Jon Sellers 5/10/1964 to 2/?/2021 - I had just finished yesterday’s Gate(Less) when I received a messenger notification from his sister. “If you didn’t hear Jon is dead.” I know I said yesterday I wouldn’t make another public post but one should never make occult decisions while under the influence of grief. I took the above picture in 2014 down in LA while acting a part as myself in a never-released television pilot.

I’ll write more soon. As I said to a mutual friend yesterday, “Processing.”
