Not the headline with "Rupert Murdoch" and "at 92" I was hoping for.

I never imagined I would be so glad to see so many people shuffle off. I guess that's getting older for ya.

There's an aphorism that science progresses one funeral at a time, but I wonder if the same could be said of culture.

This world is bullshit!

Akira Toriyama has recently died at 68 and here's this corrupt media mogul shithead at 92 doing this.

DIE ALREADY!!

The absolute worst thing about Rupert Murdoch is that his spawn are worse than he is.

Akira Toriyama kicks the bucket but this asshole is not only still kicking, but remarried at 92? Cruel fucking world.

:( Hadn't heard about Toriyama, and thought he must be older.

Why won't the goddamn ghoul die? Its dessicated husk is barely human to begin with.

Explosive diarrhea is a far better idea.

You ever read about how in pre-Renaissance Europe marriages were arranged between nobility not for reason of love or romantic feelings between the two people but for purely political reasons? Just wondering.

I mean… they are the landed gentry.

I think his offsprings aren't far from his mindset.

Maybe they'll fight over his empire and tear it apart.

It’s already been arranged, Lachlan is the one taking over.

Hope his sons die off as well, maybe the whole family can die in a horrifically painful plane crash or an orca can eat their yacht.

I don't know why but your comment made me think of this but from Cum Town: "me and my friends live a simple life! Cooking to death in helicopter gas!"

God damn it, that headline got my hopes up for a second.

ShaggySnacks@lemmy.myserv.one · 6 pts · 2y

I feel your pain. I too was excited for a moment.

No shit! Even when I was at "for the 6th" time, I somehow was deeply invested in reading he "engaged in dying for the 6th time".

How connected is the new fiancée to the FSB?

Bakkoda@sh.itjust.works · 3 pts · 2y

I'm not sure you wanna know the answer to that.

Why won't he fucking die already.
