The death of an icon - RIP Notorious RBG. (and........damn). https://www.npr.org/2020/09/18/100306972/justice-ruth-bader-ginsburg-champion-of-gender-equality-dies-at-87

It is as though I had read a divine text, written into the world itself, not with letters but rather with essential objects, saying: Man, stretch thy reason hither, so thou mayest comprehend these things. Johannes Kepler

Dammit. She was an amazing woman. 2020 strikes again.

I somehow doubt that her most fervent wish will be honored.

RBG held out as long as she could. She died on the last day of the year 5780 on the Hebrew calendar.

That's for sure, things are becoming more divisive every day, might take a total meltdown for her wish to <maybe> come true.

Go placidly amid the noise and waste, and remember what comfort there may be in owning a piece thereof.

I'm glad I live in a country where the law defines how an office holder is replaced instead of their supposed dying wish.

"Today, our Nation mourns the loss of a titan of the law. Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg served more than 27 years as an Associate Justice of the Supreme Court of the United States—notably just the second woman to be appointed to the Court. She was a loving wife to her late husband, Martin, and a dedicated mother to her two children. Renowned for her brilliant mind and her powerful dissents at the Supreme Court, Justice Ginsburg demonstrated that one can disagree without being disagreeable toward one’s colleagues or different points of view. Her opinions, including well-known decisions regarding the legal equality of women and the disabled, have inspired all Americans, and generations of great legal minds. A fighter to the end, Justice Ginsburg battled cancer, and other very long odds, throughout her remarkable life. Our thoughts and prayers are with the Ginsburg family and their loved ones during this difficult time. May her memory be a great and magnificent blessing to the world."

Looking forward to what's on the horizon. Out with the old.
