love how terfs are using this to try and say that Soso was a based terf who hated the concept of gender identity and would totally hate dumb trannies and TIMs...
when really she was just defending herself and saying that she was pansexual.

if you see some of the shit about orange is the new black, you won't just think this, you'll know it. go ahead and dig:
kimiko glenn (brook soso) may not have been a MAIN main but she was pretty important, there was this video of her showing a residual check that came to a total of $30. articles on this talked about how some seasons actually COST her money to work on because her travel wasn't covered. either her or another almost-main said something like "imagine having to work a day job while being too famous to leave the house."
all that on one of their early flagship shows, which the then-CEO (maybe still around?) of netflix had bragged had more viewers than game of thrones.
this all gets even worse when you think back on some of the plotlines and themes you can remember if you watched it...
I actually wonder if Netflix was defrauding the WGA/SAG and that’s why they’re not negotiating.

Last I heard on supporting the strike, the unions are asking for ally's to maintain subscription services. To unsubscribe to services would be to cut the already slim royalties they are receiving that will help them wait out their slave drivers. Instead, keep consuming media in solidarity to 1) pay the actors more pennies, 2) show how much demand there is for these artists.
In December, 2020, in the depths of pandemic winter, the actress Kimiko Glenn got a foreign-royalty statement in the mail from the screen actors’ union, SAG-AFTRA. Glenn is best known for playing the motormouthed, idealistic inmate Brook Soso on the women’s-prison series “Orange Is the New Black,” which ran from 2013 to 2019, on Netflix. The orchid-pink paper listed episodes of the show that she’d appeared on (“A Whole Other Hole,” “Trust No Bitch”) alongside tiny amounts of income (four cents, two cents) culled from overseas levies—a thin slice of pie from the show that had thrust her to prominence. “I was, like, Oh, my God, it’s just so sad,” Glenn recalled. With many television and movie sets shuttered, she was supporting herself with voice-over jobs, and she’d been messing around with TikTok. She posted a video in which she scans the statement—“I’m about to be so riiich!”—then reaches the grand total of $27.30 and shrieks, “WHAT?”
The post got more than four hundred thousand likes and nearly two thousand comments, many from disbelieving fans: “Wait how is that even legal??” “how is this even real you were on one of the biggest netflix shows.” This past May, with screenwriters on strike and labor unrest sweeping Hollywood, Glenn reposted the video on Instagram, where she has almost a million followers. This time, not only fans but castmates weighed in. Matt McGorry, who played a corrections officer: “Exaccctttlllyyy. I kept my day job the entire time I was on the show because it paid better than the mega-hit TV show we were on.” Beth Dover, who played a manager at the company taking over the prison: “It actually COST me money to be in season 3 and 4 since I was cast local hire and had to fly myself out, etc. But I was so excited for the opportunity to be on a show I loved so I took the hit. Its maddening.”
Television actors have traditionally had a base of income from residuals, which come from reruns and other forms of reuse of the shows in which they’ve appeared. At the highest end, residuals can yield a fortune; reportedly, the cast of “Friends” has each made tens of millions of dollars from syndication. But streaming has scrambled that model, endangering the ability of working actors to make a living. “So many of my friends who have nearly a million followers, who are doing billion-dollar franchises, don’t know how to make rent.”
Despite the Beatlemania-like fame, many cast members had to keep their day jobs for multiple seasons. They were waiting tables, bartending. DeLaria continued doing live gigs to keep up with her rent. Diane Guerrero, who played the fashionable inmate Maritza Ramos, worked at a bar, where patrons would recognize her.
These are just some highlights, but the entire article is worth a read, especially if someone you know is (or you are) so deep into watching celebrity culture that you’re having a hard time understanding why actors could possibly want more than they’re getting now.
