Every Dem is using a sophisticated model called ā€œPTSDā€ that subtracts 5 points from every red state Dem and 10 for Maine and South Carolina

This has turned into kind of a weird election. And this is just based on social media, not any reporting. But based on vibes from Republicans, you'd expect Democrats to end up with 55 Senate seats. But based on the vibes from Democrats, you'd expect 50.500001.

Obama is now our Grandpresident. He doesn't president us directly, but shows up every now and then with jokes and stories and little gifts, and it really pisses off Trump when we ask if we can just stay and live with Obama instead.

BREAKING: Anderson Cooper just aired a montage of Trump obsessing over the attractiveness of several men heā€™s campaigned for. Youā€™re not alone if youā€™ve noticed a pattern. Wow.

SNL took a commercial for a real psoriasis medication and turned it into a story about a mysterious force that may have existed before humanity. Ryan Gosling, Sarah Sherman and Ashley Padilla helped turn ā€œOtezlaā€ into one of those sketches that gets more ridiculous the longer you watch. Hereā€™s how it works.

Reacher getting renewed for Season 6 while Season 5 is still in production is insane Amazon found a formula where a 240-pound guy walks into a small town, punches four corrupt guys in a diner, refuses to elaborate, and gets back on a Greyhound bus and they are going to run that exact plot until the sun explodes
