I also think a big part of content creator burnout is the 'everything is content' mindset. If you work in a factory or an office usually you can go home and not be at work any more. When hanging out with your friends or being with your family also becomes content and therefore part of your job, the mental toll clearly becomes unbearable.

I think what you're trying to say is that the social commentary has lost a lot of nuance, as well as the general quality of the writing going down, in which case I agree. Kinda toeing the line of the 'everything is woke now' crowd though to which I would say you haven't seen/understood much Doctor Who if you think social issues are only recently a part of the stories.

For the record the Rosa Parks ep was one of my favourites for Jodie, but it's a low bar.

That's why showing the expected outcome is also very important. It can feel very verbose, but the number of times I've been unclear as to if something worked because the documentation goes on immediately to the next step without demonstrating the success/failure states is extremely frustrating.

If a foreign nation dropped a bomp on your house or rolled a tank down your street you might just start to side with the people saying they're going to get them back.

Israel's strategy can and will only lead to more Hamas support because they make no distinction between civilians and Hamas. They have never had a real plan to 'return hostages', only to wipe out the Palestinian people, because they perceive the idea of Palestinian identity to be an existential threat.

IIRC the reason for this is because synthetic vanilla flavour was one of the first to be produced, so while actual vanilla is still quite valuable, it became the go-to 'default' flavour.

Presumably it will come back as some free-to-play, live-service microtransaction-filled nightmare that can be supported by a few whales and eventually make up the cost

Nobody is attacking your free choice, they're literally trying to give you another option. That's what free choice is all about.

If you are making an informed devision to remain with windows as it gets worse and worse, then that is up to you, but don't come at people for trying to offer you an alternative just because you've made that decision.

And are you being paid more for your increased productivity, or is your company stealing that value?

Your principles are sound, but not voting in any election is imo equivalent to voting for whoever wins. If that turns out to be Trump your moral high ground has no basis because you actively enabled that result.

Voting for a candidate doesn't have to mean endorsing their entire being, it can be for many reasons, most noteably tactical voting to ensure the least bad outcome.

Interesting to see it as being freed from a constraint rather than a crutch that viewers can be relied upon to watch all episodes. IMO writing satisfying one episode arc that also makes up part of a wider arc is much more difficult, and many shows now really have just a single arc that only gets good in the last third, making it essentially a 6-8 hour movie rather than an episodic show.
