The world has lost a true visionary.
He was a fun part of the internet in the 2000s
If you know, you know
Somehow not a fever dream or edit.
A really great person on so many levels. I like to believe that he had a good life.
Incredibly happy I got season 3 of Twin Peaks.
You were a gem, David.
This right here! I only saw Twin Peaks for the first time in 2010 or so, and was always hoping somehow to get more. It had so much more potential, and the controversy surrounding the creators hands being forced to reveal the killer early on really changed the intended course afaik. The fact that Lynch came back in as director for season 3 made it so exciting to anticipate and the finished product is some of the best, most memorable Twin Peaks i feel blessed to have seen. What an amazing series.
It was also sad to see everyone aging, and to have lost Pete still hurts to think about… Not to mention Major Briggs and the Log Lady 💔 that was such a beautiful and strange world and part of me will always long for that place.
He had emphysema… they didn’t specifically connect it, but I would be shocked if the fires had no effect on his health. Ash causing strokes and heart failure are some of the specific things they warn about in the air quality warnings. There’s still ash everywhere because it hasn’t rained and they don’t expect it to for at least another week, probably longer. So every time a car goes by in the street it’s kicking up ash that people are breathing in.
In the 2020 Oregon fires, everything was coated in ash even though we were 20-30 miles away. I used a respirator while working outside and it didn’t take long for the filters to get all sooty. You’d come outside in the morning and your car would be covered in it as if we’d had fresh snowfall. I have no doubt that it caused problems for someone with emphysema.
Eraserhead is killer. It should be required viewing in schools.
This man truly enjoyed a good cup of coffee.
Damn fine cup of coffee.
And HOT!
This hit hard.
What the hell, this one caught me off guard. He was another one I thought would live forever.
He smoked for nearly 70 years straight, and had emphysema so bad he couldn’t leave his house, and had to be on constant oxygen.
He’s been on death’s door for a few years now.
I’m incredibly thankful that he put his mark on the world.
I’ve always been vaguely bewildered by people getting upset at the deaths of people they’d never met and didn’t know. Now I know better. I’m just glad our time on this planet coincided and I got to experience the work of a unique mind.
RIP legend. Lynch was an artist almost beyond comparison.
Nooooo
Damn this one is a bummer. I always found his work interesting at the very least.
That jump scare in Mulholland Drive gets me every time still.
Dang
May he have beautiful blue skies and golden sunshine, all along the way.
