The "Magic" has gone away....

And I just learned that Judith Durham of The Seekers died the other day, too.  It seems a bad week for Australian woman singers ... and those of us who loved listening to them.

RIP Issey Miyake, fashion designer who amongst other things came up with Steve Jobs' iconic look.

(He was also a survivor of Hiroshima, but he always downplayed that part of his life.)

One meeting with Liz Truss was all it took for her to go 'Fuck this. Chuck, you're up.'

She's abdicated,. with Extreme Prejudice.

I love the smell of rotaries in the morning. You know one time, I got to work early, before the rush hour. I walked through the empty carpark, I didn't see one bloody Prius or Golf. And that smell, you know that gasoline smell, the whole carpark, smelled like.... ....speed.

One day they're going to ban them.

RE: Cursed Thread of 2022
RIP Leath Sheales, "long-time writer, developer, and friend of Onyx Path". He worked, as you can see here, on Werewolf: The Apocalypse 20th Anniversary Edition (the only line in which I don't have any of his work at all), several Chronicles of Darkness games, and multiple points in the Trinity Continuum. If you were on the OPP discord, he was Quantakinetic (an Æon reference). I didn't know that until I got the news, just as I barely realized how much of his work I'd already enjoyed. This death may not diminish me as much as it does his colleagues, but I'm feeling a little smaller now.

RIP Louise Fletcher, best-known to two different generations for playing Nurse Ratched in One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest and Kai Winn in Star Trek: Deep Space Nine.



RIP Pharoah Sanders, influential jazz saxophonist.
