With all the money, glitz, glamour, and constant exposure, it can be easy to forget that celebrities - even the ones we see every week on our favorite shows - are regular people.

At least its easy to forget until they start bickering about politics back and forth on social media like everyone's drunk uncle and we, the fans, are left standing around watching like

Vampire Diaries fans got an eyeful the night of the Vice Presidential debate. Stars Paul Wesley (who plays Stefan) and Matthew Davis (who took on the role of Alaric) both tuned in to watch Mike Pence and Kamala Harris discuss the issues. Davis, a long-time vocal Trump supporter, posted a now-deleted tweet that criticized the moderator for her behavior.

Davis believed moderator Susan Page was making it a point to interrupt Pence and not "let him finish his point."

Paul Wesley saw things a little differently. He responded to Davis's tweet by quipping:

"It would also be nice if Pence answered the question he was originally asked rather than deflect."

Things got personal from there. The two stars went back and forth a few times while fans watched (and took screenshots)

Davis: "Paul likes to vote for criminals and losers just like he did in 2016. Your opinion on the matter carries little weight as far as I am concerned. Next."
Wesley: "You're mistaken. I didn't vote for trump in 2016"

To get this next tweet, you need a bit of understanding about the show. So for you non-fans; Alaric is the character Davis plays. Alaric is a human vampire-hunter. Vervain is an herb which is used to weaken and kill vampires; especially potent when ingested.

That's really all you need to know to catch what goes down from here. So back to the show we go.

We return to Wesley, who decided to address the show's fans; as he knew they were watching the men spar back and forth.

Wesley: "Guys Alaric drank some vervain, he's losing it"
Davis: "Yawn"
The fans: "Ummm... Alaric is human so vervain wouldn't affect him."
Wesley: "Yea but that stuff is strongggg."

Things did eventually end cordially between the two men. Fans, of course, really wanted to talk about what in the world they just witnessed.












So yeah ... 2020, amirite?

MAGA Senator Slammed After Scolding Americans For Whining About High Gas Prices Amid Iran War—And Wow

Kansas Republican Senator Roger Marshall chastised Americans for complaining about high gas prices and insisted they should consider that their "national security is even more important" than whatever blows are being dealt to their wallets at the gas pump.

Consumer prices are up 3.3% compared to a year ago, largely fueled by a surge in energy costs. The energy index jumped 10.9% in a single month as oil and gas prices climbed sharply. Amid the Iran war and the U.S. blockade of the Strait of Hormuz, oil has risen back to around $100 a barrel, pushing gasoline prices up by a record 25%.

Kid Goes Viral After Leaving Sweet Note On Plane For The Person Sitting In Their Seat On The Next Flight

A lot is going on in our world right now that gives us pause, and some of us might feel our hearts breaking under the weight of all of it. That makes acts of kindness, no matter how small they are, more important than ever before.

X user @oatmilkanie shouted out an unidentified child who clearly got the memo when they boarded a plane and discovered that the child had written a note for the next person to sit in their seat, directly on the paper nausea bag that's snuggled in the seat pocket in front of the passenger's knees.

Woman Creeped All The Way Out After Finding Hidden Door In The Ceiling Of Her Airbnb

A lot of us already cannot sleep well when we're visiting someone else's home or staying in a hotel, because we're uncomfortable in a different bed and maybe even a little creeped out in the unusual space.

But discovering a whole other room with a creepy door would quickly transform a space from a rental to something out of a horror movie real quick for anybody.
