          Just got out of rehab for "fine tuning" with his addiction problems. Having watched my parents go through a decade of addictions recovery programs, I think the level of shame and guilt that addicts go through is pretty overwhelming, and often made worse through counselling. As an alcoholic myself, 3.5 years sober, I know that suicide becomes an option when you're faced with leaving your favourite substance behind. But if suicide becomes an option, that should be a wake up call to find a different solution.

          Super sad to see him go out like that. He was awesome.

          I'll be watching Death to Smoochy for the first time (been meaning to for a while). Also highly recommend World's Greatest Dad for another really interesting dark comedy, directed by Bobcat Goldthwait.
          Larry David was once being heckled, long before any success. Heckler says "I'm taking my dog over to fuck your mother, weekly." Larry responds "I hate to tell you this, but your dog isn't liking it."

            Damn. Just damn.
            It certainly feels that way. But I'm distrustful of that feeling and am curious about evidence.

              This is just mind-numbing.

              He made so many people so happy...and yet he finds so little in his own life that he ends it.

              Heart-breaking.

              Hey just my sadness.

                Aww man what a terrible loss. My favorite actor and one of my favorite comedians all rolled into one. So talented and diverse. His resume seems endless, yet he still had more performances left in him. Good Will Hunting and Dead Poets Society are two of my favorite movies. And not coincidentally, two of Williams' best performances. RIP Robin

                  In rehab. It was not going well. Also a known depressive. Why was this man alone?
