Dammit the world gets darker every time a beautiful light goes out. These men, David Bowie, Chris Cornell... Too many to name. That's the worst thing about getting older - I can deal with my body falling apart little by little, But people you love die, and then another, and another and it's a f ucked up world when the people who really know you deeply and love you are gone.

It's a very painful week for Star Trek fans, though we have so much to be grateful for when it comes to these two amazing actors.
