***********************************************

—While doors blow out of 737s and planes collide on American runways, the Federal Aviation Administration is focused on hiring those with "severe intellectual disabilities," "psychiatric disability," and "dwarfism." You know, for diversity!

—Disaffected viewer comments on wokery, where it came from, and how it's going. Is it peaking? Is it here to stay? And when did it start anyway?

—Mourning the false parent: viewer Johnathan asked for some discussion on facing the "death" of an illusion. When we awaken to the reality of who our broken parents are, we grieve a death of someone who never existed.
