*Steals “chalkasian

This will probably go on until some chalkasian comes along and reminds Kanye he’s black again...then it’ll be, “they just doing this cause I’m black.”

LeVar Burton and Ta Nehisi Coates need to appear in Kanye’s bedroom some night dressed as ghosts and make Ye read some damn books.

Another case of Asimov’s Cult of Ignorance - “My ignorance is just as good as your knowledge.”

I often try to pinpoint the moment when “everyone is entitled to their opinions” somehow erroneously morphed into “everyone’s opinion is entitled to respect.” Because NO.

Louder for the back row!

We need to stop this “I’m entitled to my opinion” non-sense. All opinions are not of value nor should they be respected. I know absolutely nothing about nuclear physics. My opinion on the topic of nuclear physics makes about as much sense as a soup sandwich.

Right, he felt that. I don’t think Kanye gets any kind of that talk...straight talk...from anyone around him.

Credit to Van for responding, in the moment and in the face a huge celebrity and icon and not backing down and still delivering some really real shit to Kanye’s face.

I hope they felt dumb as FUCK.

None of the jokes were about Sarah’s looks.

None of the jokes were about her looks. Anyone who says they were is projecting.

+1 Shoeless Joe Jackson

Was the joke about “her looks” the one comparing her to Aunt Lydia? Because I thought that joke had less to do with her actual appearance and more to do with her terrify persona and how she’s complicit in other women’s oppression.

But, also, Ann Dowd is really pretty? And comparing Sarah’s looks to Ann Dowd should not…

Doesn’t seem to stop Sal Perez.

Do the unwritten rules apply to people who can’t read or write?

In his next at bat, the kid was beaned by Justin Verlander

He’ll never be a Cardinal.

Don’t know how old the kid is, but he appears to be a great prospect already. A spitting image of a young Lou Gehrig.

The behavior of the parents is why I laugh when folks try to tell me a public school education is equal regardless of if you live in the city or the suburbs.
