I've been thinking about this, and actually I'd like people to say "he met his deadlines and delivered the page count" about me after I die. Being able to do that consistently is a point of pride and professionalism.
His columns were "delivered professionally on time and to length" apparently. As a professional writer myself, I tend to consider that the bare minimum.
In this week's Beano, Minnie the Minx and the Bash Street Kids set sail for Dublin, while Roger the Dodger detects some dodging on the beach. Scripts by me, art by Laura Howell, Shannon Gallant and Barrie Appleby. Cover by Laura too. Out now!
The Boots Theory arguments shows how no one on this website is willing to have even their most trivial assumptions challenged
Sad to hear of the death of Emperor Palpatine. He was larger-than-life, always outspoken and secretly very kind in private.
As someone who politely replied to his previous post: I feel like the QTs and replies to this pretty gracious mea culpa are an illustration of most of the worst of Bluesky.
Apologies: I’m not online much, I haven't paid any attention to Rod Liddle for a long time, I didn't really know his extremes. I do now: I wouldn’t have posted if I'd known. I’ve seen death of difficult people up close (and its impact on others): that’s the only reason it was on my mind as an issue.
This was posted today by the Ukrainian publishers of Bunny Vs Monkey, Dogman, and many others. Just heartbreaking.

Weird how all those Americans who were suddenly experts about red cards haven’t said a single fucking thing about Football since.
I’m looking forward to a new X-Men movie because some of these movies have really not been true to the source material

Also, a great host and had all the best bounties.
Sad to hear that Jabba the Hutt got strangled by one of his captives. He was very generous in inviting me to his sail barge parties and he always held the held the room. He was outspoken and combative at times, but he had a sense of humour and infectious laugh.
Mild spoilers for Spider-Man, but there’s a very good Denzel Washington movie called Fallen that also does that multiple people talking to the protagonist scene really well.
When It Happens there is going to be such a shower of bullshit about what is acceptable public discourse, when absolutely none of that courtesy will be extended in the other direction.
