Why do they keep trying to shove weather down our throats?

Look, I consider myself ameteorological. I try not to pay attention to that crap because I know that even if I kept up with everything it's not like anything I could do could change anything. But lately it's just. fucking. everywhere, even in what should be escapist entertainment. Entire sporting events have even been canceled on account of weather. Worse, they even have a "Winter" Olympics now.

It's in practically every game that has an outdoor component. Stardew Valley is practically unplayable.

And don't tell me to just read a book. There's a reason they call it the pathetic fallacy. "It was a dark and stormy night." Oh my god, shut the fuck up, no one wants to hear your goddamn weather report. Leave it to the professionals so they can be safely ignored. This is why I have to set my device calendars eleven days in the future so they can't bombard me with the current temperature at their corporate headquarters every time I turn on the screen.
