i hung out with this guy a couple times before he became an actor. really cool dude (i loled at him when he told me he was looking into acting). he knew a lot about obscure straight edge hardcore bands.

wtf did he really get raped? i know he was on heroin for a while.

you'd have to know hardcore music to understand how odd it is that he knew these bands, but i talked to him one night for hours about Youth of Today, Bold, Into Another, etc. those are fairly obscure bands even for people who are into punk.

he was actually from baltimore, but i met him in NYC.

yeah i saw this story before you poasted and it mentioned he attributes his struggles with heroin and booze to getting diddled.

very sad. him and frank were the best characters introduced in season 2. the guy who played nick was so wooden. think about that season a lot lately since revolves around the bridge that turdskin boat destroyed. tragically poetic about how it's all about the hollowing out of the america dream. now the bridge is gone and ziggy's dead irl. fuck.

The alleged abuse led to a “lifetime of shame and embarrassment” for Ransone, who told Rualo his actions propelled him to become an alcoholic and a heroin addict. After getting sober in 2006, Ransone said he was “ready to confront” his past. He later reported the accusations to Baltimore County police in March 2020.

damn man, i never heard that. based on the little i interacted with him, he seemed like a really nice guy. i ran into him at an emo show at Johns Hopkins in like 1999, that was the last time i saw him. i always liked seeing him in high profile roles and it made me think back to when he told me he was going to try acting and how he MAED it, even if he wasn't super famous or rich. he had a legit acting career.

Youth of Today is not obscure at all. According to NYC dorks they’re more influential than Minor Threat.

fair point, actually. they are pretty well known, at least among punk rock types.

but we were also talking about bold and into another and turning point and judge and bands like that.

why are his obituaries omitting his most notorious role as 'Tate' from the edgy teen drama 'Ken Park'?
