Apparently Zac Bertschy killed himself this morning. We were enemies and my war against him got me banned from ANN, but also set in motion him losing his Answerman column position.

I have complicated feelings right now. On the one hand, we deeply disliked one another and I think the internet is better with him gone. On the other hand, learning his personal details that likely led up to his suicide fills me with a lot of pity. He was an arsehole to the end, but he did suffer.

Rest in peace I guess.

Our friend Raide has apparently died, according to Twitter. Heavily involved in the production of Katawa Shoujo, he was both a writer and artist and served as artist for other visual novels done using the ren'py engine.

This one hurts a lot more than Zac Bertschy since Raide was cool. RIP my friend.

Thanos couldn't kill him but cancer could: Chadwick Boseman dead at 43.

All those jokes about Kentaro Miura dying before finishing Berserk became dark comedy as the decades went by, and unfortunately, it's now a reality.

Goodnight sweet prince. I wish you hadn't lost the passion to continue Berserk so we could see where the rabbit hole ended.

Yesterday was the worst day of my life. I was so scared and miserable I needed a night light to go to sleep, the first time since I was 12 years old.

I also (mildly) crashed my car to avoid getting killed outright on the trip down to see my dad in the ICU, as I drove across three states in a blizzard.

I can't describe how scared and devastated I am right now.

Sorry for your loss man. I lost my dad last spring. It's rough, but you'll get through it.

My condolences to you too Loki.

Historically, I don't recover from things like this. I never fully recovered from my failure at OCS and it's been 5 years already. The losses of some of my neighbours - who acted like extended family - still feel as painful years later.

This one, though, is something on another level of awful. So much of my life was built around my dad and trying to make life as comfortable for him as possible.

My rattled state basically divides into three parts

1. Fear for my present, sense of emptiness and loss of direction where nothing matters. All I can do is distract myself from the pain, it doesn't go away.
2. Fear for my future, I'm terrified of death now.
3. Most unsettling part is I'm afraid for my dad. I hope the afterlife exists, and that he went to Heaven, but I fear it doesn't exist, and that the ancient jews were right and we just return to dust and God (if he exists) forgets us.

Don't want any of this. It's horrible.
