That means either Fallon takes a major cut in salary—or the show gets canceled. Have you no experience in show business?

Luckily, the Frank family got the copyright renewed—so we can continue reading the Diary well into the twenty-first century!

Come on, Professor, The actual scientific question is: How many PhD students have you supervised who had a brain tumor? And we already know the answer to THAT question . God, academia is in a far worst state than I initially imagined!

I think the reason is that Jason appeared to solve a few DEI problems at one go. But elements of the backstory are still unclear. One or two persons were either naive, incompetent or corrupt.

Well, Jason states that his brain tumor was so debilitating that he “couldn’t remember anything” about his viva. youtu.be/OxhxHU44lGY?...

Bill is your typical old White man. Wait—but isn’t that also a good description of YOU? Am I missing something?

“Juries have the power to incarcerate, so they should have a very high standard of proof. Members of the public have far less power, and should ergo have a much lower standard of proof.” Makes sense now. Carry On Camping, Sergeant!

Are you kidding me? How many doctoral students have you supervised? It’s obvious evidence that he is a fantasist.

I think the plot runs deeper than that. Someone important is his manager. That’s not just your local Cambridge lawyer. Millionaires use them.

How on Earth can he afford it? (I would bet that Jason is NOT a Private Eye reader, which makes it all the more mysterious.)

You’re joking, right? You really think this guy wrote his doctoral thesis while dealing with a brain tumor?

It’s okay, though. I’m sure the vast majority will have no problems with the scrutiny. Great scholars are honest and upright.

Nothing. And not all of them are racists. Some of them can see Jason is a fantasist.

If they fire him, that won’t stop our Jason. He will just become an Olympic marathon runner! They are jealous because he has so many talents.

Why are they attacking him? Don’t they know Jason had to deal with a BRAIN TUMOR while he was writing his thesis?

I think this is a positive development. Children are not old enough to deal with this kind of politico-sexual indoctrination. Parents must always decide what is in the best interests of their children.

He was Karl Marx's son-in-law, having married his second daughter, Laura. At the age of 69, he and 66-year-old Laura died together in a suicide pact.

Most recently, the term “Stockholm Syndrome” has been revived by alt rock band, The Strokes, whose lead singer, Julian Casablanca, utters these words in a somewhat enigmatic fashion toward the end of their 2020 single, “The Adults Are Talking”.
