Now that Kamala Harris has been coronated the Democratic Socialist designee for nomination as their candidate for President of these United States, after that political party's contrived primary process "democratically" elected Joseph R. Biden: What are your feelings about this party's progressive posture within their self-styled exercise of "Saving Democracy for America," and how truly critical the outcome of this presidential election will be?

10% I am ecstatic that this "Democracy's" First partially Black, First partially Indian, First female Co-Parent, and this nation's primary necessity is to her elect our First woman president.

25% I really do not care about all these "Firsts." I will continue to pray, and work for this Representative Republic to elect someone competent, and brilliantly patriotic to be our next president.

65% I will never vote for any politician that "first" does not have the core values to understand how dire this Constitutional Republic's situation has become.

Sad: Casting Director For New Spiderman Movie Unable To Find Actor Who Hasn't Already Played Spiderman

    HOLLYWOOD     According to a Variety report published on "coming attractions" in the superhero film genre, the casting director for an upcoming Spider-Man film project has been unable to find an actor who hasn't already portrayed the beloved web-slinger.

    "Say, what about Andrew Garfield?" casting director Jerrick Jones asked as he snapped his fingers. "He's a little old, but he can skew young and - oh no, I forgot about those two Amazing Spider-Man movies. Ugh!"

    "Curse you, Andrew Garfield!"

    Sources reveal the film rights to Spider-Man are split between every movie studio on the planet and they all want a piece of the pie. Sony and Disney famously made a deal to bring a version of Spider-Man to the Marvel Cinematic Universe while Sony continues to make animated features and movies involving other Spider-Man characters like Venom. Other studios, meanwhile, may only have the rights to a version of Spider-Man that performs sweeping kicks or who rides a segway to his job at The Daily Bugle.

    "There are over 7,000 Spider-Man films in pre-production at any given time," admitted Jones. "It makes it really hard to keep track of who hasn't already played Spider-Man."

    Jerrick Jones isn't the only one struggling. A whole team of casting directors work round the clock searching for new actors to be Spider-Man. Some agencies have given up looking for anyone right for the part and instead search for actors they are sure have never played Spider-Man at all.

    "That's how I famously cast John Mulaney as Spider-Ham," Jerrick Jones said proudly. "But every new Spider-Man I recruit just makes my job harder."

    At publishing, unable to find anyone new, producers were forced to draw a name out of a hat of previous Spider-Man actors and picked Tom Holland again. "Oh, I guess it has to be a follow-up to No Way Home then. Someone call the girl from Dune!"
