Glenn Shadix has died

Ortho has died. He was my favorite character in Beetlejuice, which is one of my favorite movies. Glenn Shadix was a gay man. I listened to an interview with him once where he described his experiences with gay therapy as a youth. It is reprised here in a YouTube clip. It was the first time I had ever heard of gay therapy. I now think of the process as criminal.

I am also a fan of his voice work in Nightmare before Christmas. He played the mayor. “Jack, please, I'm only an elected official here, I can't make decisions by myself!”
