This article has been making the rounds today on Tumblr and Twitter. Most of the focus has been on the Netflix vs. HBO plot line but the above quote strikes me as as key point.

This may be the last one you can laugh at, so enjoy it, I guess.

Isn’t it kind of sad that children’s programming got so fucking bad that they’re bringing back these classics. Maybe today’s youth won’t turn out as retarded as I thought.

An interesting take on Sheen from China.
EDIT:
I wanted to add that I don’t think Donald Glover walks around all day saying these things, and asserting his masculinity. I think he probably smokes weed and works hard and respects himself too much to give a fuck. But there are people attacking his name and his work, and he needs a soapbox. This is how he expresses himself. Respect the fact that this is art, or a song, or entertainment, or...

whiteapricorn:
I mean, upon close (CLOSE; I JUST THINK A LOT ABOUT DONALD GLOVER, you guys) consideration, I could find a few different ways to spin that line:
The fact that black men’s sexuality is always perceived as threatening and dangerous; the “black male rapist” stereotype was always (and still is) a major figure in white American fantasy landscape. And black men have...
Chuck Norris Thinks The Public Schools Are Too... →
According to Chuck, these “progressive indoctrination camps” only hire teachers who will spread the dark-sided gayness to their students. Because of this, the “red, white and blue” on the American flag will soon be changed to the colors of the rainbow and all churches will be replaced with rolling skating rinks that only play Xanadu.
In which we realize that all...

I strongly recommend that everyone watch Donald Rumsfeld’s interview from last night on the Daily Show. I had the unique privilege of watching this play out live on the shared feed from the Daily Show to the Colbert Report control room and I think it’s an important interview for anyone with misgivings about the original circumstances of us going into Iraq (i.e. everyone hopefully).

Facebook, you need to realize that even thought you want to “connect” the world and think it will make everyone, including yourself, happy, some of us appreciate our ability to disconnect from cyberspace and share the important details of our life (like our fucking phone numbers) with real friends and people we care about and talk to. That doesn’t mean we hate you. Just we need...

– This is Aaron Sorkin. Seriously, you guys: It’s so weird that I haven’t read anything about how The Social Network, and the Zuckerberg Saga, resembles Sorkin’s own life. What I wrote for the Atlantic had to be cut down substantially before I turned it in, because I went down a rabbit hole with...
