Is the network objection that it doesn't allow them to track live + x days ratings like DVRs do?
That's at least part of it.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
Oh, hey: Musicians hating on Thatcher, through the years:
The very first thing I thought of when I heard the news was Elvis Costello's Tramp The Dirt Down. (Shipbuilding, incidentally, is one of my absolute favourite Costello songs.)

ND,
I have been reading about Jindal. His tax plans were completely insane and thoroughly misguided. I am glad the GOP business sector was against it because it is unclear if anything would have deterred him otherwise.

Elvis Costello's Tramp The Dirt Down
Oh, I'd forgotten that song. It's a good one. I was reminded of Sinead O'Connor's Black Boys on Mopeds, which isn't as pointedly about Thatcher as Costello's.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Well, interview went well but there are already plans to offer the position to someone else, so I am a Plan B, or if the temp assignment lasts long enough potentially to be converted to permanent down the road (or if the higher-ups okay more hiring in this department meanwhile). So, long-term maybe positive but short-term kinda meh.

Jindal is totally out of his mind, it's frightening.

Sorry to hear that, ~t. Fingers crossed for the long term.

My cat just drank from the cup of oolong tea I made for myself. Silly cat. It won't hurt her, will it?

Me also. Serious vitriol.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
