      Speaking to The New Yorker about his time on Community, Glover said he viewed Chase as a legend who refused to recognize he was at the nadir of his career. “I just saw Chevy as fighting time — a true artist has to be O.K. with his reign being over,” Glover said. “I can’t help him if he’s thrashing in the water. But I know there’s a human in there somewhere—he’s almost too human.”

      Wow, that is simultaneously incredibly kind and brutally honest.

      OK he's a lot worse than I thought. I figured he was just your standard boomer. Like I wasn't going to go out of my way to support the fucker to begin with. Fuck. OK ignore me I'm completely wrong, he's a piece of shit and fuck him.

      I hadn't heard that, just the story about him dropping the n-word. Doesn't surprise me though, he's also pretty homophobic iirc.
