I have GOT to unsubscribe from this community until after the election. In the 90s I could laugh at how absurd the stories were, and how only stupid people could think it was real.

But this......we now live in an absurd reality where I'm sure Fox News could legit run with this headline. How do you run a news satire website, when life itself is a satire of itself???

I'm mentally exausted. Good thing this election will be over soon.
