You don’t know he’s not depressed. Remember Robin.
I thought the depression rumor was debunked? Somebody correct me if I’m wrong, but didn’t Robin get a dementia diagnosis, and thus chose to go out on his own terms, rather than slowly rot away?
Half right - he did battle depression his entire life, and he was diagnosed with Lewy Body Dementia and Parkinson’s not too long before committing suicide. There’s really no way to prove which one influenced his decision more, but it was likely because of both.
Looked up LBD to see what it’s about and…damn… https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/lewy-body-dementia/symptoms-causes/syc-20352025
Oof
Depression. People with Lewy body dementia might develop depression.
So he already had depression, and then got a disease that causes depression.
If not dementia, it was a similarly debilitating condition. Wanted to dip on his own terms before he became a husk of himself.
RIP Rob, you were the GOAT.
It was Lewy Body Dementia. He had periods of lucidity and in one of those decided that he no longer wanted to live as a prisoner in his own body, and a burden to his family because for all intents and purposes his life as a functioning human was over.
Honestly his entire circumstance is a shining example of why we need a death with dignity law.
It was Lewy Body Dementia, I remember because my grandma had it. It’s non-hereditary thankfully, but just as debilitating as Alzheimer’s.
A real clown would of had a ‘yes then’ for Glass’s joke
Andy Dwyer was the Jack black of parks and rec. shame Chris Pratt didn’t embrace that character type. One of my most favourite roles he’s ever done.
Jack Black killed the metal
YOU CANNOT KILL THE METAL
But really, Jack and Kyle said the D will return last I heard
I dunno, that limp spined shit earlier this year (or was it last year now?) kinda killed any love I felt for Jack Black. He became an avatar of the “we need to be better persons and treat the rising fascist movement with the same respect and legitimacy as any other political movement” that the Democrats were following until Harris finally started running a real campaign against Trump.
Ironically enough, his considering ending Tenacious D out loud over that comment killed off the part of me that was upset he’d end Tenacious D over that comment.
Though I am curious if he came to regret speaking out about that and how quickly he got there.
Supportive upbringing is a helluva drug
Millions of dollars also doesn’t hurt.
Successful career doesn’t hurt.
He is also a spineless worm

How so? I don’t know anything about him personally
People are mad because he denounced Gass when Gass made comments regarding Trump’s would be assassin missing, but security at concerts are trash and it’s reasonable the the both of them could be shot by a Trump supporter.
Shot by a Trump supporter?!? At a concert in Australia?!? I think that’s a bit of a stretch, mate.
Why did I read that in an Australian accent?
I must be going troppo!
…do you think they’ll never leave Australia? Don’t they both live in America?
I think they meant in the future, not in that particular concert lol
That’s not their only tour stop or do you expect the two to apply for citizenship? Also, Trump in an international cult leader at this point. Someone could cobble together a zipgun anywhere and sneak it close.
Ye, but then again the band split because of it. They’ll probably reform and make a dumb song about it in the future, but still.
Made comments? He blew out a candle and wished for them not to miss Trump with a bullet. Literally calling for the death of someone else. Wishing death on anyone is a pretty shit thing to do.
I wish Putin nothing but death and misery. I guess, I am a real shitty person.
I wish Trump and Putin could somehow be used to bash each other to death, simultaneously. So, I guess I’m as bad as you.
Was there any psychological benefit to Italians to see Mussolini hang, and spit on his corpse?
I’d say it helped reduce the impression that Italians supported who he was and what he represented.
Misery and death. If he gets death first, he’d miss out on the misery.
I wish for Trump what Trump wishes for his “enemies”.
Except for a literal and admitted wannabe despot who would have made Osama Bin Laden go “hey man, not cool.”
Wishing for the death of verifiably evil people is perfectly fine, healthy, and normal.
Why not having them locked up and prosecuted? All those rabid MAGAs calling for death and destruction are deranged, I think we agree. Who gets to decide when it’s appropriate to assassinate politicians in our democracy?
When they’re inches away from regaining the highest office in the country, pretty much anyone, because it clearly won’t be the people who’s job it is. Who talk endlessly about how he’s a very real threat to the very fabric of our country, then do fuck all to protect their citizens, allowing years to pass before his very public and overt crimes are even addressed.
No. Jack O’Neill shot Apophis in the face like 4 times. Luke Skywalker ended Darth Vader’s reign. Captain Janeway demolished the Borg. Biden and Garland allowed a domestic terrorist and real-life cartoon villain to campaign for president, and he may actually win. Fuck. That. At this point I don’t give a flying fuck how “complex” real life is. He needs to go, just like Apophis.
Still sad that hitler died on a workplace accident?
Yes, that’s what happened. But we’re not talking about Gass, we’re talking about Jack Black and his reaction to that which was cancelling the tour.
Which in my opinoin was a perfectly reasonable response given the recent attempt on Trump’s life, as well as the threats that had already been made about specific Taylor Swift concerts.
I can’t even imagine the amount of death and rape threats that they and their families received after those comments. Imagine leaving for a world tour amidst that.
I guess fuck him for not wanting his fans to get shot up at a concert by some psychopath.
Because of cowards like you. I have to take my shoes off at the airport for zero reason other than to obey.
Nah dog, not when they want and created policy that causes people you love to die.
Is the d back together again? If not, I don’t want to hear it!
I mean if i was kyle gass id tell jack black to go fuck himself. He made a big fit over a simple joke when his whole shtick(before being a literal clown for Disney™) was being an ‘edgy’ comedian who writes songs that are supposed to be offensive.
Lots of times when me and KG are watching
All the fucking shit that goes down at City Hall
We get the feeling we should fuck shit up
Yeah, we should fucking start a riot
A riot!
And the song continues to tell about the destruction of the government, with the implication that previous leaders are dead. It’s obviously a joke song, and when KG made the joke on stage it should have been taken just the same, but Hollywood Jack stepped in and thought about all of the movie deals he was gonna miss out on… like fucking Minecraft… Yeah. I love Jack, and I wish him the best, but I am on KG’s side, and if they haven’t fixed this shit on a personal level, and Kage comes out with some shit about Jack sucking, I’m gonna wave goodbye to the D.
What joke did KG make?
He said something, as he was making a birthday wish on stage, to the effect of “I hope the next shooter doesn’t miss”. For context it was like 2 days after the first Trump attempted shooting
Thanks, I was quite out of the loop!
Oof
Seriously, everyone knows if you say your wish aloud it won’t come true.
He throws his friends under the bus
All these but hurt commenters because he condemned calling for political violence.
Agreed. Also seems people are keen to cut down tall poppy’s. Is slagging off Black in fashion now?
sure, why not? fuck disney clowns and people who support fascits rhetoric
That’s super vague, the police are political violence.
Jack had great parents from what I gather. I don’t think his demons are all that loud.
I fear for him. I don’t want another Robin Williams event
Robin Williams had a chronic disease with a horrible outcome. Guy went out on a high note, all things considered.
I… Am Steve!
I must be out of the loop did something happen w/ Jack Black?
Thanks. I’m with KG here and think JB is just overreacting and trying to prevent any damage to his name.
Calling for death, even as a joke, is deplorable. And in Trumps case, dangerous. It’s one thing to make this joke with a couple of friends, it’s entirely another when the entire country sees it - both the crazies that would do it, or the crazies that would shoot them for it.
what about putin? is that different bcus he is foreign? osama bin laden? sounds like you just dont understand the real world king.
Still deplorable. There are more humane ways than a death penalty (which btw most of the civilised world tries to abolish)
Incorrect
The timing was a big factor too, it was like only a day or so after the attempt and while everyone was trying to calm down the situation and condemn the assassination attempt so as not to incite any other people for doing the same or reaction to the attempt, and then he goes and says that, it was very against the grain of the moment.
Bit of a [tragedy+time=comedy] but the time hadnt passed yet so the edge was too sharp
Apparently when KG was blowing out his birthday candles on stage they asked him to make a wish, and he said “Don’t miss Trump next time”. JB is working on his clean image and stepped away, I don’t think they have any beef tbh, but the D is on hold atm. source
the D is on hold atm
Okay good but what about their band?
I mean that’s fair, you’re not really supposed to joke about killing former presidents, even if it’s in reference to the biggest piece of shit of the 21st century
Yeah same. Before I opened this comment section I’ve never even heard of a person that dislikes JB.
