    Man, it’s been over a year since my girl left, and I still can’t watch stuff like that.

    No fucking idea how he’s able to function.

      Taking a wild guess, b/c he cares for us too. He seems to genuinely believe that he can help, by offering his voice of sanity into this hellscape world that we find ourselves in now, aka he did not just show up for his “job” but reported for duty at his station in this war against disinformation. And he is right - I find it extremely comforting, and I doubt that I am anywhere close to being alone in that:-).

        Not alone at all. It shows his humanity and his strength that he could both get the job done for us, and still be able to share what he did.

        Thanks. I really appreciate it.

        I can’t imagine being able to willpower through a day of filming like that, having to be surrounded and “on” for extended periods. The guy has nothing but respect and sympathy from me.
