Harke & Burr and The Creep were stories that really caught me when I started reading Judge Dredd/2000AD. Hadn’t realised he had done so much TV work afterwards.

Rush Limbaugh obituary

Rightwing broadcaster known for a brand of attacking ‘shock jock’ radio that set the tone for the internet age of politics

www.theguardian.com

Yeah obviously the Guardian isn't a fan, but the facts are there. It's a litany of wtf's.

 

[Lili Marlene]

The lesson people should have learned from him imho is that you can't factcheck your way into stopping people listening to him, you have to be funnier as well as more right on.

A lad up the road from me, age around the 60 mark I'd say. That's 3 people who've died between our crossroads and the next one up (about 3km away) since the start of the pandemic

edit: none of the deaths covid-related though (unless this latest guy was, dunno the details yet)

 

[shidheat]

it's been nearly a year. i've lost my father, my uncle, a neighbour, my brother in law's mother, and the mother of a friend during this time. none of them had covid. but it could be that circumstances added to their stress and didn't help things. could also be that that's a normal amount of people to die in a year.
