Set list: What should moderator Chris Wallace ask the two presidential candidates tonight? We have some ideas, ranging from “What would you do about climate change, seeing as it’s an existential crisis and all?” to “Why don’t people like you, Donald Trump?”

One-trick ponies: Jim Newell subjected himself to the viewing of four down-ballot debates to see how Democratic candidates for Senate are using Donald Trump’s unpopularity against their Republican opponents. It sounds like it got pretty awkward.

“Your greedy side”: Luke O’Neil files a report from the scene of the Harvard service workers’ strike and finds that the sympathy of students—half of undergrads have signed a petition in support—is one of the strike’s key assets.

Not for a while: Legal weed is, pardon me, on fire, garnering more support in a recent poll than either Hillary Clinton or Donald Trump. Despite that, we still won’t get nationwide legailzation for about eight years yet, Jordan Weissmann predicts.

For fun: Subpar movie; funny review.

Run run run,
