    My first thought when I watched the Halo TV show was that these writers need to get paid more.

      That was your first thought watching the Halo show? 😅 I mean… yeah that’s important but uhhhh… I’m not ashamed to admit that wasn’t probably my first thought.

    A century ago, workers in the wool industry rioted against the spinning jenny. In the end, they were defeated. So it will be for the writers et al. The wheel turns. Ride it or get run over.

    The idea that the current status quo is going to last even five years is laughable.
