5 hours ago, Thatcher said:Sophie Wilmès now in intensive care. Besides being the serving Foreign Minister, she also served as Belgium’s first female PM from October 19 - October 20.
One day? Oh...

Oddly I think a SCOTUS vacancy opening up would probably help Trump, to an extent that it's not impossible the GOP would conveniently 'fail' to confirm a nominee. With a Justice on the line the pitch to conservative Christians becomes - hold your nose, vote for me, and Roe v Wade gets overturned. My evidence is that that was the pitch in 2016 too: https://www.cnbc.com/2016/10/19/trump-ill-appoint-supreme-court-justices-to-overturn-roe-v-wade-abortion-case.html .

I had a Kraftwerk LP I ‘obtained’ from the radio station I worked at, transferred to cassette (Yh we talkin 1984). Album destroyed in a flood, cassette missing/long gone. I can not find a copy of this album at all - like it never existed. Was early days when just Ralf + Florian. Prolly never figure the mystery out.
RIP.
The band's three pre-Autobahn albums have never been issued on CD and go pretty much unacknowledged. They aren't much like the A-material - apparently the second one doesn't have any synths on.

That's not unusual for his children.

He's had enough of being PM, it's boring and he can't fuck around any more. So he's faking his own death. "The funeral will be closed-casket with no cameras and take place on Cayo Espanto."

I hope everyone brings pillows to his funeral when it happens and has a good nap. Fucking disrespectful cunt.
I'd be quite happy with someone bringing a pillow to the White House now and causing his funeral.

7 minutes ago, Deathray said:I assume they meant he was the last leader of the cold war, who has died.
Jimmy Carter will be the last leader of the cold war to die.
Although it wouldn't suprise me if the BBC fucked this up.
Surely there's a decent chance Gorby will outlive him.

Pegging in office sounds more like Bill's thing.

Does Asia Bibi count as a 'terrorist target'? She is surely at considerable risk of being killed (albeit that risk would go away very quickly if she is, as she should be, given asylum, and it's more of a risk for the remainder of 2018 rather than into 2019) and would definitely obit here.

Former jailbird and the only man ever to - apparently - recover from Alzheimers, Ernest Saunders, is 83 later this month
He actually had his jail term reduced because of his "illness"

He's Alberto Fujimori's childhood hero.

I'm very glad to see his passing being marked (there was an article on Variety too). Him and many others like him may not be household names but very influential through their work and deserve the notice.

She certainly can't be that ill: https://metro.co.uk/2018/09/30/serial-killer-rose-west-wins-prison-bake-off-with-victoria-sponge-cake-7991940/

Do you think as they were hauling him out on the stretcher they were saying "Tomy" "To you"

"I always knew it would be okay if I arrived some place and was greeted by one of you" - a bit sinister under the circumstances...
