It kinda was tho, having a structured viewing window means I could plan my day around it and invite friends over to watch it, and maybe I just have the TV on before it starts while I'm cooking and discover a new show I like that I would never pick out of a streaming list.

It’s hard to explain but tv was better when you couldn’t watch the show you wanted whenever you wanted to watch it and most of the shows were worse and the TVs were worse and the entire experience was worse, that’s when it was better

Talked to my dad for over an hour on the phone, discussed his military funeral plans to make sure we get it right when the time comes. Could be 12 years from now could be next week, you never know with these old codgers.

I've been sceptical about the Ocean Cleanup project for awhile and it looks like for good reason, not bringing experts on for consulting and using technology like a bandage is not fixing the root problem. We can't keep pointing at the blood and blaming the skin for the knife wound.

When I was writing this piece about the Ocean Cleanup, I had a surreal experience: They assured me that they only kill invasive species, and sent me a published paper to demonstrate that. But the paper said the opposite! I wonder how many journalists just took their word for it and didn't check?
