You know, I am in complete support of the Writers' and Actors' Strikes.

Especially now with all these Trump indictments and the buffoonery of his supporters, there is plenty of entertainment to be had.

(Honestly, though, I miss being able to "share" these events with the likes of Colbert, Meyers and Oliver.)

...the immediate consequences of a writers' and actors' strike doesn't hit so hard, which unfortunately makes it possible for these strikes to drag out a long, long, looooooong time.
