I'm going to search my timeline to make sure I have that right.
Right, what's a little sweater sniffing between sworn enemies?

He also looked tired and unengaged.
I thought so, too. But I also think the debates won't end up swaying any voters, so I'm staying hopeful. And refreshing 538 a lot.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
I wish Sullivan would get over his race shit. It would help his writing enormously.
Oh yeah. And his women shit.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
I read somewhere today that the challenger tends to have the advantage in the first debate. Hopefully that was the case here.

I heard that Obama was in a NATO meeting all day. Is this true?

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
Can a debate tank an election? I haven't been able to watch it yet, and people appear to be in mourning.

I don't know if that's poor scheduling, or deliberate ballsiness, or what.
Debates too scary for you? Watch Supernatural instead.
