Not really a meme, I know, but I thought this was amazing and worth sharing and I didn’t know where else to share it on Lemmy.
Ursula LeGuin was an incredible person and, although she did live a long life, her death was still a huge loss.

If you’re British, I can’t explain that. If you aren’t, it’s big in the UK (or at least used to be?) not only a whole book series, but a movie and a TV series.
The movie stars a very young Fairuza Balk and was big enough to get Diana Rigg and Tim Curry in it.
So not exactly Harry Potter, but still well-known. And certainly known well enough for Rowling to not have only heard of them, but very likely at least read the first one because she was 9 years old when it came out, which is pretty much the perfect age for that book.
No, sadly I live in the US :(
