My dad called me about this, he's been in KL for work and saw it on the local news before I did. Two Olympics for Malaysia, 1964 and 1968, on a bike. Never heard of him before today but that's on me, not him.

Followed the Sambo case out of curiosity since it was all over the news a few years back, this lawyer was the one who kept pushing it into the open. Someone close to him said it plain: he'd been on dialysis for years before this. Didn't know the guy, but you don't forget a case like that.
For Frank Goode · 6d ago
Never heard of Frank Goode until an Aussie rules YouTube deep dive a few years back, some old footage of him full-forward for North Melbourne in 66. 49 goals that season. Strange to feel something for a stranger from the other side of the world but there it is.

My brother called me about this, said it was all over the gym group chats back home. Thirty three. Collapsed mid competition. I don't follow bodybuilding close but that stopped me in my tracks.

"Není smyslem života ulovit bílou velrybu, ale lovit." Found that line years ago in a translation and never forgot it. 93.
For Colette Sénami Agossou Houeto · 21d ago
Wait, she just died? I was literally reading about L'aube sur les cactus last week after it came up in a piece on African poetry. 87 years old. Didn't know much about Benin politics but that collection stuck with me.

39. That's far too young to lose a coach who gave that much to her players. Praying for her family right now.
For Bamanga Tukur · 13 Sept 2026
Bamanga Tukur reshaped Nigeria's maritime infrastructure in the 1970s and carried that same drive for modernisation through every role. A career of consequence.
For Samuel Monroe Jr. · 30 Aug 2026
Menace II Society changed how I saw film. Samuel Monroe Jr. was part of that moment. Rest easy.
For Janie Bradford · 25 Aug 2026
My mother played those records every Saturday morning. Didn't know til I was older that Janie Bradford wrote half of them. Rest well.

Same book got me through a layover in Chicago once, strange how that happens

Never knew he raced before he coached. Good to hear it plain like that.
