Some call it The Oscars, others The Academy Awards, but host Chris Rock has an even better title.

The 2016 Academy Award nominations, announced Thursday, revealed only white performers were nominated in the acting categories. Sadly, the lack of diversity has been a recurring theme with the show. And the new host couldn’t resist calling it out with a perfect tweet: 

!!!!!ChrisRockTweet1.

ABC
Something tells us Rock’s jokes are going to have a theme this year.
