Topic: California Pelican

The decline of traditional college humor magazines, such as the California Pelican and Harvard Lampoon, is attributed to the rise of political correctness starting in the late 1970s. The current landscape of satire is described as limited, with outlets like The Onion struggling while the Babylon Bee remains one of the few active players in the space.

Brown Pelicans are reportedly dying in large numbers along the California coast, falling from the sky in an unusual phenomenon. This event recalls the historical ban on DDT, a pesticide manufactured by Monsanto and other firms, which was found to thin the eggshells of predatory birds and decimate their populations.
