2. Tilikum, the orca of Blackfish fame, has died at age 35. This is much younger than Granny who is presumed to have passed last year at age 100. Seaworld may as well be called shitworld. More here.

3. James Woolsey, former CIA director, will no longer be a senior advisor to Donald Trump. Trump knows more than the CIA anyway so we'll be fine. More here.

4.
