former president has spoken highly of the New York congresswoman, and his allies say she's high on the list of vice presidential prospects. Lol, I'll take a facepalm from people who don't actually read the news.

I think the running mate will be Elise Stefanik. A woman who will not upstage him. During the Speaker of the House shenanigans, a lot of us wondered why Stefanik wasn't going for it. That's because she loves the role of hyping up whatever mediocre (at best) dude. Haley has too much star power.

I Can Never Go Home Anymore never fails to make me misty. Though Remember (Walking in the Sand) is my favorite. RIP to one of the girl group greats

Lord Trimlestown (wiki), hereditary peer (though an Irish title so was never a member of the House of Lords) dead at 93.

Charmian Abrahams, aka Charmian Eyre, who played Mavis Hooper in Crossroads from 1981-85, at the end of a decades long career, has died after being hit by a vehicle, aged 96.

The Killers. Going to see them in June.

Remember him well, a decent man. Sorry to hear of this.

Tracheostomy done on Fittipaldi but he's out of ICU.

May it bring much joy and merriment to the Deadpooling ecosystem as well as obviously much insight and wisdom! Long live the enema!! Now be a good time to mention that I'm getting strong vibes and feelings in my gut again. Some very significant famous deaths in the next 5 -6 days. Big or much talked about names on here or in their fields. Something is brewing. Not neccesarily official DeathList deaths but could also some of them.

This popped up today in my bakebook memories, the most unfortunate front page I've seen in years

Oldest baronet is now Henry Stephenson, presumed 3rd Baronet (wiki, born November 1926). Means there are now no living baronets born before QEII. However, there are still 5 living peers who were born between Sep 1920 and Mar 1926.

Jerry Lawler - Had a massive stroke early in 2023. Has kind of stepped away from even local appearances,and his not even posting on his social media. Unusual for him as he is very much in the mold of a Pete Rose/Pele type who would show up to the opening of an Aldi's so long as their was a tv crew around to film it.

Reports that actress Joyce Randolph has died: Awaiting the usual.

I rather have the people around Biden run the country than Trumps people. It’d be fucking chaos again but worse.
