#support the strikers

[iww-gnv]

Major films in production including the Avatar and Gladiator sequels are looking likely to be affected by Hollywood actors taking strike action. Promotional events such as red-carpet premieres will also be affected, such as Disney film Haunted Mansion, released later this month. Events including the Emmys and Comic-Con may be rescheduled or scaled back. In the industry's biggest shutdown for over 60 years, some 160,000 performers stopped work at midnight in LA. The announcement followed similar strike action from the Writers Guild of America (WGA), and brought most US film and TV productions to a halt.

Seeing people say dumb shit like “ i dont know how you expect me to support some hollywood strike when teachers are paid so little” first of all both writers and teachers should have livable wages and second of all YOU PEOPLE ARE SO DAMN CLOSE.

The problem is the system. The problem is capitalism

Every time I see people calling strikers selfish or complaining about how much it impacts them or how much it inconveniences them that other people are protesting for worker's rights

Like do they not realise that any happiness or comfort they have experienced in life is built on a foundation of worker's rights and former successful strikes and protests?

Freelancers take a while to get "desperate".

I had a bad week and didn't get everything done that I was meant to and one of my supervisors just replied with "Do not worry we all have good and bad weeks" on Friday evening

Compassionate academics are the best and we must cherish them.

Yay the WGA strike has reached a peaceful agreement. Please continue to support the SAG-AFTRA strikes, especially now that the Video Game Actors have just voted to strike.

Good luck to all who are striking in any profession, anywhere.

(And a fuck you to Thatcher who made striking in the UK so difficult.)

No AI shows at all!

Just so we're all on the same page with the writer's strike.

If during the strike, it's announced about AI generated shows. We are not watching them. Not even out of curiosity. Let them fail every AI generated show they try make.

The human voice can not be replaced by AI. Don't let them try.

Sera Gamble talking about the absolutely crucial roles that writers have on set!

As a writer-y person who might’ve been interested in positions like this stuff this is important to know, pass it on.

Solidarity from PCS!

a quick word about the writers guild strike, for those of you who currently AREN'T guild members but would like to be one day: the WGA has always strongly enforced its right to ban from future membership any non-member who crosses the picket line and engages in scab writing, aka writing for any of the struck companies during the WGA strike.

so if you're seeing job openings for screenwriters at places like netflix, amazon, paramount, etc and you're thinking "hey, maybe i'll apply and get my foot in the door," just know that you WILL be scabbing and you WILL be barred from ever obtaining WGA membership. permanently.

learn more about the strike on the WGA contract site.

I feel like Ashrah would unironically hang “live, laugh, love” in her room or something, not knowing how socially unacceptable that is

lost my mind every time he showed up what the fuck was he doing here (affectionately)

They just don't get it - the writers and actors on strike are the Golden Goose, and these idiots are trying to starve it into submission.....

It's crazy that these strikes are happening given that all the writers and actors are asking for is less than 0.3% of the revenue these studios make.

HAPPY NEW YEAR 2024! My 3rd fanart of Joker from Persona 5. I didnt realize I drew him so differently. they all look the same in my head when I think about the older drawings. I like the details in 2023 but I'm learning to be kinder to myself with my art this 2024. the mental anxiety involved with trying to be perfect is not worth it.
