    He was a tyrant and a menace to Rome. Good ridden to him.

    Patrick Stewart played legendary Roman tyrant Sejanus in the mini-series I, Claudius. You should watch it.

    This sounds stupid but I’ve been crying since I found out. He has inspired me so much in my life

    I’m watching Generations right now. I know, I know. But Walter and Patrick are both here okay?

    I am deeply saddened to hear the news. I, like many others, was a major fan of TNG series. I rewatch it yearly, and will continue to do so. Picards mannerisms, heroism, positive values, and dedication to do what’s right has been a huge influence and driving force in my life. I will continue to honor the traits this man’s character personifies as long as I live.

    God speed Sir Patrick Stewart. Thank you for all that you have done.

      Picard was (and still is) a major influence on my moral compass. It wouldn’t be that way, if Patrick Stewart did not act/play him so well. RIP.

    Yesterday, but yeah.

    Even though he was 86 and suffering, it still hits pretty hard. He was the best.

      I’m watching Generations. Want to see Chekov too. Also, the themes seem appopriate right now.

      “Someone once told me that time was a predator that stalked us all our lives. But I rather believe that time is a companion who goes with us on the journey, and reminds us to cherish every moment because they’ll never come again. What we leave behind is not as important as how we lived. After all, Number One, we’re only mortal.”

      I just watched The Inner Light last night. Might have been as he was passing. Somehow that’s comforting.

      Inner light is of course so glorious, but I’m currently watching The Royale.

      Rest well, Captain.

        Fuck me, the royale. I just watched it last week. Just good, fun TOS style scholk.

        I just watched starship mine, a personal favorite Picard episode. He gets to play at being a dashing spy, saving the ship from terrorists on his own. He did the somber warrior so well.

      I just got back from a small beach vacation; first in years. Exhausted from driving, I ate some dinner, threw on Picard (S2E07 Monsters) and passed out on my couch. Woke up to this news… fuck.
