CNN commentator Van Jones delivered an emotional on-air response to Joe Biden's projected victory, citing the difficulty of parenting under the Trump administration.

A 2018 scientific study discussed by Brett and Heather Weinstein explains "prevalence-induced concept change," where humans expand their definition of a stimulus as it becomes rarer.

This "neurological relativism" is used to explain the rise of movements like the 1619 Project and Black Lives Matter.

A YouTube video claiming 5G radiation caused a hamster's legs to fall off is identified as a sophisticated satire or "well-poisoning" effort. The video uses the acronym "F.A.R.C.E."
