Dave Chappelle is widely considered to be a comedic genius. So when Netflix announced it had released two Chappelle stand-up specials, people freaked. A little comedy to wrap up this bitter year has to be a good thing, right?
Well, maybe. But maybe not. The specials just dropped, but there’s already some pushback when it comes to Chappelle’s thoughts on the transgender community.
Of the two videos, “The Bird Revelation” and “Equanimity,” it’s the latter that is once again bringing Chappelle’s controversial views into the spotlight. In it, he reflects on …read more

Trump Says U.S. Post Office Should Charge Amazon `Much More'
President Donald Trump said Friday the U.S. Postal Service should charge Amazon.com Inc. more to deliver packages, the latest in a series of public criticisms of the online retailer and one that sent the company’s stock lower in pre-market trading.
The post office “should be charging MUCH MORE” for package delivery, the president tweeted from his Mar-a-Lago estate in Florida, where he’s been spending the holidays.
“Why is the United States Post Office, which is losing many billions of dollars a year, while charging Amazon and others so little to deliver their packages, making Amazon richer and the Post Office dumber and poorer?” Trump told his 45 million followers.

Slight spoiler alert for Star Wars: The Last Jedi
Adam Driver agrees with you that he’s looking good in The Last Jedi – at least, according to Rian Johnson.
People caught up with the Star Wars: The Last Jedi director to ask how the much-buzzed-about beefcake moment came about.
“Adam looks so damn good because he’d been training hardcore for the past six months for those fight scenes,” Johnson told the magazine. “I’m like, ‘Eh. He looks so good. We should put him up there.'”

What people are talking about today
The Lakers just retired Kobe Bryant’s No. 8 and No. 24 jerseys. To mark the occasion, Nike revived its beloved campaign starring puppet versions of Bryant and LeBron James. In one of three spots, the puppets are lounging on a beach at sunset, sipping coconut juice, and Bryant taunts James about the honor he just got. “LeBron, I’m saving you an incredible burden,” he says. “You should be grateful that you’re not retiring two jerseys like myself. Imagine the weight of having two jerseys that inspired the nation, Le Bron. No the world.” (Watch it above.)

Illustration by Ad Age
If you have a tween girl, you’re probably familiar with their latest craze: colorful, over-size hair bows. And with the holidays approaching, you likely also know that these two gifts are hard to find: a hair-bow maker and a singing doll wearing the hair accessory.
Well, thank JoJo Siwa.
