You know, Robin Williams was the reason that I started doing stand-up comedy? My personal hero. Knowing that he did this for Neelix, especially when he was getting a lot of hate? Robin is a saint. Also just a small thing because I wanted to honor the man...

Reason #72151.

7-21-51.

July 21st, 1951.

Robin Williams birthdate.

Carry on 💙

Exactly. I thought he was exactly that too for a long time until started seeing those cracks under the facade. He's a really deep and, like you say, complex character. I love him. Honestly relate to him a little bit. Didn't go through something as monumentally horrifying as watching my planet burn but I adopted the same defense mechanism. I feel for the dude.
