Everybody you’ve ever met has something to say about the thing that everybody’s talking about. Which is fine.<\/p>\n
Opinions are great. We (and the internet en masse) love a hot take, and we usually love it even more when it makes us feel closer to friends and strangers or that unique mix between two on Twitter. Few things bond like massive moments in pop culture (or celebrity relationships or season finales or, or, or) so when something happens, we leap at it and embrace it tightly, psyched that for a few fleeting minutes we can forget about the big things that are terrible.<\/p>\n
Until you don’t really have an opinion. Heaven help us all.<\/p>\n
This week, Kanye West came back to Twitter<\/a> and has since been using it as his philosophy book. He’s tweeted about creativity, about originality, and about using and needing space. He’s urged us to push back against how we’re told to “act,” and to begin using authenticity as a currency over money. He also mentioned controversy being the gym, which I, as a person who would rather perish than go to the gym, truly loved. And it’s great! It’s all great! They’re good tweets! And that’s basically been my opinion on them.<\/p>\n truth is my goal. Controversy is my gym. I’ll do a hundred reps of controversy for a 6 pack of truth<\/p>\n \u2014 KANYE WEST (@kanyewest) April 19, 2018<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n
