Very shocking. She somehow becomes the first Drag Race winner to ever die. The Vivienne encapsulated everything I love about British drag and humor. Rest in peace.

Seen in a recent Instagram picture with his daughter Lorraine.

I am curious about the amount of media coverage Luigi Mangione is receiving worldwide (specifically outside of the U.S.) and whether that would make him deserving of his own thread (or a more general one like "aspiring revolutionaries"). His televised trial is sure to draw attention from millions of watchers and sympathizers, and many comments online are defending him and hailing him as a national hero for reinvigorating a sentiment of class consciousness. It is clear that he knew and understood the consequences of his actions and is willing to go to trial to defend his stance, but he is also going up against influential healthcare oligarchs who may want to make an example out of him.

I can definitely see it. He also jokingly made many health-related statements that might not mean much individually, but the message was always that he was not feeling well, that he would not be around to witness Trump's second term, etc. Granted, he is very old, but he seems healthy-looking enough.

I think Ulitzer95 is anything but shocked based on the posted picture. Nonetheless, still a sad death at a young age.

TMZ claiming to have a picture of the body and even showing the arms and tattoos to prove it's really him... Shameless.

His cognitive decline must have begun 96 years ago. There's actually a very recent video of him and his wife meeting with Renaud Mannheim and his neo-Nazi friends. The rugby match playing in the back shows that it was maybe taken yesterday. https://x.com/i/status/1840363977915629859 There are new pictures as well: https://x.com/JCoupable/status/1840429541518360739

This is purely speculative, but... in his last interview, when asked about his memorial, he said "I don't have a date yet, but I'm not feeling too well," so he might have already known that something was wrong.

Winters can be particularly difficult for some of the picks on the list as they become increasingly frailer and sicker. I still expect a double-digit final score, with many deaths occurring in November and December (and continuing through January, February and March).

Not sure how much of that is true, unfortunately. I did some research on X and found this apparently new picture from yesterday, debunking those rumors: https://x.com/ThomasJoly732/status/1808570926989988252. I think he's likely to see 2025, but anything can happen at that age.

Here's a video of him reacting to the results of the recent 2024 European Parliament election, with a cane by his side: https://www.tiktok.com/@tenqofficiel/video/7379340011071622432. Seeing Jordan Bardella's score being more than twice as high as Macron's representative, he says "Dans l'cul, Lulu" (basically "up your ass" in response to Macron's heavy defeat). Here's also a tweet with a picture apparently taken on his birthday: https://x.com/Baudouin_wissel/status/1803754264767984073. And here's another recent picture I was able to find: https://x.com/55Bellechasse/status/1803776122720493772.

Here's a Twitter thread mentioning a couple of apparently reliable Brazilian journalistic sources that claim that he's alive: https://x.com/ggreenwald/status/1803155821695525152

Can she really be trusted if she claims that he's well?

Two Wikipedians have been going at it... is... was... is... was...

The New Stateman has it now.. how reliable is it? Edit: Looks like we all saw the same thing, my bad!
