The R.I.P. thread

She was a fearless pioneer and suffered a lot of abuse at the beginning of her career. Ireland was a theocracy in those days run by reactionary and prudish bishops. Her openness about female sexuality was shocking and revolutionary at the time, but she, and others like her helped subsequent generations to live much freer and less oppressed lives.
Fair play to her :+1:t3::slightly_smiling_face:

It was the Ritz on Saturday. I wanted to go to Claridgeā€™s, but it was my sisterā€™s wedding anniversary and she got to choose.

Wasnā€™t that a reply to Bekloppt? I donā€™t think Richard Wilson has died.

This thread has become too frivolous, it should be grave.

Apologies to Victor Meldrew/Richard Wilson. He is alive and well! I saw his picture and rattled off his catch phrase, without seeing the context.

Grave indeed @Bekloppt

The total number of journalists killed in Gaza since October 7th is 165.

Shame on all the western journalists not speaking out for their fellow journalists.

Not the most important thing in times like this, but he was a really under appreciated part of their league win having already largely taken over running the team during Ranieriā€™s frequent absences to be with his sick mother during that season.

Jesus fuck. I didnt realize he died.

I read a lot of anger about it yesterday, but assumed he was eventually fished out and the anger was just to the slow response. It is amazing how little that organization has professionalized itself despite all the money that has come in and with it the intense focus on its lack of professionalism.

Was that at the Olympics?

Fucking Crossfit
