wow, I just read this. I only knew him from The Mandalorian... what a shame.

I didn't even know he was in The Mandalorian. Don't have Disney. Glad he was still getting work.

Richard Lewis, comedian and ‘Curb Your Enthusiasm’ star, dead at 76 | CNN

Quote

Comedian and actor Richard Lewis, whose self-deprecating humor and acerbic wit in shows like “Curb Your Enthusiasm” and “Anything but Love” entertained audiences for decades, has died, according to his publicist Jeff Abraham. He was 76.

Abraham said in an email to CNN that the entertainer passed away “peacefully” at his home in Los Angeles on Tuesday night after having a heart attack.

In April of 2023, Richard revealed that he had been living with Parkinson’s disease.

Brian Mulroney, one of Canada's most consequential prime ministers, is dead at 84 | CBC News

Quote

Baie-Comeau, Quebec-born leader negotiated U.S. free trade deal, introduced GST

Brian Mulroney — who, as Canada's 18th prime minister, steered the country through a tumultuous period in national and world affairs — has died. He was 84.

Oh right, he introduced the Grab-and-Steal Tax (to go along with the Pretty Stupid Tax in most provinces), which led to this bit of doggerel still lodged in my mind:

Spoiler

"We're tiny, we're tooney, we haven't got a loonie
Since Brian, Mulroney, invented GST!"

(yes, for those who don't know, Mulroney rhymes with loonie (slang for the Canadian dollar coin))
