RIP James Earl Jones (vent journal)
a year ago
I found out yesterday that, sadly, James Earl Jones has passed away. For many Star Wars fan, they will remember him as Darth Vader. For many of us in the furry fandom, we will remember him as Mufasa from The Lion King.
When I found out the news last night, my emotions and feelings were a mix of anger, pain, sadness, and frustration.
This summer has already been hard on me with dealing with my anxiety spiraling out of control, as well as all of us with dealing with Dragoneer's passing (which honestly, I'm still getting over right now). But this just feels like the Grim Reaper cruelly flipping us off.
I cannot stress it enough when I say that I hate this decade. I understand and realize that death is inevitable and unavoidable, but I feel like from the moment this decade started, it has been nothing but unending pain, death, misery, and suffering. It feels like the pain never ends. We have lost a long-ass list of so many good people this decade so far. And we're only halfway through.
Forgive me if this journal is rather very negative, but I just don't know how many more times I, or anyone else, can stare death in the face before we finally lose hope.
Anyway, with this sad turn of events, I think that my next art piece will pay tribute to James Earl Jones. I don't know what it will be though. It may either be Logan transforming into a lion or involve characters from the Lion King. I don't know. But I will be paying my respects to him.
Rest in peace, James Earl Jones
