If you care at all about the petty micro-dramas of celebrity life—don’t give me that look, I goddamn know you do—you’ve already heard that Kim Kardashian had the receipts to prove that Taylor Swift was warned about and approved the personally provocative lyrics to Kanye West‘s “Famous.”

But call me jaded; I just didn’t find anything about this beef all that juicy. I couldn’t escape the feeling that it was a little bit forced, a little desperate. And, as many on Twitter were quick to point out, there are far more important things to worry about at the moment. Here are just a few:
1) Things
https://twitter.com/kyraa_k20/status/755087162119446528
It’s true. Did you hear about the things? Very important.
2) Issues

Arguably as important as the things are the issues.
3) Stuff
There’s more important stuff in the world than the whole Taylor Swift drama

There’s no denying the importance of stuff.
4) Shit
fucksake, there’s so much more important shit going on in the world other than just what kim k’s doing to slag Taylor swift off
— samph (@sampadgey) July 18, 2016
Shit is among the most important things (or “stuff”) I can think of.
5) Shit Happening

Also important: shit happening.
6) Finding a Pikachu
I don’t give two shots about Taylor swift or Kim k. Y’all shut up! ITS A DISTRACTION FROM THE MORE IMPORTANT THINGS!! LIKE FINDING A PIKACHU
— Alicia Marie Ramos (@mariemoonpie) July 18, 2016
It’s frankly offensive that anyone would consider anything more important.
7) Matters
Cant believe everyones wanking over that #taylorswift and #KanyeWest shit. More important matters in the world people..!!!

Not to be confused with “issues,” we cannot forget the importance of “matters.”
8) Stories

SMH at anyone who thinks stories aren’t important.
9) News
https://twitter.com/milkyfresh416/status/755005376479780864
I actually think news and Taylor are equally important, but OK.
10) Actual News

Meanwhile, actual news is definitely more important.
11) Something

Something may be the most important of all.
