@@austyp78 i don't believe that she really thought that. It was her sense of 'self depreciating' humour. I think it takes a person who is really confident within themselves, to stand up there in front of thousands and let them laugh at you 😅
oh yeah come on stop with the grimness already. ten years without satire. and hundred years without science since einstein died and five hundred years without painting because da vinci died etc etc. joan would be the first to make fun of you because of how you are turning her into some superlative. life isn’t without its difficulties and we miss joan a lot nevertheless of course. but this irreplaceability lamenting and turning people into icons is just a symptom of our own traumatic clinging.
i miss her so much. the world has changed so much in the last 10 years, i miss hearing her talk and make jokes about it. she was even gone pre-trump world, so sad
September 2024: I sure wish Joan was still with us to give us her take on donOLd's presidential campaign - sh'e have us rolling yet be pointing out the truth!
