Well this is another turn. Still some way to go regulatorywise, but we'll see.

Wouldn't mind Star Trek with HBO budgets though.

I don't regret enjoying media from people I found out are bad later, but there are still so many good people out there that I've got no problem moving on. There's no reason to support, work with, do anything with bad people in arts since there are so many creative people who aren't shits still out there.
