Seriously. Now is not the time to fuck around about this, Kanye. Best case scenario is this is just a stunt, he drops an album in a week or two and then it all goes away. He’s already missed the deadline to get on the ballot in several states (nearly half), so people can’t even vote for him unless they write his name in. And really, what has the last three years taught us? If anything, it taught us that we do not need a celebrity with a massive ego and no government experience in the WH because when the shit comes down (say, when a pandemic happens), they have no idea what to do and the country just slides off the cliff. I am seeing an album called Yahndi appearing on all my *cough*alternate source*cough* sites that appeared on Thursday. Could that be it? They checked to see if Kanye has filed any paperwork necessary to run, and he has not (and for many states the deadline has passed, and for several, the deadline is today or tomorrow). So...it’s a strong possibility.

So his company got a small business protection bailout. Claiming it saved 160 jobs. So he's a billionaire but he needs government money to keep his business afloat? I really hate these hideous people. Can we start building guillotines yet?

Kanye has a whopper of an interview today in Forbes. It’s a super disturbing interview, down to him saying vaccines are a mark of the devil and “they’re” trying to put chips in us.
Is anyone in his family trying to help him? WTF Kim? It’s so sad to me that he’s clearly unmedicated and struggling with mental health issues. I have a dark imagination and sometimes wonder if Kim and the kids are safe with him. I could see him snapping and doing something awful because God told him to.

When did the general attitude about Kanye switch from artistic genius with unusual marketing strategies to unmedicated bipolar who needs help? eveschmeve I'm not trying to be super snarky or dismissive of your comment (and since I've watched Hamilton on Disney+ 3x now I love your avatar). Teen Wol and I watched the Taylor Swift Netflix doc last night and it definitely highlighted that his "antics" were designed to push buttons and draw attention to himself and his work. I am curious if there was a turning point from "crazy like a fox marketing skillz" to "unmedicated bipolar who is a danger to himself and others" and I see the latter analysis all over social media so clearly it's a concern. And if it really is the latter I don't think anyone is going to step in and help him soon as long as people are making money off of him (see Houston, Whitney).

When did the general attitude about Kanye switch from artistic genius with unusual marketing strategies to unmedicated bipolar who needs help? I think it goes back and forth depending upon how annoyed people are with him at the time. When he's being less annoying, people try to have sympathy for his mental health struggles. And then other times, he's too obnoxious to be given the benefit of the doubt. Personally, I just don't have time for him. Nobody cares about his fake presidential run and he's not being given the time of day, which is how it should be. I wish him well with his private life, including his mental health. But I have nothing but disdain for his behavior as a celebrity, and truly just do my best to ignore his bids for attention.

Was it his mom who made sure he took his meds? He seemed to be more even keeled before her death.

When did the general attitude about Kanye switch from artistic genius with unusual marketing strategies to unmedicated bipolar who needs help? My personal opinion changed when he was hospitalized. He’s also openly admitted to being unmedicated and bipolar. I think there’s also a big difference between “Beyoncé had the best music video of the year” and “vaccines are a mark of the devil and a way for the government to implant chips in you.” But I get it, it’s hard to tell what’s a calculated stunt (I might put running for President in that category) and what’s not. I’m more baffled that Kim pretends that everything is fine. Maybe we’ll hear the real story one day.

I had no idea he actually admitted he was ill and that he had been hospitalized for it (I try to avoid the whole Kardashian experience). I should prolly do more homework before I post.

Does Instagram still exist? If the answer is yes to these questions then I suspect that everything's absolutely fine in Kim's world.

Well if people didn't think it before, This interview did it. Some of the stuff he's saying isn't even rational. If this was someone in my life they'd either get help or I'd be gone.
