R.I.P. Robin Williams

It greatly saddens me to learn that Robin Williams has died this Monday, apparently of suicide by asphyxiation. He was one of my favorite actors growing up, acting in many of my favorite childhood movies like Mrs. Doubtfire and Aladdin. He was also an amazing actor, showing an unmatches level of energy in both his movies and his stand-up, not to mention being incredibly versatile. whether it was his comedic or dramatic roles, he truly BECAME his characters.

Robin always seemed like the kind of person who tried to enjoy life and make people laugh, which makes it even harder to think of all the demons he's had to endure. His death, much like Justin Carmichal earlier this year, is another sign that depression is a serious problem that can affect anyone. He will be missed.
