October's here! And so is another episode of Morgendorks! This week, we're looking at "Psych Therapy," wherein Helen's work is offering her the chance at a big promotion—but it comes at the cost of having to get her entire family psychologically evaluated. Meanwhile, Jane starts a webcam that offers a 24/7 glimpse into her life. Huge invasion of privacy vibes coming off of this one, folks ...

... which means it's appropriate that our cultural context this week focuses on Jennicam, a somewhat forgotten piece of internet history that presaged livestreaming, reality television, social media, and so much more. Its founder was, for a time, arguably the biggest thing the internet had to offer. Now, her online presence is virtually nonexistent. It's a fascinating tale that ties into not only this episode of Daria but also the modern internet experience as a whole!
