RIP Sir Patrick Stewart (1940-2026).
Someone needs to put Shatner and Takei into a protective bubble until this awful week is over.
(Well, probably two separate bubbles)

This timeline has been cooked for way too long, where's a tachyon anomaly when we need one

Stewart played one of Rome's greatest and most arrogant tyrants. A role he performed well in I, Claudius. Surely this is why he died first, Tiberius had his revenge.
Then again, William Shanter played an arrogant actor turned murderer in an episode of Columbo. But it wasn't a very good episode so maybe thats why he goes unpunished for it?
replies:
Just proves to me that Bill Shatner is sucking the life force out of all his co stars to live longer. Very on brand for him.

Ya but he is cheating by living in the Nexus.
Way too soon.
replies:
Not only surprising that Kirk outlived Picard, but Shatner is still performing!
He did riot fest and a heavy metal show.
Then he goes on tour starting today with short runs all the way to February of next year.

I'm still trying to figure out what I'm doing in this photo while I'm here looking at it..
Kirk said he'd die alone.
Last person alive perhaps? AI chooses him to live
Don't fucking tell me THIS is how I'm finding out that Sir Patrick Stewart is dead...

Outlived the Next Generation, go figure.
Not that I would ever wish any ill on Stewart. Nice guy, but Shatner's Kirk is way more enjoyable as a a captain than Cap'n Crunch there.
Edit: I kind of expected this. People seem to be conflating Mr Stewart, whom I do mention I think was a nice guy, with the character he played, which I think was not very interesting, but hey.
However, people are right in pointing out that the comment was ill timed.
