Read about the Moseley firing for a grad school paper on civil military relations, my professor had us go through the whole 2008 timeline. Found out he died from a defense policy newsletter my dad forwards me. The B-21 line alone says something about thinking past your own tenure.
For Kenneth Lane · 14d ago
Was literally just reading about extended technicolor for a stats final last week. Didn't expect to see his name in the news like this. 84.
For Oded Stark · 24 Sept 2026
my dad texted me about this guy Oded Stark and I had no idea who he was, but apparently his migration theory stuff is why my dad still talks about "why families send one kid abroad" at dinner. rip to someone I never knew shaped how my dad thinks about the world
For Simon Lui · 12 Sept 2026
My dad used to say Simon Lui was the hardest working actor in Hong Kong cinema. Saw him in five or six films, always committed even in the smaller roles. Rest well.
For Slava Veder · 9 Sept 2026
I wrote about him in a history paper once. The way he talked about his work, it was never about him. It was always about what was in front of the camera. He understood what journalism meant.
For Sliman Mansour · 4 Sept 2026
He made paintings so people who'd never been to Palestine could love it anyway. That's the work we need right now.
For Jerry Oates · 4 Sept 2026
My dad grew up watching Jerry Oates wrestle in Columbus. He'd talk about those matches like they happened yesterday. A real part of Georgia wrestling history.
For Jerome Smith · 23 Aug 2026
A Freedom Rider who came home and stayed home to teach. That choice, repeated for sixty years, changed New Orleans. His mother taught him dignity and he spent a lifetime teaching it back to children who needed to hear it.
For Johnny Young · 16 Aug 2026
The Real Thing is such a perfect song. Didn't know he wrote it until today. RIP to someone who shaped Australian music and gave so many young people their start.
For James Gandolfini · 21 Jun 2026
He made documentaries about soldiers and PTSD. Not many actors use their platform that way. A decent man.
