@KatTimpf Kat, my wife and I offer our deepest sympathy for this painful loss. We are huge fans, and while we cannot imagine your pain, we are holding you and your family in our prayers.

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.

@AntiLeftMemes Dr Demento. Dr Kevorkian. Dr Dre.

Name a doctor you trust more than Dr. Jill Biden

@KamalaHarris You’re such a clueless moron. Ironic that you, of all people, have your panties in a wad over elections. You won ZERO primaries en route to winning ZERO presidential elections. But keep running your mouth about things of which you are completely ignorant.

Last month in Virginia, the people made their voices heard at the ballot box and voted for new Congressional maps. Today, the Virginia Supreme Court ignored the will of the people and overturned those democratically chosen maps. This ruling gives a boost to Donald Trump's effort to rig the 2026 elections and the Republicans' long game to attack voting rights. We are rightfully outraged, but we will not give up. We must continue our fight to restore the power of the people.

@its_The_Dr 🤮 But bring it. Vance/Rubio or Rubio/Vance would eat their lunch.

The left call this the Dream Team, what do you call this?

@nspektorapps #meh. The "upgrade" is a #moneygrab. The layout is atrocious - way too much wasted space. #overPriced #overRated #justSayNo

3.0.3 is waiting for review – new features (just the beginning!), improvements and bug fixes on the way! 🚀 #calendar366 #ios #macos #productivity

@QB1Tattoo Yo, @diegopavia02, how'd you do in the NFL draft? I hear McDonalds is hiring. Only job requirement is that you can see over the counter. Maybe get a stool.

No way ESPN actually put this out 👀😂

@ericswalwell Good riddance to a sexual predator.

@RubenGallego What did you know and when did you know it about @ericswalwell's sexual assaults? You could not have been as close to him as you are and not know. You are a liar if you say anything else. #notMySenator

@GoodmanHoops @daily_hoosier Thanks, #CaptainObvious

Huge next 24-48 hours for Darian DeVries and Indiana. Hoosiers went for mid-major transfers a year ago. Now focused mostly on high-major proven guys. Learned from their mistakes. Darren Harris finished visit, now have Markus Burton & Aiden Sherrell on campus, source told @TheFieldOf68.

@dvdcoyote @ericswalwell Congrats, man. You just won the internet.

I am suspending my campaign for Governor. To my family, staff, friends, and supporters, I am deeply sorry for mistakes in judgment I’ve made in my past. I will fight the serious, false allegations that have been made — but that’s my fight, not a campaign’s.

@ericswalwell Suspending your campaign over what you call false allegations? Interesting..

@ericswalwell @GriffJenkins Good first step. Now resign from Congress or face expulsion.

@ericswalwell Way to go, #CaptainObvious. Such a slimy loser. #goodRiddance. Now, resign from congress and get some mental health counseling.

@SenRubenGallego You are such a slimy chameleon. Suddenly you're calling out your long time friend, @ericswalwell. You're both amoral leftist, and, frankly, you deserve each other. Unfortunately, Arizona does not deserve you.

@JBPritzker You're a moron. You have plenty of your own crap to fix. Illinois is far worse off because of you and your extremely liberal agenda. Stay in your lane, fix your own state and lose some weight.

The 25th Amendment needs to be invoked before it's too late.

@mchooyah @senblumenthal is most definitely retarded. Tried to steal valor for (not) having served in VietNam. #lowLifeLiberal

Are you retarded?
