James Randi is DEAD to ME

I wonder if he is talking to dead relatives NOW lol. Poor James. I had no idea he was even gay until that documentary on him. I liked to watch him debunk psychics but I still believe in them.

Amazing!

Rest in Grace.

He only formally came out in 2010, though he and his husband were together for something like 40 years.

He was very cool.

He was an amazing man. What a ride...

If there really is anything after this, I hope he's tripping his brains out in amazement.

Here's the official announcement from the James Randi Educational Foundation.

With extra amazing.

I swear I used to have a vocabulary before the fucking pandemic showed up.

RIP good man.

And Uri Geller is still a fraud.

R3, his husband doesn’t look old enough to have been with someone for 40 years.

They were the Tom Daley and Dustin Lance Black of their day. They met in the 80s, when Deyvi was a college student.

They actually have a fascinating story. After they got together, Randi helped train Deyvi to be a fake psychic named Carlos who was a brief sensation on Australian TV in the late 80s, who he then exposed. Then it turned out that he was in the country illegally because he was trying to escape anti-gay harassment (like, going to be murdered embarrassment) in Venezuela.

His child-bride has a curiously Anton Lavey-esque affect for one married to a debunker, no?

[quote]He is survived by his husband.

But,but he's a boy!

Ahh, that’s sad. He lived a long life and will be remembered fondly (by most) for debunking those vultures.

Uri Gellar has always been a fraud.

Grow up.

Psychic/telepathic abilities are not impossible, they are just rare. It's not so much him but the type of audience he attracts. The typical straight white male hyper-rationalist types who are egotistical and condescending and act like they have life figured out. They tend to be educated but have no wisdom.

I remotely sense that R16 is a frau.

I remotely sense that R16 is an idiot!

I remember him exposing Uri Geller on the Carson show. James Randi was a blast! RIP

Oh no! I loved his majick!

R17 or she’s a “sensitive” herself
