Ronald Raygun calling in and breaking down actually made me lose my shit and start crying.
It really sucks he passed away. Dude was going to end up big.
the suddenness of it is so shocking. still doesn't feel real.
for years, i've been listening to the majority report. it's just so steady. at my job, i would just pop in my headphones first thing in the morning. everyday. really crazy how long i've been listening to his voice tbh.
and then, i would listen to tmbs on saturday mornings when doing all my menial house keep. laundry, vacuuming, etc. since it's both in depth or light hearted, i'm thinking more about the content than the annoying house work. even yesterday, i listened to his last jacobin show. it seemed so normal, it hasn't really hit me yet
edit; i'm still salty that someone downvoted this last night lol https://hexbear.net/post/505
Same here, first public figure death I've ever cried over. It sucks
So many books, documentaries and individuals he exposed me to - I can't even count. It's tragic and I have no idea who can even fill the role he played.
And ugh, Nomiki is totally going to take his place on the Majority Report (which I guess will stop her gunning for Jamie everytime they're on together) and she's not in the same league as Michael in terms of... Anything...
I keep remembering him cracking Felix up on TMBS or the amount of time I spent laughing at Right Wing Mandela or so many little things like that and I just get sad all over again. Gone far, far too soon.
Fuck I can't believe Kissenger outlived yet another good person what the fuck.
Me too, I hadn't realized how much I loved the man, but I'm grieving more than I ever thought I would.
I don't think Michael would want you to keep going on like this.
