RIP Leonard Nimoy
I found out only a few hours ago that Nimoy has passed away. Let's gather some of our favorite moments to this legendary actor. One day I will get my hands on the first book of the series, "I am not Spock"....

I was aware of his health, but damn, It really feels like we lost something important.

Re: RIP Leonard Nimoy
At some point before he had to leave us, Leonard Nimoy has extended an offer to the world to be anyone's honorary grandfather.
I felt far more moved by this than by his leaving us. I feel so very inclined and motivated to accept such an offer, and to ensure that for all the good that Nimoy had been inspired to do for the world, (and there was certainly much of it.) I have been inspired to honor his memory through my own aspirations for the betterment of the lives of those around me; people who similarly wish all the best for those around them, and so on and so on.
While spending the rest of the evening listening to him narrate assorted interesting things, I will be reading about his own thoughts pertaining to the world and those who live in it, as well as what he believed in and how he fought for it. His Jewish upbringing and occasional bouts with antisemitism were a core element of his life, and there are still things that can be learned from him today from how he dealt with them.
He was on my own personal remarkably very short list of people who must never die. Although his various legacies will certainly never succumb to the ravages of time, I feel confident that he will live on through the people whose lives have been touched by him in some significant way.
I know mine has. LLAP, dearest friends.
I would like to end this post on a high note, however.

He was certainly a fan of the Hobbit. That's warming!

Oh, PLEASE can that already. We already have a thread for that meme and you spreading it here is borderline disrespectful because of how gratuitously off-topic it is.DaMan wrote:I'll never forget his white and gold shirt.
