thank you from the bottom of my heart Paul Rubens for making it ok for kids and adults to be a little weird. You helped make the world a way more interesting place and I’ll miss having you in it.

The 1980s were a weird time. Greed was good, the president was a giant asshole that cut programs and blamed immigrants and the poor. Everything was fake and plastic and for appearances and then this total weirdo taught me about absurdity and farce in comedy and how to laugh at the fake world I inhabited and how to retreat into your imagination.

Pee Wee, you were the best.

@mathowie he really was.
