Scott Erik Kaufman, a writer at Salon and other outlets, and a blogger at Acephalous and Lawyers Guns and Money, has passed away.
I was never lucky enough to meet SEK, as I thought of him. But he was an incredibly smart writer who I’ve linked countless times over the years, both for his political writing and for his comics analysis. Plus, he was hilarious. The world is better because he passed through it.
A lot of people are memorializing Scott on Facebook. There’s also a fundraiser to help his family with medical bills.
