~~Bon Jovi~~ David Bowie and Harambe were the cosmic glue that kept the universe's shit together. Nothing's been normal since their deaths.

My dad died the same day David Bowie died. It really sucks to have all of your friends post things like, "David Bowie was an inspiration to me and made me the person I am today. His star has fallen and I will be devastated forever. Also, sorry about your dad, dude."

Nope, it was all David Bowie. Harambe is just some of the initial fallout.

After the following years, I've quietly taken the whole "this is when we diverged into the darkest timeline" schtick an iota more seriously. It's been a strange 8 years.
