A once-weekly roundup,
usually on Sundays
Being old, death gets my attention, so I read the obituaries. This is a collection of recent obits for people whose work touched my life, because I want to say thanks, or maybe give ’em a final fuck you.
There’ll be a roundup like this occasionally, until I’m on the list myself.
