    That's still extremely sudden. The early reports say no foul play or drug use suspected.

    Agreed. The only detail that stands out to me is that he was touring through Florida on a stand-up tour, but I don't think even Floridian 'Rona would drop him with no warning like that.
    Finding out I was in the same room with that guy back in November is a trip though. I don't recall noticing him.

    He had an auto-immune disease, scleroderma to be exact. Normally not highly lethal, but is in the same group of stuff as fibromyalgia and lupus.

    He's a life-long hardcore conservative who is involved in a number of organizations whose sole goals are to churn out conservative pundits and conservative pundit talking points, such as Young America's Foundation and Hillsdale College.

    you know what's a really weird experience?

    you grow up mostly in the 90's, where Bob Saget is everywhere and possibly the safest figure on TV, not just because of Full House, but because of America's Funniest Home Videos, which he hosts, and does most of the jokes and voiceover for, and for a while you're like, great, awesome, it's good when geek dad says a normal thing but in a high voice, or so you think, but you're like 8 years old so you don't know shit about dick, and one day you turn on the TV and the switch has flipped and you just can't stand looking at the guy because you understand, now, that he's never said or done a single funny thing to date, it's all just fucking terrible, some of the most aggressively unfunny stuff you'll ever see in your life, but that doesn't actually change anything, everybody else in your family still wants to watch this shit, and you just can't convince them to change the channel, you're digging up the cable splitter, unscrewing cat-5 every Friday, prying batteries outta remotes, hiding em in your underpants drawer, and nothing works, you still wind up watching Bob Saget twice a week no matter what the fuck you do.

    and then, blessedly, both his shows are cancelled. and you get to stop paying attention to Bob Saget.

    until, the duration of one entire high school education give-or-take later, you get dragged to a screening of The Aristocrats by your girlfriend. and there's Bob Saget, allegedly a comedian, news to you, and he tells maybe not the funniest version of the joke, although it is funny, but possibly the vilest, and he's really riffing on it, having some genuine fun, and now you're a little mad, mad that you're laughing at geek dad again, but also because you've been maybe a little cheated, misinformed, geek dad was secretly a big gross weirdo all along, the kind of person who, right now, you actually like.

    that's real weird!

    anyway, RIP Bob Saget. I hope he appreciates how funny it is when they're jamming hot coals into his ass or whatever.

    in 1973 kissinger and Lê Đức Thọ were jointly awarded the nobel peace prize for their negotiations to end the US invasion of vietnam. tho refused to accept, his reasoning was that the war wasn't actually over and the US had been in violation of the paris accords basically the whole time. he was nicer about it than a lot of people probably would've been:
    However, since the signing of the Paris agreement, the United States and the Saigon administration continue in grave violation of a number of key clauses of this agreement. The Saigon administration, aided and encouraged by the United States, continues its acts of war. Peace has not yet really been established in South Vietnam. In these circumstances it is impossible for me to accept the 1973 Nobel Prize for Peace which the committee has bestowed on me. Once the Paris accord on Vietnam is respected, the arms are silenced and a real peace is established in South Vietnam, I will be able to consider accepting this prize. With my thanks to the Nobel Prize Committee please accept, madame, my sincere respects.

    kissinger, the opportunistic sniveling worm that he is, accepted without reservation

    Generally speaking, if nobody's willing to make a thread for the individual celebrity, there's probably a thread the news can be posted in that's not this one. Probably makes sense to talk about Bob Saget or Betty White in the TV thread, for instance, given that that's where both did the work they're most famous for.

    I had seen that magazine cover and it really confused me when she died that she was listed as being 99.

    While I’m glad Robert Durst is dead as an individual he unfortunately did all the damage he could do and basically got away with it. And the systems of inequality and injustice that allowed him to get away with it despite being obviously guilty are in many ways still in place. Doesn’t feel like a victory when it’s basically just an old man dying of natural causes, ie the best outcome any human being can really hope for
