    Also his name is Caleb Williams, which let some trolls give Chicago fans heart attacks with the headline "Caleb Williams arrested."

    For the Dune memes, obviously.

    But for a more earnest answer: it's still the best place to find raw video of political happenings. Not some news article that comes out 24 hours later that summarizes what was said in a disjointed fashion, just a straight clip of the speech/debate/interview/etc with no adornment.

    I thought the meme was about the worm in RJK Jr's head.

    it'll be interesting to see what kinda shit trump tries to pull this time. Everyone around here seems to be in a bit of fear, but I'm of the belief that if he had any shot of doing anything stupid it would have been while he was in office. Got a feeling they'll be a bit less lenient this time around

    I'd love to see the internal polling that leads him to these freak outs.

    I'm right there with you in hating him, and I was thinking about it today that as much as I hate him and what he has done to people -- I've been an outcast with my inlaws for the last decade because they're all MAGAtrash and therefore think everyone outside of that cult is a moron -- I also hate that we will never get our celebratory "okay bad guy gone" moment. Like the single best outcome of Kamala winning would be for trump to go away and resume boring politics. But that wouldn't feel good you know? I know intellectually that we can't act crazy and celebrate and rub it in people's faces, but I would be lying to say I didn't want a bit of revenge for the shit they did to us all that time. I can only imagine how women and minorities and those more directly impacted feel.

    Maybe my outlet, assuming she wins, will be to celebrate by wearing my "I voted" sticker during my next marathon. Maybe I'll go drive one of the main streets with the rest of the city honking the car horn per our usual impromptu celebration protocol. Sadly, I do believe there will be violence to some extent and in some places. @Nettdata has the right idea with the popcorn

    In a similar vein, if there is any sort of “trump on video hand-raping a minor” video, or a “trump on mic dropping the n-word” clip, it’s coming out tomorrow so that it runs the news all weekend. But if they had it, it would’ve come out in 2020. Unless it happened in the last four years.

    I'm in a weekly group for addicts. The psychiatrist, an Indian immigrant, brought up the election and started asking who people were going to vote for. He is a Trump supporter. It was so uncomfortable for myself and one other guy, from what I could judge from reactions. Everyone else jumped at the chance to let people know who they planned to vote for. It was about 50/50, between the two candidates, in case you want to know what addicts favor politically.

    I'm sick of politics being brought up in places it shouldn't.

    A group for addicts actually sounds like an appropriate place for trump supporters
