And it looks like she won't make it.

Where did it say that?

Just because they said her condition was "not good" doesn't mean they think she won't survive it.

UPDATE: They have just announced that she is in stable condition.

Might be an opinion.

Various places.  I'm not sure who the source was.

However, the outlook seems to have improved.

2016, it's time to stop. We have EIGHT DAYS left in this year, and lately they've been hitting REALLY close to home....

Just focus on the SCIENCE stuff, KSP, and anything not involving politics, and you'll be fine.

I found out just before I went to see Rogue One. Pretty shocking. I didn't hear that she was in stable condition, though. Then again I don't want to search it because I'm afraid of what I find...I shall prepare my Darth Vader memes if the time comes to use them.

And now Carrie has passed away. My heart goes out to all her family, friends, and fans. Strong she was in the Force, but not that strong... *looks around for a new shimmering blue Force ghost*

That's it. Time to throw 2016 into an active volcano.

Carrie Fisher passed away today after a severe heart attack

Farewell Princess Leia and all the other characters she played

 

I'll always remember the princess, shooting with her eyes closed

[Green Baron]

Very sad that. Maybe someone has the idea to name an asteroid after her.

 

btw., off topic, but Rick Parfitt died as well a few days ago. And if you don't find someone else then i can help with the active volcano ...

In Carrie's memory, I'm re-naming my Dakar Rally car for her. I wish I could do more but I really can't think of anything

Well, at least they finished the filming for Ep VIII.

Now Disney has to find a way to kill her off before ep. 9

Books, good sir, books.

2016 is just the worst

RIP Carrie, Princess.

Overlapping threads merged, title changed to reflect sad news.

Somebody should make an artwork of all the Star Wars characters standing together, and as their respective actors die they become blue Force ghosts in the picture.

[Dman979]

And I was wrong, @_Augustus_.
