• Music: *moment of silence*

Carrie Fisher, R.I.P.

Carrie Fisher was many things: mother, sister, daughter. Accomplished author and actress and script wizard. Advocate for mental health and addiction awareness.

But to five-year-old me, and to forty-five-year-old me, she was my first heroine.

To me, she was royalty.



I'd like to think the afterlife knows its Hamilton, and she is greeted properly:

Here comes the General. Rise up.
