I was waiting breathlessly for someone to explain the earbuds thing I kept hearing about. I was worried as I kept reading your piece but like the true connoisseur you are, you saved the best for last. Maybe people are looking at this wrong. Instead of communicating with K, the earbuds were used to blast Trump with some sort of debilitating “energy draining “ force to make him lose his thought process and speak about rally sizes instead of economics, immigration, or anything else anymore might care about.

It’s getting harder to determine who believes what anymore, irregardless of how stupid the topic is. I thought Putin talking about Kamala was clearly a troll. He framed it as he was doing so because Biden told him to. He talked about how her “infectious laugh” meant she might now sanction so hard. Even the moderator and people there were laughing.

But we quickly moved to eating dogs and cats. I wondered where that MAGA cat sweater came from. Apparently my cat must have ordered one.

Interestingly enough, in the real world, no one I’ve talked to regardless of political affiliation sawthe debate as anything other than surprise over how it went. Begrudgingly appreciative of Kamala’s effort and surprise Trump fell into all her predictable traps. Yours was the best commentary I’ve read…but I knew it would be.
