I don't know about science fiction authors, but I feel bad for parody sites like The Onion. I guess it all started with 2016 election - when reality is this absurd, how can outlets like The Onion make a living? Slapping at Oscar for a stupid joke, Congresswoman going on and on about public urination, Billionaire buying a social media company for tens of Billions, ex-president spending insane amount of time testing insulting nick names....

What a bizarre time to live in
