The world has been waiting for someone to finally puncture the bombast and stupidity of Trump. But who woulda thunk it? It wasn't the Democrats. It wasn't Colbert. It wasn't Jimmy Kimmel. Hats off to the Iranian troll army.

The main problem I have with "streaming" is that there aren't just two or three streams--its now a delta.
So I can seldom remember where some show I like is streaming, much less when something new is coming up that I want to keep track of. Not to mention that there's no such things as a "TV season" anymore, with shows starting and ending at random, and then pausing for sports. We tend to save episodes of everything now to binge-watch because we are so easily confused anyway.
Here's an example of the frustration:

Lasers were a huge scientific breakthrough and now we use them to play with cats. Computers were also a huge scientific breakthrough and now we use them to look at pictures of cats. In other words, science was made for cats.
