Three, two, one...
Before I get into
scriabin and the tragic news, I understand that in less tragic news, Israel is at war with Iran. But we can all calm down, because Israel is a nuclear power, and Trump is gifting us with two beautiful flagpoles flanking either side of the White House. This is more of my terse, derisive gleanings, but I'm under the impression now that we don't deserve much else. Somewhat related, I think if you install dictators in other countries and create a humanitarian crisis that results in some mass exodus, you now have to house the refugees that are fleeing the country you destroyed.
scriabin has passed away. I was surprised, despite the fact that he had made it clear that he was bedridden a few months back. To what degree of his illness he suffered from, he did not specify, though. Nor did he disclose exactly what it was. I was still caught off guard because he was young and he had a fertile mind. Up until the end, he was writing fantastic prose and music. It just doesn't seem like something a terminally ill person could manage. And it's objectively sadder when someone younger dies. We've probably been party to some philosophical humming and hawing over whether it's more of a loss if someone younger with potential dies or if someone older with knowledge dies, but anyone that leans towards the geriatric is undoubtedly geriatric and all the more bitter for it. They would wax some maxim like "youth is wasted on the youth" with a straight face. They conveniently forget that no one is employing grandpa's priceless wisdom because grandpa has a full diaper and he believes in ghosts.
I'm just... mildy mad, not just because it feels like a waste, but because this person was also thoughtful and kindhearted. These are priceless characteristics to me. They're the only effective defense against the majority of people in this world that are quick to judge and condemn. I'll have to mention Daryl Davis again, of course, my heterosexual husband. This essence that is now gone is what truly makes a death a bitter one, not whether they're young or old (well, if they're young AND loving towards others, it's a bit worse). I often write about this but it's not with any sentiment. Love is the ultimate act of defiance.
Goodbye
scriabin
I love you.
