What do people think? Generic slop? Well-crafted gorefest? I've seen the first one and am half way through the second.

@KatserKitty1987 (RIP) said in an old thread:

The first one was overly long and exceedingly tiring. The sets were all lit like a play and the gore is a level or extreme to where it wraps around to not being distributing. It's a shame as the killer is actually pretty cool and interesting it's just that nothing else is.

I think the clown is cool, I like his mischievous smile. The women he kills are always pretty 1D and I'm sad when I see their boobs because I want to see them but not covered in blood while they're screaming.

No, once you designate someone an "alien" towards whom you have no sense of responsibility and whose lives you're willing to destroy for the sake of your planet...then the "aliens" get to treat you the same way. Moral equivalence.

Ownership in purely factual terms means "are you able to defend it from people who want to take it from you". Everything else is contracts or window dressing.

I would rather be a hive minded Na'vi than a human. Just look at their lives man. They can fly amongst floating mountains and swim and bond with whales. Their happiness index would be higher than the US.

I strongly condemn the barbaric violence against Hindus, Christians, and other minorities who are getting attacked and looted by mobs in Bangladesh, which remains in a total state of chaos.

It would have never happened on my watch. Kamala and Joe have ignored Hindus across the world and in America. They have been a disaster from Israel to Ukraine to our own Southern Border, but we will Make America Strong Again and bring back Peace through Strength!

We will also protect Hindu Americans against the anti-religion agenda of the radical left. We will fight for your freedom. Under my administration, we will also strengthen our great partnership with India and my good friend, Prime Minister Modi.

Kamala Harris will destroy your small businesses with more regulations and higher taxes. By contrast, I cut taxes, cut regulations, unleashed American energy, and built the greatest economy in history. We will do it again, bigger and better than ever before—and we will Make America Great Again.

Also, Happy Diwali to All. I hope the Festival of Lights leads to the Victory of Good over Evil!

Vice President Harris could win the presidential election next week. But fingers in Democratic circles are already being pointed behind the scenes, in the event that she falls to former President Trump.

While some Democrats say they are increasingly hopeful that Harris will win, others have expressed mounting frustration about a string of factors that have plagued the campaign from the outset.

Fingers are being pointed at Harris and her campaign when it comes to disappointment over her messaging, particularly on the economy.

But some Democrats have already looked to pin the blame on President Biden, who some think took too long to step aside.

"People are nervous and they're trying to cover their butt and get a little ahead of Election Day," one Democratic strategist said of the sniping. "It's based on anxiety, stakes and the unique nature of this cycle.

"We didn't have a traditional process for this election. We didn't have a primary. People just had to fall in line," the strategist added, saying "it's not surprising to me" that some of the blame game is happening even before Election Day.

If Harris loses, "there will be a mad dash to assign blame," the strategist added.

The vice president's decision to pick Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz (D) as her running mate over Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro (D) surely will be second-guessed if Trump wins the Keystone State.

"[Harris] is going to look real silly for not picking Shapiro," one former aide in the Obama White House said.

A Democratic donor agreed: "I'm not sure Walz got her anything. A lot of people I'm talking to say he seems like a great guy. Would I want to have a beer with him? Absolutely. But let's face it, he wasn't a great choice."

Biden put himself squarely in the news cycle on Tuesday evening when he appeared to liken Trump supporters to garbage.

The president walked back the remarks, and the White House insisted they had been taken out of context. Either way, they stepped on a largely successful speech by Harris on the Ellipse in Washington. The speech, which Harris delivered with the White House as a backdrop, was a pivotal moment in the final stretch of the campaign because it represented her closing argument for herself and against Trump.

It is nearly impossible to believe the comments did not greatly irritate the Harris campaign, though the vice president said the issue did not come up when she spoke to Biden on Tuesday night.

"Talk about an unforced error and so close to the end," one strategist said. "How could anyone not be annoyed by that?"

On Wednesday, Harris was still cleaning up Biden's comments.

"First of all, he clarified his comments, but let me be clear. I strongly disagree with any criticism of people based on who they vote for," Harris told reporters as she departed for a three-state campaign swing.

Harris has kept Biden at a distance during the final stretch of the campaign, even as she has appeared alongside surrogates, including former President Obama. The move has irked Biden loyalists who say the president had a successful administration and should be out there — however awkward — to help campaign for his vice president.

"He should be out there," one loyalist said. "The reason she's where she is, is because of him."

But even before Biden's "garbage" comment, there were whispers he would be responsible for a Harris defeat.

These voices say Biden's withdrawal from the race in late July didn't do Harris any favors since she hasn't had enough time to properly telegraph her biography.

Others said he never should have run for reelection, and that he should have allowed the party to have a full primary to pick his successor.

The unusual part about the quiet finger pointing going on is that Harris could very well be elected the next president next week.

She leads in most national polls and continues to lead in various polls of key swing states. New CNN polling released Wednesday found Harris with a 6-point lead in Wisconsin and a 5-point lead in Michigan. The new polling found the two candidates tied in Pennsylvania.

If Harris wins all three states, she will almost certainly win the election.

"Harris is closing strong with big energy moments and rising momentum," Democratic strategist Joel Payne said. "She's the more popular candidate, she has a broader coalition and she's got a higher ceiling than Trump.

"Democratic anxiety is understandable because of the threat of a Trump second term, but there's a lot to feel good about related to Kamala Harris and Democrats up and down the ballot coming down the stretch," Payne added.

At the same time, the race is incredibly close, meaning either candidate has a strong chance of winning and neither side can feel all that certain.

That creates nervousness and paranoia, a perfect atmosphere for second-guessing and backbiting.

There will be second-guessing if Trump loses, too.

The former president has doubled down on caustic speech in a bid to bolster his support among men, which could lose him critical female voters — where Harris enjoys a large lead.

If Harris wins, Republicans will second-guess their decision to ride with Trump through a third presidential cycle. They'll also wonder why he had to hold that rally on Sunday at Madison Square Garden, where a comedian's off-color jokes about Latinx and Puerto Rico won negative attention.

"It's a terrible look for the campaign," one Republican strategist said. "He should stick to the message and only the message. If we go off of it, he'll lose."

    The State judge allowed the status quo to continue.
    Removal to federal court is a routine procedure when there is diversity jurisdiction.
    His pledge asks people to affirm the First and Second Amendment to the Constitution, and therefore should not be seen as politically biased. In other words, someone could sign the pledge, vote for Harris, and get the $1 million prize.
