Angel: You know, I killed my actual dad. It was one of the first things I did when I became a vampire. Wesley: I hardly see how that's the same situation. Angel: Yeah. I didn't really think that one through.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

In DC or Washington State? They should come to the alumni stuff, we just did the annual boat sunset cruise it was fun!

State. Who knows what the future will bring? Having sent their fourth son (!) off to college, they are now empty nesters!

Also hi!!!

Hello!

I watched every minute of the debate and I could rewatch so many times. She had a list and she checked off every box from forcing him into the handshake at the start to having his wild rant at the end. I am over the moon. he chomped on every bit of bait she threw out. It could not have been better. With Taylor Swift frosting on top.

I watched via Twitter as per usual and it was a delight. I look forward to the many resulting memes.

The memes are brilliant. Many pet eating varieties.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

I really appreciated this.

I reviewed KD Spangler’s Bluesky thread on the debate, and I got the impression that Harris whacked Trump all over the debate stage like Serena Williams smashing a tennis ball at Wimbledon. Which was a nice thing to wake up to.

I sat through the hour-plus of descriptions, commentary, etc., then when he started the stupid lying in that stupid voice I gave up and went to bed.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

I watched Jon Stewart's debate recap, and that's all I needed to see. The look on Harris’s face when Trump was talking about immigrants eating cats was the exact same look I have when my dad starts talking about the hallucination people in his apartment.

Oh! I haven't watched that yet.

It was some good shit. She mocked the size of his rallies and said people left early because they were bored! She called him weak! She said he was fired by 81 million people!

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

No matter what vile shit Trump says, his base thinks he's the messiah.

Ugh, too true and too upsetting. The unhinged overconfidence is a PLUS for his followers, no matter what actual words come out of it.

I think Kamala finished stronger than she started, and by the end he was an incoherent rambling mess while she was looking cool and confident. Turnout is going to be the key to a win, as always. That there are more left-leaning adults of voting age in almost all states isn't in question, it's how many of them will show up.

My heart goes out to the moderators, who valiantly did their best. "Would you like to respond to...the rest of that?"

I'm hoping that the newly registered voters (most are young) and the endorsement of Taylor Swift (and her cat) will increase turnoug.

Also, I came across this comment: one cannot think the name “JD Vance” without picturing a shuddering and exhausted davenport .... which was followed by someone commenting he treats women like furniture.
