Seriously, I hope it's soon announced that Kanye is entering rehab, because it's clear that he's at least bingeing and needs to stand back and take a look at how he's going. It might not help the assholeishment, but at least he'd be an asshole who keeps his mouth mostly shut.
Kanye did apologize on his blog...sort of.

Allyson--I am halfway through and totally in love with Sam. Sorry that I did't have any constructive notes, but it is already in really good shape. I am so digging the book that I am going to finish it for my own selfish enjoyment and if I do have any (too late) notes. I will send them along. Basically so far all I have to say is Scrappy + Sam 4eva.
Seriously? Not just sayin' that because you love me and I just re-purpled my hair?
Nope. Although I do love you and your hair.
Huh. I am a freak, as I do this too: Can you see time?
"I thought everyone thought like I did, says Holly Branigan, also a scientist at Edinburgh University, and someone with time-space synaesthesia.
"I found out when I attended a talk in the department that Julia was giving. She said that some synaesthetes can see time. And I thought, ‘Oh my god, that means I’ve got synaesthesia’."
So what exactly does she see?
"For me it’s a bit like a running track," she says.
"The track is organised around the academic year. The short ends are the summer and Christmas holidays – the summer holiday is slightly longer.
"It’s as if I’m in the centre and I’m turning around slowly as the year goes by. If I think ahead to the future, my perspective will shift."
Me two. Although I picture the year differently - for me, Nov. and Dec. are at the lowest part of the track. When a new year begins, I have the sensation of rotating to a new point of view as I see the year from a January perspective.
Was he drunk when he posted that?
Probably, but all his posts sound like that. He's just trying to be a doper person.
Best of luck with the book, Allyson, and congrats on getting it done.
Yay Allyson!!
