Shockingly, Louis CK's Stand-Up Shows In Kyiv Today Have NOT Been Cancelled
Well, it looks like we're gonna have to get used to making jokes about dark things from now on (like we weren't doing that already, ha) - so, with that in mind, it is absolutely hilarious that comedian Louis CK is performing shows in Kyiv today and tomorrow.
Yes, like the capital of Ukraine, currently under seige by Russia. That Kyiv.
It's gotta be weird. Who is gonna show up to that show? We guess some people, especially now that tickets have apparently gone down to the US equivalent of, like, $12. Inevitably, there are probably at least a few people going, "well, we're being invaded either way; why not see a show?"
This makes at least two American entertainers who are currently on the ground in Ukraine - the other is Sean Penn, who has already gotten to work filming a documentary about this "conflict." This is especially concerning as the Ukranian President has apparently ordered that no man between age 18 and 60 is to leave the country - though we're not sure that command can extend to non-citizens.
Harrowing events all around. At least the tweets are kinda funny.
