Greetings, internet citizens, it is I, @Scaachi, taking over BuzzFeed News' Twitter account for tonight's debate. What could possibly go wrong!??!! I am currently waiting for my green card so this, I'm sure, can only help.
What should we expect in tonight's debate? Well first, let's look at the candidates' stats:

IN THE RED CORNER, DONALD "SEVEN FIFTY" TRUMP
Height: 6'3
Age: 74
Hair: Technically in existence

IN THE BLUE CORNER, JOE "SETTLE FOR ME" BIDEN
Height: 6'0
Age: 77
Folksiness: Exhausting
What are you drinking while you watch tonight's debate?
ALRIIIIGHT, LET'S GET READY TO PABLUUUUUUUM 🥊 🥊 🥊
Just two cool dudes definitely making sense. I understand what is going on here. This is fun and I am having fun. #Debates2020
I mean, I think I speak for most women when I say that if there's anyone I want talking about abortion access, it's Joe Biden and Donald Trump.
wait what was the question?
What if instead of paying a moderator (expensive, complicated logistically) they just put a bag of flour on a chair (easy to carry, still white)?
Good news, you've survived a third of this. It's just like running a marathon: you gotta pace yourself, breathe deeply, eat energy gels, throw up maybe, I don't know, I've never run a marathon.
Who is a better moderator?

Listen, there's only 40 minutes left of this. And then like, another month. And then the rest of your life. Just gotta tough it out for the rest of your goddamn life.
You know what definitely stops the president from interrupting people? Calling him sir. Works every time. Dunked! Roasted! This is the resistance!!!
They're right, we should watch Law & Order instead.

Did we, as a community, give bath salts a fair shake? Something to consider as we wind this down.
Instead of either of these men, I think the American people should vote for raccoons to be president. My case:
1. They have people hands
2. Probably good at foreign policy
3. Can open reinforced garbage cans
4. Do not know what a Proud Boy is
5. Good at social distancing
6. Fuzzy
Who won the debate

Cruises are often marketed as a fun way to travel, but some passengers on major cruise lines such as Carnival and Disney have said in civil lawsuits that they were raped and assaulted while onboard, often times by crew members.

buzzfeednews.com/article/tomwar…
Documents reviewed by BuzzFeed News show that parents and guardians have also alleged their children were molested by crew members or other passengers.

buzzfeednews.com/article/tomwar…
According to FBI data, there have been 454 reported allegations of sex crimes on cruise ships since 2015. Experts believe the actual numbers are far higher, as many sexual assaults go unreported.

🚨 Trump says he's running for president again after spreading bullshit election fraud claims to undermine democracy for years

buzzfeednews.com/article/davidm…
Trump has been explicitly teasing his campaign for months, but after declaring his candidacy and filing his paperwork, he is an official candidate. That lets him raise money for activities like rallies, which grow his political brand and ego.
Trump’s latest bid comes as Republicans largely underperformed in the midterms. Many in the GOP blamed Trump after many of his endorsed candidates, especially those in critical races in Pennsylvania and Arizona, lost.

How much does a good life cost?

In 2010, Princeton researchers said the optimal household income for happiness was $75,000 (before taxes). Adjusted for inflation, $75,000 in 2010 is about $100,000 today. buzzfeednews.com/article/veness…
A household earning $100,000 “is middle class, but where in the middle class they fall can vary drastically” depending on where they live and how many people they’re supporting, said Catie Hogan, a financial educator at Parthean. buzzfeednews.com/article/veness…
We spoke with people around the country whose households earn roughly $100,000 about what “six-figure living” looks like today. Here’s what they had to say:

US TikTok user data has been repeatedly accessed from China, leaked audio from 80 internal meetings reveals.

Audio from more than 80 meetings contains 14 statements from nine different TikTok employees indicating that engineers in China had access to US data between September 2021 and January 2022, at the very least.

Cambodians fled genocide, bringing their trauma with them. Their children felt its rippled effects.

Now the newer generation is working to end a destructive cycle that began before they were born. ⬇️
buzzfeednews.com/article/vivian…
Take Cambodian American Ny Nourn, who came to the US with her mother when she was a child in the 1980s. Her only memories of the collective trauma were wisps of the hunger and cold in a Thailand refugee camp.

Only when Nourn was imprisoned after her abusive then-boyfriend killed a man did her mother open up about the traumas she endured keeping their family safe: land mines, trudging for days on foot past dead bodies, gang rape. buzzfeednews.com/article/vivian… A quote from Ny Nourn sayin...A split image shows a young...
