On this day 10 years ago, we lost a true icon. Harambe wasn't just a majestic creature; he became a symbol of strength, unity, and a cultural phenomenon that brought people together like nothing else before or since.
They say legends never truly die because their memory lives
Today, we remember a legend.
On this day in history, Harambe would have celebrated another birthday. An icon that became part of internet history, American culture, and an entire generationβs timeline.
Tomorrow marks 10 years since we lost him. Ten years since the moment the world stopped scrolling and collectively mourned something bigger than a meme.
He became a symbol of loyalty, strength, chaos, unity, and the strange beauty of the internet bringing millions of people together for one cause: never forgetting Harambe.
Everyone remembers where they were when they heard the news. And somehow, a decade later, his legacy still lives on.
Gone, but never forgotten.
Rest easy to a true patriot. ποΈπΊπΈ

Forever in our hearts.
Message from Fred Seibert (former president of Hanna-Barbera and Frederator):
"Youβve already failed."
Thatβs what Ted Turner told me after I blew through $10,000,000.
Most CEOs would have shown me the door. But Ted wasnβt most CEOs. He was a "swashbuckling pirate" who understood something most MBA types miss:Β In creative industries, talent rules, and gambling is required.
I went back to him asking forΒ anotherΒ $10 million for a wild idea: making 48 short cartoons instead of one big hit.
His response changed the course of animation history. It led to:
β’ Dexterβs Laboratory
β’ Johnny Bravo
β’ Powerpuff Girls
β’ Courage the Cowardly Dog
β’ And more!
Working for a genius like Ted meant surviving the rants to witness the "leaps of magic." He didn't just build CNN and Cartoon Network; he built a world where entrepreneurs were encouraged to take 48 swings at the bat.
Rest in peace, Ted. Thanks for the $10M (and the second $10M).
