Rip. He was in a lot of movies and tv shows, but I always think of him and the short lived Wizards & Warriors.

:( And still relatively young. RIP
His VA was definitely half the reason I liked Atton's chr. so much. Had just the right snarkiness etc.

Against stupidity we have no defense. Neither protests nor force can touch it. Reasoning is of no use. Facts that contradict personal prejudices can simply be disbelieved - indeed, the fool can counter by criticizing them, and if they are undeniable, they can just be pushed aside as trivial exceptions. So the fool, as distinct from the scoundrel, is completely self-satisfied. In fact, they can easily become dangerous, as it does not take much to make them aggressive. For that reason, greater caution is called for than with a malicious one. Never again will we try to persuade the stupid person with reasons, for it is senseless and dangerous.

I imagine death is a better option than spending time with JD.

US (lapsed) Catholic here, you're not wrong but the caveat is we got a lot of Protestant converts who only flopped to Catholicism (or Orthodox) because it lets them be more unhinged and larp as crusaders.

David Souter, former U.S. Supreme Court Justice. He was nominated to the court by Bush Sr., but was immediately a moderate that became known for voting more and more with the left wing side of the Court as time went on, before deciding to retire early during Obama's term. He was replaced by Sonia Sotomayer. From an interview in 2012:

"I don't believe there is any problem in American politics or American public life which is more significant today that the pervasive civic ignorance of the Constitution of the United States and the structure of government. Some of the aspects of current American government that people on both sides find frustrating are in part a function of the inability of people to understand how government can and should function. [...] What I worry about is that when problems are not addressed, people will not know who is responsible. And when the problems get bad enough, some one person will come forward and say, 'Give me total power and I will solve this problem.' That is how the Roman republic fell."

He was my favorite Supreme Court Justice. RIP.

People will rightfully mention their favourite comics by Peter David, but the thing about him is that he wrote comics on a monthly basis for over 40 years at a level of quality that even other acclaimed writers can only dream of.

Just for Marvel he wrote over 800 comics, quite a few of which were all time classics, and almost all of them were quality, well done comics. Plenty of rightly acclaimed writers struggle to put out consistently good scripts for even two or three years. He did it from the 80s until he passed away.

That he had to die in medical debt is a disgrace and Marvel/Disney can go and
