You would have imagined Fletcher would have been the last of Depeche Mode to go, not the first. The went downhill after Alan Wilder left but for 11 years they really were fantastic. Especially the run of Black Celebration, Music for the Masses, Violator then Songs of Faith and Devotion. That's a fairly spectacular series of albums. You're not wrong. Brilliant albums. Will be playing in honour today.

Tbf Toast Dumb and Dumber and Goodfellas both have Mike Starr in them, it's an easy mistake to make.

This reminds me of the conversation I had with my other half about Ghislaine Maxwell being related to Robert Maxwell to which she replied, "The coffee guy?"
Fuck sake.

We were watching Once Upon A Time In Hollywood last night when the it's very obviously Bruce Lee scene came on. I said, who's that? The panic across her face was palpable. I said, if you say Jackie Chan you're leaving the room.
She left the room.

They’re having a cremation, around one of those portable Webers next Tuesday.

Lester is another one of those I swear already popped his clogs.
Adding to my Mandela list of deaths (headed by Lynda Baron, who died 3 times according to my brain...).

It does say something about the values of a country when a man convicted of and jailed for tax fraud can still get a bronze statue of himself unveiled by its' queen years later.

Former gravel-voiced Dragon’s Den dragon Hillary Devey has died aged 65. Seriously, she was only 65.
“Wonder what she died of?” Asked no one.

Philip Baker Hall passed away on 12 June, aged 90.
Possibly most well known as Seinfeld's library detective, a gif of which was just posted here in the last few days.
RIP

It's one of the best scenes in Seinfeld. I think I'd go far enough to say that Bookman was the best one-off character in the whole series.
RIP

Just told Mrs Toast that Ray Liotta has died... "Ray Liotta has died!" "Who's that?" "Ray Liotta! You know him, great actor." "No, what's he been in?" "GoodFellas." "Is that the one with the furry van that looks like a dog?" I'm heading over to the match.com thread now. This reminds me of the conversation I had with my other half about Ghislaine Maxwell being related to Robert Maxwell to which she replied, "The coffee guy?" Fuck sake. We were watching Once Upon A Time In Hollywood last night when the it's very obviously Bruce Lee scene came on. I said, who's that? The panic across her face was palpable.

Daaaaaaaamn, I used to love his art. Still do, really. Jeph Loeb owes his career to him, because the stories themselves were nothing special, just standard "let's see how much of the rogues gallery we can shoehorn in." But Sale's art kept it interesting.
RIP.

(Possibly not the right moment but) I think I’m the only person who didn’t like The Long Halloween. Batman’s inner monologue is waaaay too prominent.
‘My father always told me’ -smashes Joker in the face- ‘that you need to be a surgeon‘ -roundhouse kick to Mad Hatter- ‘dealing with every threat in order‘ -punches Poison Ivy in the tits- ‘prioritising the most dangerous’ -suffocates Penguin in armpit-
I did like the suggestion that the Bat Signal gives him an erection though.

God, imagine you're going about your criminal business, poisoning Gotham's milk parlour say, and then all of a sudden Batman appears! You're getting beat up left and right but then in the corner of your eye you notice something, is... does he have a chub on??

I didn't mind the Loeb stories, and quite enjoyed them- the art definitely helped, but they certainly weren't as excellent as I was lead to believe before I bought them.

Far too young, what a keeper he was. The same cancer that took my dad last year, horrible.
