The Immortal

Well folks, I think it's safe to say Twitter is as good as dead at this point. Not too long ago I posted here about Twitter disabling search access to anonymous users and lurkers, I had a feeling that it wasn't going to stop there and that eventually they would disable anonymous access entirely and sure enough, they have done it. Twitter have completely disabled their site towards anonymous viewers and you are now forced to log in just to view the site. Twitter was one of my primary sources to find out info about the status of lesser known famous people who've not been around in the public eye such as B List NASCAR drivers or club level Spanish footballers, so with the site now inaccessible it just becomes harder to do that. Elon Musk is claiming that it's "temporary" but I have a feeling it's just another one of his BS statements, it was clear for a while now that this is the direction that Musk was going to take the site towards. I have a feeling we'll be seeing a paywall for Twitter next.

Alan Arkin is a unique hit for me.

Posting my replacements here just in case (originally sent via PM) since I won't have the time to post them later. Replace Naina Yeltsina with Yuriko, Princess Mikasa Replace Kate Keltie with Ryan Minor Replace Buzz Aldrin with Henri Pescarolo Replace John Devitt (Swimmer) with Zoleka Mandela Replace Christina Applegate with Johnny Ruffo

Today's been pretty quiet. 9 deaths listed on the 22nd and nothing today as of now.

Pescarolo didn't attend due to a hospitalization and sadly seems to be quite ill now with multiple health issues, sounded very weak in a phone interview in which he explained why he missed the event. https://www.ouest-france.fr/sport/24-heures-du-mans/24-heures-du-mans-2023-henri-pescarolo-ne-sera-pas-present-au-centenaire-847bade4-043d-11ee-ba53-20eb6006433b On a side note, I don't believe that Larrousse was there either. Not sure what's up with him, but he's 83 so very possible he might not be in the best health either.

If there's anything I've learned over the many years I've spent on Youtube (and the internet in general), it's that you never know what the person is truly like behind the screen. Even if they seem to be nice and friendly on the outside, you never know if that person is genuine or is hiding something. My cousin found out the hard way that his once favorite childhood Minecraft youtuber (SkyDoesMinecraft/Adam Dahlberg) turned out to become a monster.

Seeing how crudely built the vessel (OceansGate Titan) is, I'm surprised it had as many successful voyages as it did, considering it looks more like an underwater coffin than a submarine. I'm guessing the submarine suffered a hull failure and imploded/disintegrated, resulting in a quick death for the crew.

Some personal suggestions for immortals. Ike Schab - Pearl Harbor Veteran. Hospitalized at least 4 times since 2022 from pneumonia, COVID-19 and other respiratory issues. In poor health for years. His last wish was to make a visit to Pearl Harbor for its 80th anniversary, back in 2021. He's still alive at the age of 102. Roger Donlon - Has had "end stage Parkinson's disease" since 2018 and the Parkinson's is supposedly because of Agent Orange exposure. Still attended the most recent Medal Of Honor recipients convention (though his wife mentioned it's most likely his last) and still tries to be involved military related events despite being extremely frail because of the Parkinson's. Fred Lorenzen - Old NASCAR driver who was diagnosed with dementia 10 years, but reportedly had symptoms since the 1990s. Seems to have rapidly declined in the last few years. Cresencia Garcia - Another WWII veteran (lot of WWII veterans seem to be immortals). Was in critical condition in the ICU with COVID when she was 100 years old and lived to tell the tale. Now 103, looked skeletal in her most recent appearance a couple months ago. Derek Draper - Suffered from a severe COVID-19 case which he has miraculously survived thus far despite being in a coma for months and in intensive care for at least a year, suffering multiple other complications like sepsis twice, kidney damage that required surgery and multiple organ failure. His recent photos clearly show he's a testament to immortality.

Cresencia Garcia (WW2)

Here. Also an Inter Miami fan because of my connections to said city so hearing the Messi news is like an icing on the cake.

Has filed a lawsuit against her colleagues.

Congrats AFB. Great obscure pick selection as well.

As we wait for the death of a certain U.S President so that we can post his last photo on this thread, here is supposedly the last known photo of U.S President Warren Harding (on the left in the photo) to keep us occupied for the time being.

My uncle lives in Miami and I go there to visit him on occasion and I've never seen what you describe whenever I'm at the airport there. I've only seen staff offer wheelchairs to elders (and other people for that matter) who have medical conditions, require some kind of walking assistance like a cane, or who are in otherwise clearly in need of one.

Cresencia Garcia (WW2)

I'm pretty sure he outlived one of those Italian children as well. Bruno Naldi. Not sure if Bruno's sisters Giuliana and Mafalda are alive.

If I voted Jimmy Carter it would only increase his lifespan, so I voted Bob Barker instead.

Jimmy Carter on June 2nd.

Agreed. Especially cases like this where the person in question is a non notable friend of a celebrity who just happens to get diagnosed with something. I mean I'm not notable in any way and Marc Spelmann (of BGT fame) and I happen to be family friends so I'm sure this is a fairly common occurrence.

MMMDP Form Guide #12 Horst-Dieter Hottges German footballer who spent most of his club career playing for Werder Bremen, as well as making three World Cup appearances playing for Germany in 1966, 1970 and 1974. Suffering from dementia for years now and compared to some of his adversaries, is on the severe end of the dementia scale. Lives in a nursing home receiving full time care.

MMMDP Form Guide #4 Dianne Feinstein Who is she? A vampire? A zombie? A mummy perhaps? No, just a frail 89 year old senator from the United States who's still serving, for some reason.

Another notable fast dwindling group to watch out for. The 6888th Central Postal Directory Battalion also known as Six Triple Eight, the only all-black women's unit sent overseas during the war. There's only 6 known surviving members. Anna Mae Robertson (99) - Looked terrible in recent public appearance. Romay Davis (103) - The oldest survivor, but seemingly the healthiest of the lot. Crescencia Garcia (103) - Total immortal. Was hospitalized several times as far as I know, was in critical condition in the ICU with Covid when she was 100 but miraculously recovered, still very looking very much skeletal. Lena King (100) - Confirmed alive on her 100th birthday this year, but no public news since 2022. Fran McClendon (101/102) - Looked decent for her age in last known public appearance but no news in a while Gladys Blount (100) - Very frail physically, but still alert and sharp.

Update on James van Hoften. I've just discovered that he resigned from Gatwick Airport's board of directors on May 13th, 2019. Absolutely no idea on his current whereabouts though, we don't know if he's moved back to the USA or he still lives here in the UK.

Zimbabwe cricketer Heath Streak critically ill with stage 4 cancer.

Am autistic as well. Considering celebrity death predictions is a pretty obscure and very specific hobby to be interested in, I wouldn't be surprised if there are more of us deathlisters on the spectrum.
