I've seen a lot of memes about his passing. This somehow hit me harder.

    I didn't realize how attached people were

    While not knowing him directly, they still have a profound influence on our memory and history. His Picard character channels the ideals many of us would like to fulfill for ourselves and humanity at large. A part of us has been cut off.

    There's a few people I don't know who I've attached to pretty hard over my life. They are all either very old or very dead. But they all made their mark in who I am as a person.

    Roberta Bondar

    Jane Goodall

    Patrick Stewart

    Ian McKellen

    David Attenborough

    Carl Sagan

    I think when Sir David Attenborough passes, I'm going to cry in a closet for a week like Moira Rose.

    His passing hit me like a ton of bricks. Brought me joy as a kid. Made me laugh with his crassness as a teen/young adult. Saw the goodness in him with his actions outside of media. Still hurts, just not as much with time.

    Fucking hell, this one is poignant and hurts a lot.

    Goddam, very well done. I did not expect to feel this emotional, lol.

    OP did you intend such a poignant message?

    Just to be clear, I did not make this. I don't want to take credit from whoever came up with this idea and followed through with creating it.

    But no, I genuinely didn't plan to make a poignant message on a shitposting community. If I knew it would be interpreted as something other than silly nonsense, I would have posted it somewhere else. But seeing the upvotes/downvotes on this, I decided to leave it alone. Anyone can feel free to crosspost this to a more appropriate community, if they want.

    You know I was scrolling along not a care in the world and I come across this and now my eyes are wet.

    Thanks man. You sucked the joy out of my soul.

    Maybe it because I hang out here amongst the trekkies most often but it really does seem like Sir Stewart's passing is hitting everyone especially hard

    As second in command, this meme's lower panel should take over as acting Facepalm Meme.

    Not that I disagree, just curious about the hierarchy structure.

    While I'm here, I'd like to submit the double Q facepalm.
