Today, the world lost a great man, and I lost a great friend. We return you now to the stars, Leonard. You taught us to ‘Live Long And Prosper,’ and you indeed did, friend. I shall miss you in so many, many ways.”
— George Takei offering a remembrance on his Facebook page for his friend and Star Trek costar Leonard Nimoy, who passed away today at age 83

A significant loss. Very sad.
Mr. Nimoy was a long-time ally. He knew George was gay and always loved and supported him.

I honestly hate George Takei. He just creeps me the fuck out! He’s so weird, and looks so perverse… Gross!

@TemptyK: Good thing that Leonard Nimoy’s dead IS NOT ABOUT YOU!!!

RIP ol’ friend. I remember when I was a kid sitting around the ol’ Philco with the rest of the family watching fascinated by your looks. I wasn’t as scared watching your show as I nearly always was when we watched The Outer Limits a year or two prior.
Hopefully when its my turn I will have the option of being launched into space and jettisoned out into space in a cremation capsule to drift for eternity. That may sound silly now but so did the things that went into the script of Star Trek. Many of them are now reality.

@TemptyK: I’m sure you’re not quite the catch yourself, missy. Not with THAT type of attitude.

@TemptyK: That is illogical.

RIP Mr Nimoy. While I was not a big fan of Star Trek, he was a good man with good values. Not too many of those around anymore.
This was Leonard Nimoy’s last tweet:

Well, I tried to post “you will be missed” in Yiddish (Mr. Nimoy spoke fluent Yiddish and was active in the Jewish community), but seems Queerty doesn’t speak Yiddish.

RIP, Mr. Nimoy.

All the great people seem to leave us the fastest. RIP, Spock!

More Spock, less Schock.

@onthemark: LOL. Thank you.

@TemptyK: Everyone is entitled to his opinion, no matter how offensive, but ask yourself if it was really necessary or appropriate to write that comment in response to an article about the death of a beloved actor. Some things are better left unsaid.

Rest In Peace, Leonard Nimoy
