We do a lot of Twitter roundups here at Memebase. The site is absolutely brimming with clever witticisms from extremely funny writers and comedians. Though it is satisfying to parse through consistent collections of fresh tweets, sometimes we wish there was a Twitter time capsule that allowed us to revisit some of the best the site's ever had to offer. Fortunately for us, Twitter user @awkwardduck pretty much created such a time capsule when she asked her followers to share the best tweets they'd  ever seen on the bird app. The results? Absolutely amazing. The thread is basically an unending walk down hilarious tweet memory lane. We've put together some of our favorites below, but if you want more (and naughtier) tweets, take a look at the thread yourself. You wont regret it.

Looks like 2021 has claimed its first victims. You know, besides the thousands of people who have died of Covid-19. Page Six dropped a bomb on pop culture fanatics yesterday. The bomb? That Kim Kardashian and Kanye West are getting divorced. The exclusive report claims that multiple sources have come forward to share that "divorce is imminent" for the couple. This isn't the first time a tabloid has teased their journey to Splitsville, but Page Six cites Kanye's absence from the Kardashian family holiday celebrations and Kim's equally absent wedding ring as proof that they are calling it quits. 

The high profile couple has yet to speak on the matter, but people on Twitter are making up for their silence with some seriously funny and scathing reactions. While some people are giddy about the news (people who love drama, Kanye fans who crave new music), other Twitter users are using this moment to call out Kim and Kanye for their narcissism, money-hungry families, and some of the more ridiculous stunts of their relationship. And then there are the people who claim they don't care - but for some reason feel the need to tell the world about it. 

Remember the time Kanye kidnapped Kenny G and had him perform in the middle of a room full of roses as a Valentine's gift to Kim Kardashian? Well, we didn't think it was possible, but he really one-upped himself with his latest stunt. At Kim's extravagant birthday getaway on some private island, Kanye arranged a simulated reunion with her dead dad. Yup. Kim and her sisters were led into a dark room to greet a holographic deepfake of Robert Kardashian doing a (totally human) little dance and delivering a bizarre monologue from heaven about how much he misses the family and what a genius Kanye West is.

Almost immediately after Kim tweeted a video of the hologram, Twitter predictably exploded with jokes and bewilderment. You'd think that by now we'd all be immune to bizarre and outrageous cultural events, but man, this demented year keeps delivering the weirdness at an impressive rate. We've put together some of the best Twitter reactions to the garish birthday gift.

Whether you're a cellist who only listens to Bach, a noise musician working on your first ambient album, or just a casual enjoyer of good tunes, we've put together a symphony of memes for every kind of music enthusiast. This list is kinda like jazz—chaotic but structured by an underlying theme.

We don't have to look for proof that Kanye West has kind of lost it. He just keeps servin' it up to us for free. Today's Kanye West meltdown was largely about the music industry. The rapper actually violated his NDA and shared his entire  record contract with Universal on Twitter. He also referred to himself as 'Baby Putin.' Bur the tweet we are most entertained by is a video of Kanye appearing to pee on his own damn Grammy award. Much of Twitter seems to be focused on the same - sharing bemused and often concerned. We've included the video (and the reactions) below for your enjoyment. We may have fun taking in the Kanye West spectacle, but at the end of the day we hope he gets the help he needs.

Dig metal? Make your own music? Study the ups and downs of pop music? This semi-diverse batch of memes has got you covered. Especially if you like rock and roll. They're not the best ` in the world, but these shitposts are definitely worth the scrolling. They might even inspire you to play a record that's been collecting dust.

Can 2020 get any weirder? Clearly, the answer is continuously yes. Kanye West announced via Twitter on the Fourth of July that he is running for president of the United States in this year's election. While everyone's favorite cringey billionaire memelord Elon Musk has endorsed Yeezy, the announcement has been met with a whole boatload of criticism from pretty much everyone else on the internet. Some are even saying that the move is a ploy to take black voters away from Biden, ultimately giving Trump a better chance of winning. Regardless of where you stand on the issue, we're pretty sure you'll thoroughly enjoy these memes and tweets. 

All we have left to say is, at this point absolutely nothing surprises us about 2020.

You're gonna need an ice pack after you read these sick burns from Twitter, Reddit and more!

Kanye West is no stranger to being mocked and ridiculed by the general public, and his latest creative effort has really opened him up to a whole lot more amused scrutiny. West debuted his new opera Mary at Art Baselin Miami Beach yesterday. The opera is about the life of Jesus Christ, and features the standard cast of biblical characters - except they're all donning silver outfits and body paint. Images from the performance (and from after the performance) are being meme'd like crazy on Twitter, and while the jokes are on point, this is nothing compared to how people usually tear West apart. Has Twitter gone soft?

If you haven't heard (or understandably just don't give a crap), Kanye West has started preaching the Gospel in his newest album, Jesus is King. He's even given up swearing, and has vowed to change his old lyrics to cleaner versions. No, we're not joking. 

The album hasn't received the best reviews so far (apart from Donald Trump Jr.'s favorable remarks), but the song "Closed on Sunday" has gotten a fair amount of attention for its mock-worthy lyric, "closed on a Sunday, you're my Chick-Fil-A" in reference to the fast food chain's well-known Christian morals. 

Need we say anymore?

Come and get your daily dose of memes!

Aspiring lawyer Kim Kardashian opened herself up to some savage trolling today when contacting Jack In The Box regarding injustice she allegedly witnessed at one of the fast food chain's locations. The tweet reads "Hey, Jack In The Box I have a serious complaint but I won't fully put you on blast, check your corporate email inbox or send me a DM with direct person for my team to contact. Pronto!" and had Twitter users wondering what the hell happened to make Kanye's wife so upset. 

Kardashian was quick to offer a disclaimer: "I would like to add that this is not about me or a wrong order. Nobody recognized me and it's something that I observed that affected other customers at this particular location that was concerning." Judging by this tweet, Kim's charitable nature extends beyond prison reform. Unfortunately, this didn't stop memers from roasting the crap out of the "self-made" celebrity. And by golly, the tweets were good. Now all we need to know is the tea behind this tweet. Fingers crossed it comes out sooner rather than later. 

It seems like CBD is EVERYWHERE these days. If you're unfamiliar, CBD is a compound found in marijuana that does not contain psychoactive properties. In other words, you can't get high from it. Enthusiasts will boast its myriad of benefits, but if we're being honest, we think the claims might be getting a little out of hand.

To top it all off, over the weekend Kim Kardashian threw a CBD, meditation and sound bath (whatever the hell that means)-themed baby shower for the birth of her fourth child, whom she and Kanye are expecting via surrogate in just a few weeks. You can watch a cringey video clip from that below.

Of course, these memes and tweets are all in good fun, and if you've had positive experiences with CBD, we'd love to know!

Congratulations, you've made it through another day. These memes, culled from the depths of Reddit, Facebook, and beyond are here to help you make it through another one.
