I can't think of any sentence in the English language more depressing than "Robin Williams dead of suicide"

That a man seemingly that intuitive and endearing can be trapped in such a dark place. It really is fucking depressing. How misplaced is the hope that the rest of us hold on to?

World's Greatest Dad's is one of the most brilliant (yeah, I said it) dark comedies of ALL TIME. If you have not seen it, you need to get on this ish. RIP.

listening to Stacks in the Bon Iver thread makes for a fitting melody for this moment.

I'm thinking I'll play this now, it seems like another fitting funeral song.
