Kurt Vonnegut's scarpered. He's been predicting his own death for the last twenty years and it looks like he was right about that too.

So it goes. I think this is a nice summation.

Kurt Vonnegut was a good man, a kind man, a mensch. Our world is a shallower, drearier place without him. But anyone who has enjoyed any of his work, or been lucky enough to bask in his twinkle, can still rejoice, because we will always have him, in all his idiosyncratic twisted-chess perversity. The world is less without him, but it will always be more because of him.

Fuck. This is the genuinely the most depressing news I've had in ages. Who will fill his shoes?
