i was obsessed with Rush before, and after, being obsessed with NIN.
Keep in mind, too, that he wrote the lyrics.
fucksake. This one REALLY hurts, for me.

Hopefully they can at least do a tribute show to Neil at some point, Danny Carrey or Mike Portnoy would definitely be my choices to honor his work.

Awww... from the behind the scenes stuff I watched on the DVDs he seemed like not a bad guy.
(never did much like the character though...)
Just tickles my balls!

As a former journalist and someone who is deeply terrified of the attack on journalism today, this one hurts.

Man I don't remotely care about Basketball, but even I realize that Kobe dying is like if Michael Jordan had died in the 90s.

Helicopters ... Ugh. Fuck helicopters.

RIP Kobe. Great player. Not a good way to go out.

Hope to all that is pure in the universe it's not true. I mean, 5 people were onboard total.
Reports that the other 4 onboard were his daughters. No fucking way.
Bite me
Reports on Twitter that Rick Fox was on board.
FATUM NOS IUNGET
Yeah saw that too...man this is nuts.

It’s too easy for things to go wrong with helicopters. I’m not a basketball person either but everyone knows who he is. So tragic.

Edit: Just confirmed on MSNBC that GiGi was in fact on the helicopter.
Another of GiGi’s teammates and a parent was also on the helicopter. Plus the pilot.

Rest In Peace. So very sad to hear about.
Meanwhile, Kobe hasn’t been dead for 24 hours and Morrissey has managed to make himself look like an idiot about the incident - https://www.morrissey-solo.com/threa...6-2020.145544/

I'm so bummed. I'm a lifelong Dallas Mavericks fan (so glad they decided to retire number 24) so I grew up watching Dirk vs Kobe. Dirk was obviously my favorite player, but Kobe was THE superstar of the league in the 00s. He embodied the NBA, and what it means to be a competitor. He does leave behind a very complicated legacy, but him and his daughters deaths has left me shocked, even almost 24 hours later. I stayed up so late just to watch his final game. I wanted him to shoot the ball every time he touched it. He put up 60 that game in true Kobe fashion. It's sad to think he won't even get to give his Hall of Fame speech which I know would have been epic. Such a tragic situation.
