I just got TW on gab.com. Not sure how long that will last - they got notice of host pulling out as of Monday.

Neonrevolt just recently made a nest over there too. I just looked and it did seem to have content. Wonder if he’s being hassled there too.

Posting blind (and Sllllloooooooowww):

I’m putting this in my “Strange/ Early Death” file pending confirmation:

Foot crawler on FOX Maria Bartiromo’ Sunday Morning Futures:

“Helicopter belonging to Leicester City Football Club Owner Vichai Srivaddhanaprabha crashes in a ball of flames in Clubs’s parking lot after game Saturday, British media report…officials have not confirmed whether Vichai was on board…Vichai, owner of Thailand’s King Power Duty Free Shops, bought the Leicester Soccer Club in 2010…team won the English Premier League in 2016, beating odds of 5,000-1”

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vichai_Srivaddhanaprabha

In May 2017, he bought his second football club, OH Leuven in Belgium.
Personal life
Srivaddhanaprabha was born into a Thai Chinese family. He is married to Aimon Srivaddhanaprabha, with whom he has four children: Voramas, Apichet, Aroonroong, and Aiyawatt. In 2012, the King of Thailand Bhumibol Adulyadej bestowed the family new surname of Srivaddhanaprabha. The name means ‘light of progressive glory’ in the Thai language. He was awarded an honorary doctorate as a Doctor of Law by the University of Leicester in 2016.

Helicopter accident
Main article: 2018 Leicester City F.C. helicopter crash
On 27 October 2018, Srivaddhanaprabha’s AgustaWestland AW169 helicopter crashed outside the King Power Stadium shortly after taking off from the pitch. Eyewitnesses described seeing the helicopter spinning before crashing and creating a fireball. The occupants of the helicopter are unknown, although the BBC reported that Srivaddhanaprabha was on board.

Reportedly aboard, [but enough wiggle words in it to still be unconfirmed. Pix of crash site]

I think that the whole gab site is going to be out of business. The host provider is booting gab-because of the shooter posting anti-Semitic stuff.

Takes effect Monday, gab said they are working on it, but it may be weeks before they have a solution.

This may have been posted, but I’m pretty far behind.

“Gab.com is under attack. We have been systematically no-platformed by App Stores, multiple hosting providers, and several payment processors. We have been smeared by the mainstream media for defending free expression and individual liberty for all people and for working with law enforcement to ensure that justice is served for the horrible atrocity committed in Pittsburgh. Gab will continue to fight for the fundamental human right to speak freely.

As we transition to a new hosting provider Gab will be inaccessible for a period of time. We are working around the clock to get Gab.com back online. Thank you and remember to speak freely.”
