This one is hard. I was brought down by Alan Rickman, David Bowie, and John Glenn most.
Bowie hit hard because he was all over the tabloids at mywork and most of this year was spent was an upfront cashier where the tabloids are kept. I really liked him a lot and I just kept having his passing right in my face.
But I loved Rickman too. He was an amazing actor and I adored so many of his movies. He was the type of actor that made me want to watch even romance movies just to see him. I know it's kinda hypocritical, but he wasn't present in the tabloids around here, and I was angry about that. I mean no I don't like tabloids but he deserved something. Bowie received eulogies full kind words in these magazines, interviews with people who loved him, collector's editions that were full of things about his life and his accomplishments, but Rickman was nowhere. And that didn't set right. And I know it's not something you want plastered all over but I wanted him to have those kind words, those magazines dedicated to things he did in life. Like Bowie did.
And Glenn? I haven't heard much of anything. His passing was hushed despite how much impact he's had in this world. Where did I learn of his passing? A comedy app I use! I follow someone who adores science and that's where I learned of this. Maybe it's too soon to be angry, but I'm still angry about it.
I apologize if this offends anyone, I really don't mean to.
