Kyle MacLachlan's tribute to David Lynch is really beautiful so I will post it in its entirety here.
--
What I saw in him was an enigmatic and intuitive man with a creative ocean bursting forth inside of him. He was in touch with something the rest of us wish we could get to.
Our friendship blossomed on Blue Velvet and then Twin Peaks and I always found him to be the most authentically alive person I’d ever met.
David was in tune with the universe and his own imagination on a level that seemed to be the best version of human. He was not interested in answers because he understood that questions are the drive that make us who we are. They are our breath.
While the world has lost a remarkable artist, I’ve lost a dear friend who imagined a future for me and allowed me to travel in worlds I could never have conceived on my own.
I can see him now, standing up to greet me in his backyard, with a warm smile and big hug and that Great Plains honk of a voice. We’d talk coffee, the joy of the unexpected, the beauty of the world, and laugh.
His love for me and mine for him came out of the cosmic fate of two people who saw the best things about themselves in each other.
I will miss him more than the limits of my language can tell and my heart can bear. My world is that much fuller because I knew him and that much emptier now that he’s gone.
David, I remain forever changed, and forever your Kale. Thank you for everything.

anyway since I am now nothing but a ball of nearly unregulated instability, I am now slightly obsessed with the line

i find myself and a lot of friends in this, and it's a good moment to stop and remember that life is not about collecting kudos for being right, it's about building kindness, experience, and wisdom about a thing so that you can ask more useful and important questions about the next thing.

@mav 😢
May we all find that person who sees in us what we don't see in ourselves. And be that person to someone else.

@mav I believe that David Lynch called him "Kale" because that's how Dino de Laurentiis used to pronounce his name on the Dune set. And it stuck, as a joke between two friends.
