Remembrances

It fills me with deep sadness to report this. Brad Linville has left us. On Thursday Feb 20, life for Brad had become too unbearable so he chose to end it. His sister in Idaho has been notified. No other details available at this time.

In Memory of Brad O B Linville
The world lost a kind and gentle soul on Thursday. Brad was a sweet, thoughtful man, deeply loved by those who knew him. He carried a quiet warmth, but also a heavy burden—one that so many in this country know too well. He worried about his future, about access to the medication and support he relied on, about a system that seems to be unraveling beneath the weight of greed and cruelty.
We can never fully know what leads someone to take their own life, but we do know this: fear and uncertainty should never be the price of existence. It breaks my heart to think about all the people out there—like Brad—who lie awake at night, anxious about basic survival while billionaires drain the system dry, growing richer off the suffering of others.
If there’s anything to take from this loss, let it be this: Step away from the news when it becomes too much. It is designed to make you feel powerless. Do not let it consume you. Instead, reach for your friends, your family, the people who love you. We have to hold each other up. And we also have to pay attention. To what we buy. To the companies we support. To the people we surround ourselves with. Every dollar we spend, every vote cast, every act of loyalty—these things matter. They shape the world we live in. This country is more divided than ever, and I have no space left in my life for those who would vote against my rights. That’s the price of supporting tyranny.
Brad, you deserved better. We all do. May you rest in peace.
