Gene Roddenberry, you are one amazing lil fucker. 

But seriously though. Star Trek was one of the most progressive shows ever written and cast, and I loved your drive for equality and pressing the point that all human life is important. You are one amazing person, and I would have loved to have met you. You may be gone, but your spirit lives on in the hearts of every Star Trek fan and in every episode that continues to offer hope for humanity. Thank you, Mr. Roddenberry, for your amazing message and amazing execution of that message. Happy birthday. Rest in peace.

I might be late, but still…
