Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.

Rules:

-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --

-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --

-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --

-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today/ . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --

-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--

-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--

-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --

-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

Fell from a 3rd floor balcony, possibly under the influence of something. Police were called to the hotel about a man there being drunk or on drugs and behaving aggressively.

Apparently he had some troubles with alcohol at some point(s) in his life and has spoken out about it.

That’s a terrible way to go. I guess all ways to go are terrible because you’re fucking dying but still, that really sucks.

31 is so young.

Worst part of it is probably his family learning of his death through social media.

Liam Payne, One Direction Member, Dead at 31

What a shame, he was a young man

confirmed to Rolling Stone that the British singer died after falling from the third floor of CasaSur Palmero Hotel in Buenos Aires, Argentina. A cause of death has not yet been confirmed.

What a rotten way to die

do you have a single fact to back that up?

never heard of him.. sounds like he wasn't a very happy person.. too bad

[–] [email protected] 16 points 2 months ago (2 children)

Pretty sure he wasn't a good person tbh. I think there were some grooming allegations and other stuff.

ew... of course. its not even surprising to hear that about any celebrity anymore

It appears he also trashed the hotel room he was staying in, probably doing drugs and drinking a lot. It seems like he hired some hookers and refused to pay the women. But idk, nothing to confirm that yet, only some gossip I heard from some friends.

Sorry to be flippant, but was he trying to one up Trevor Moore?

I’ve just been listening to One Direction songs on repeat.
