@KatTimpf @guypbenson 🙏

My seemingly healthy, strong father Daniel “Dad Timpf” Timpf died very unexpectedly on the evening of May 7 at just 69 years old.   It does not seem like enough to simply call him my father, because he was so much more than that. He was my rock, my hero and my best friend. He was loyal, funny, kind, selfless, hard-working, and so devoted to his children that it was impossible to be near him and not find yourself inspired. He was a writer, a painter, a sailor, and somehow knowledgeable on every subject from world history to literature to accounting. He was the most dependable person anyone has ever met. I always felt like, as long as I had his phone number, there was not a problem I could not solve. I needed him here with me; I am not okay, and I am far from the only person who feels this.   The birth of my son in February 2025, his first grandchild, was supposed to be a happy new beginning for our family. A family that had been already once devastated by an untimely loss: the loss of my mother Anne Marie to a rare disease in 2014 just a matter of weeks after her diagnosis.   The joy of my son’s birth was, of course, complicated by my also very unexpected breast cancer diagnosis just a matter of hours before going into labor with him. During this time, my dad did what he did best, which was to save the day. As soon as he heard about my diagnosis, he simply got into the car and started driving to New York -- making it through the tunnel just as my  son was born…on the day that happened to be his own birthday, as well.   In the tumultuous time of a simultaneous new cancer diagnosis and new baby, my dad was the sole reason for our stability, rushing in to help care for our son, and returning to do so again for my double mastectomy, reconstructive surgery, and any time that we ever needed him. It was an awful, awful year… but I found so much joy and hope throughout it by watching the beauty of a very special relationship form between my son and my father. This horrible thing that was happening was creating such a very special bond between the two of them -- almost making the terrible thing worth it -- and I was so excited to see how that bond would grow.   The bond was of top priority for my father, who visited from Michigan often. I saw him last on the Monday before he died, and my son was so proud to help his grandfather push his suitcase down to the car as he left. The goodbyes were quick. Why wouldn’t they be? We would all see each other again at the beginning of June, when we would all head to Texas for my shows and to see my grandpa. We wanted to make sure that my son could spend as much time as he could with his great-grandfather. He is, after all, 93.   I was certainly not over the trauma of my cancer or having to amputate the breasts I so badly wanted to feed my son with, but the one thing I could always count on to get me through my worst moments was seeing my son’s and my father’s faces light up when they saw each other, be it during the visits or our routine morning and bedtime FaceTime calls.   That is, at least, until I had to hear over the phone from a doctor I had never met in an emergency room in the same town up north that I’d previously announced to my father that I was pregnant that my dad was dead; I would never see him again, and neither would my son. It would turn out that last year was not the hard one, after all. Rather, it was the one I would now do anything to relive. I would amputate my breasts every year just to be able to speak with him one more time, even for five minutes.   I am currently living an unimaginable horror. For many people, this is a tragic story. For me, it’s my life. I do not know how I will recover from it. I only know that I have to for the sake of what is left of my family.

@PaulPabst Once you turn 40 a lot changes as you start the back 9

Topic off air...at what age do you become "Middle Aged"? I'm going 43. Far enought from your 30's. -Family/friends question why you're not married. -Starting to get sore for no reason. -A good-night's sleep is attractive over a night out. What's your number and why?

@TomiLahren @lalovestrump @nithyavraman Also full of shit is @NathanHochmanDA who campaigned on protecting animals and could prosecute these felonies but is absent on this. Someone should ask him…..

@nithyavraman You are so full of shit! You have done absolutely nothing for the dogs being abused and neglected on Skid Row! Stop looking for a come up now.

Imagine spending six months in a cage with no access to the outside… That might be the reality for hundreds of dogs in LA shelters if the cuts in Bass’s proposed 2026 budget go through. Let me explain:

@jonathanhatami Blame and Failure at every level. Some need to step up and help these poor animals asap.

Animal abuse is the infliction of suffering or harm on innocent animals through intentional abuse or neglect, such as starvation, abandonment, cruel confinement, or physical violence. It is a crime. Protecting innocent animals is a matter of public safety because animals are dependent, just like children, and these incidents are rarely isolated. There is also a direct correlation between animal abuse and interpersonal violence. Animal abusers are 5x more likely to commit violent crimes against humans. Animal abuse is also present in approx 88% of homes where child physical abuse is occurring. A strong law enforcement response and an even stronger subsequent prosecution serves innocent animals, the broader community at large and justice in general. Animals cannot testify. It is up to us to fight for them. Incidents of animal abuse in LA County and LA City have gone unchecked for far too long. Report animal abuse to local LE immediately. Pressure City and County officials to prosecute these cases. Pressure our legislature and local officials to create & impose tougher laws and sentences against animal abusers. Adopt, Don’t shop. Document if you see abuse & take photos. Help animals in need if you can. We all need to do our part.

@SusanDReynolds @HollyJMitchell Where is @NathanHochmanDA ?

Where the hell are you @HollyJMitchell — too afraid to help these dogs in your district? Well guess what? That’s what you signed up for!

@SUFPFoundation @MayorOfLA Neither does @NathanHochmanDA

We have been doing everything in our power to end the suffering since August 2023. Staycee Dains - a pathetic puppet of the corrupt and broken shelter system - lied to our faces. "No Kill LA" LAAS doesn't take the lives of animals serious at all and neither does @MayorOfLA.

@PodcastSTS @kaceymontoya Add @NathanHochmanDA to the do nothing list. @latimes

🚨 LA Vet Records Show Dogs & Cats Given Drugs on Skid Row 🚨 Former KTLA reporter @kaceymontoya says she’s knows vet records exist indicating animals are being given drugs on Skid Row. She adds that nothing is being done to fix the crisis—because homelessness industry has become big business. So what is really going on in Los Angeles—and why aren’t you doing your jobs @MayorOfLA @YsabelJuradoLA? 👉 PLEASE SHARE FULL EPISODE TO SHOW THE WORLD: youtube.com/live/DEief2Ftl… cc: @spencerpratt @joey_tuccio @RickCarusoLA #SkidRow #AnimalRescue #Dogs #Cats #AnimalAbuse #LA

@TheGussReport @MayorOfLA @KarenBassLA @nithyavraman @YsabelJuradoLA @spencerpratt @joey_tuccio This is also on @NathanHochmanDA who campaigned on protecting animals but is not prosecuting these felonies. @latimes

This is YOUR problem, @MayorOfLA! @KarenBassLA STUCK WITH JACKIE HAMILTON, and are BOTH responsible for the TORTURE they tolerate to this day. And torture of which @nithyavraman and @YsabelJuradoLA ignored. @spencerpratt @joey_tuccio

@remzelk1 @joey_tuccio @MayorOfLA @LACountyBOS @LACity Ad @NathanHochmanDA to this list.

@joey_tuccio Abhorrent Animal Abuse In LA & LA County ! @MayorOfLA @LACountyBOS @LACity Council DO NOT CARE ! VOTE THEM OUT !

This is a video highlighting animal abuse and neglect in Los Angeles. It also highlights how much the city has failed the homeless. Not just in Skid Row but in areas like Watts and Compton. Everybody and every dog is fighting to survive and, sadly, some do not make it.

@jamesklug @NathanHochmanDA should actually prosecute these felonies as he campaigned on. @latimes

VIEWER DISCRETION ADVISED: The DARKEST Scandal In Los Angeles That Leadership Is Ignoring PLEASE SHARE. Link below 👇

@joey_tuccio Why is @NathanHochmanDA not doing his job and protecting animals? Oh right, another empty campaign promise. The press should ask him. @latimes

So many LA officials are fucked once this video comes out tomorrow.

@Julio_Rosas11 @jamesklug @joey_tuccio @SWOTNonprofit Why does @NathanHochmanDA not prosecute these felonies and why does he no longer care about protecting animals? Maybe the press should ask him. @latimes

Here is a preview of what I and @jamesklug saw as @joey_tuccio and @SWOTNonprofit rescued dogs in Los Angeles. While Skid Row has gotten a lot of attention recently, the dog abuse and neglect is all over LA County and local leaders are allowing it. Full video below:

@Kiradavis @lalovestrump @nithyavraman Focus on why @NathanHochmanDA is not prosecuting these felonies. A year ago he was all about protecting the animals. What changed?

Los Angeles would be insane to elect this dog-hating Karen Basuuuuura 2.0. She thinks it's fine for the Skid Row homeless to abuse their dogs and fine for homeless encampments to be near schools (it's 'whatever', right Nithya?) @nithyavraman is not fit for any public service. Not even dog catcher. Especially not dog catcher.

@NathanHochmanDA So why not protect animals in 2026 @NathanHochmanDA

April is Animal Cruelty Prevention Month and the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office stands with all victims—including those on four legs. Research shows that nearly 10 million animals die from abuse or cruelty every year in the United States. Animal cruelty is criminal and reprehensible, and it will not be tolerated. We have specialized prosecutors dedicated to enforcing animal cruelty laws, holding criminal abusers accountable, and seeking justice for animal victims of abuse and neglect. We urge the public to document and report suspected animal abuse to local law enforcement, your local animal control agency or the Los Angeles County Department of Animal Care and Control @LACOAnimals at (562) 940-6898 (South County) or (661) 940-4191 (North County). #Animals #AnimalAbuse #AnimalCruelty #Prevention #LACounty #LADA #LADAOffice #NathanHochman #DAHochman #DistrictAttorney #DistrictAttorneyNathanHochman

@joey_tuccio @HollyJMitchell Why is @NathanHochmanDA choosing to not prosecute these felonies?

THIS IS SO UNFAIR. This dog's life is despair and sadness. @HollyJMitchell WAKE THE HELL UP AND CLEAN UP YOUR DISTRICT.

@alannarizzo Need to ask @NathanHochmanDA why his office has no interest in prosecuting.

I am not saying it’s a party issue at all, but I can attest that the current administration in LA does NOT care about the well being of animals on skid row, or in LA city & county, in general. I have friends in rescue, on both side of the political aisle, and this is a massive problem.

@WallStreetApes Need to ask @NathanHochmanDA why his office is not interested in prosecuting.

A nonprofit that helps abused dogs announces they are filing lawsuits against Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass, LA Animal Services, the City of Los Angeles and the LAPD They have submitted consistent evidence of “horrific” dog abuse on Skid Row She says Democrats “They do not care” “I've spoken in front of city council, I've offered solutions, tried to help the very, very best I can. Yeah. And they don't care. They have not responded to any solution that I've offered — I got horrific videos of dogs in cages on Skid Row, and it has been my mission for the last three years to try to get dogs who are being abused on Skid Row removed. And they will not remove them. They will not enforce the law. Every single one of those people and every single one of those agencies refuses to remove the dogs” California has both animal cruelty and neglect statutes the people on skid row are breaking not because the homeless are a protected class, no punishments ever gone to them Democrats “Do not care” about this animal cruelty

@airlinevideos @FedEx FedEx has been really bad for sometime now. They are also really expensive as well. If I’m shipping for a live event I always leave an extra day now. It’s that bad.

Completely unacceptable from @FedEx. A signature-required COMPUTER gets “attempted” at a random side gate no one uses—while our front office is OPEN. No real effort, no delivery. Call customer service? “System is down”—no help, no answers. And after 35+ years of buying video gear from @bhphoto, it’s beyond frustrating they continue to allow this level of service. This isn’t a one-off—this is a pattern. It’s 2026. Customers deserve better.

@moonystappen It feels like an exhibition now. They do have the entire month of April now to try to improve it.

so uh.. is anyone else rapidly losing interest in f1 or is it just me?

@airlinevideos Now I can’t unsee it!

Plane Jockey Kevin says it’s official… every United Airlines Airbus A321neo looks like Kermit the Frog 🐸 From the cockpit windows to the nose cone, it’s full-on Muppet energy! Do you see it too, or is Kevin the only one spotting Kermit? 👀🤣
