I can only imagine how pivotal SOPHIEs visibility was to some trans and nonbinary people on their journeys, that loss feels so staggering

RIP...

An insignificant observation for the news item; is it Athens, Greece, Athens Georgia, some other Athens?

The godmother of hyperpop. Considering how frequent trans suicides are, it's kind of assuring her death was an accident and that her last moments were admiring something beautiful. RIP to an icon.

am i missing something in the article, i dont get how falling down inside your house would kill you if youre only 34 years old.

and what does trying to see a full moon mean? ''trying to see'' a full moon? whats to try? look out the window or go outside. confused by this article

a fall can kill anyone of any age, especially if you land badly.

and is probably reasonable to assume she couldnt see the moon from her windows or outside on the ground due to things like, other houses, fences, hedges, etc

so she climbed onto the roof for a better view.

im sorry but i dont really see whats so hard to understand

"i dont get how falling down inside your house would kill you if youre only 34 years old."
She died outside. The description of her death is ambiguous.

You can die at any age from landing on your head.

I had a fall a few years ago, landed well, and I still had a lengthy recovery process and expect to have problems later in life. And I’m only 24

I know it often gets said out of etiquette but I really think she had her best work still yet to come - her remix album was her most interesting and she had been playing some really cool ambient pieces live in the last year that indicated the direction she was heading in.

"i dont get how falling down inside your house would kill you if youre only 34 years old."

Gonna beat this horse again, but the human body is unimaginably fragile and it's by dumb luck alone that most of us haven't bumped the wrong part of our body with the wrong amount of force and died. I'm only 30 and I can feel that my body is a lot less stupidly robust as it was when I was 20 or 25. Freak accidents like this happen all the time and are so sad.

pretty sure it sounds like she fell off her roof or a railing up high, not just falling in her house.

They obviously had so much more to do and were only getting started. Their influence will be seen for years to come but having to talk about someone's legacy at 34 feels perverse.

I just barely got into her stuff, seems like she had a lot left to give.
