The nannies who raise them, I’d imagine

I get that interpretation (like, I really get it...I’ve seen Ryan Adams live multiple times), but this seems a bit different. Kanye is volatile, but he doesn’t sound like that version of himself in that clip. He sounds genuinely worried, and quite polite, and perhaps a bit like he’s on autopilot.

Maybe somebody told him about Kim’s tweet today and he became concerned?

To be fair, it didn’t sound like an angry “What the fuck?”. It was more of an “Oh my God!” sort of “What the fuck?”

They probably paid a lot for the tickets and there will not be another performance (unlike if he had canceled) so I can understand their frustration.

I hope his kids are OK.

Seems kind of shitty for people in the crowd to be yelling “what the fuck.” He took off so abruptly I assume it’s something rough.

There’s a distinction between wanting your art to receive attention/appreciation and yourself to receive attention/appreciation. It’s cruel to insist that every person who wants their expression to be heard must also open up themselves, even against their own wishes. It’s not necessary.

Oh god I’m crying now. I didn’t know they did that. Imagine their families.

Poor baby, you deserved so much better.

If 20 6 year olds being murdered changed nothing in this country, I have little hope for any future change.

The pic that’s circulating of him in his hospital bed with his parents flanking him had me sobbing. It really drives home how much suffering these school shootings cause. But then again, if Sandy Hook wasn’t enough to spur gun laws to change, I’m not optimistic. My heart breaks for this family and every other victim…

I’m so sorry we failed you, sweet boy.

When I worked at a Jimmy Johns sub shop some years ago, we had a regular who would come in, order the tuna salad with sprouts on wheat, then take it into the bathroom and eat it. Maybe he just needed privacy to enjoy his gross sandwich? Nope—Tom walked in on him one day and the guy was taking a shit while eating his…

I don’t know which one of these is worse.

At summer camp when I was 7 or so, I saw a pile of pea-green turds on the floor right next to the toilet. They were there for at least three days.
