Donald Glover stand-up taping was fucking amazing. I honestly feel a little spiritually uplifted from laughing that hard, but that could just be because I've had a rough week.
A good 10-15 (or maybe 20? I lost track of time completely) minutes of the set were devoted to how horrible and weird kids are--how they have no empathy and basically aren't socially unacceptable. I wonder if there's any thematic significance in the fact that his rapping name is Childish Gambino. Could be he views his rap as somewhat of an outlet for all of his worst and strangest impulses. Maybe one day when care more and the standup special airs so I have primary sources I'll write an essay about it. #probablynot
