This was the first I've heard of this but apparently SAG-AFTRA would like cosplayers not to dress up as characters from Live Action media

as im sure most of you know, a while back i got to design this very cool black parade themed shaker charm for the @mcrvenomzine charity project!

and now that the zine has opened for leftover merch sales, i figured it would be a good time to finally make a proper post for it 🕯🖤

btw -- if you want a copy of this charm, the only way you can yet it is through the venom zine, and they currently have a limited amount left in stock so snag one while you can!!

Our shop is officially open again with limited stock left after our 2nd print preorders are all shipped out! Some products are far more limited than others, so act fast if there was something you wanted pretty badly. Proceeds still going to Trans Law Center :) Thank you!

Hello folks! It took a bit of extra time to get every 2nd print preorder mailed out, but now we’re ready to release everything left tomorrow, July 14, at 5PM EST.

There will no longer be bundles, but all merch is up in limited stock. Thank you always so much!

I've had some people ask how they can buy the black parade shaker charm i made -- this is how!! 🖤🖤

[ID. Three pictures of a square Fall Out Boy-themed quilt hung on a fence. The front is the smiley/frowny face logo from So Much (For) Stardust, with a black half that is frowning and the white half smiling. The background is also a black/white split, inverted from the logo. It is quilted with a black and white variegated thread in a spiral around the logo, and hand quilting within the logo reads "What would you trade the pain for?" in black or white thread to blend in. The back of the quilt is made up of different shades and prints of purple fabric in a gemlike quarter square triangle pattern. The quilt is bound in alternating black and white. In order, the photos show the quilt's front, back, and a close up of the front with a corner folded up to show the back. End ID.]

amptp’s bluffing by the way

[image transcript: a thread from twitter user David Slack @slack2thefuture, quote-retweeting a Deadline article titled "Hollywood Studios' WGA Strike Endgame is to Let Writers Go Broke":]

"And right on cue, here's the inevitable Deadline article claiming that the AMPTP and their CEO bosses are readyto wait us out and let us "go broke."

They're not. They can't. This is studio propaganda, and here's why. 🧵

In the increasingly mega-merged and hedgefundified Hollywood, these companies live or die on their quarterly earnings reports. It only takes one bad quarter for their stock price to plunge, putting the company and the CEO's job in jeopardy.

But their stock prices are holding steady, right? Right. For now. Because our industry is a pipeline that starts with writers. The shows and movies they're releasing now are shows we started making for them 4-12 quarters ago. But what happens when that pipeline runs dry?

What happens is they run out of product. No new shows in streaming to drive and sustain subscribers. No new shows in broadcast and ad-supported to bring in ad revenue.

No shows, no money.

No money, bad earnings report.

Bad earnings report, bye-bye stock price.

Bye-bye CEO.

After 70+ days with no writers to create their product for them, the pipeline is running dry.

Their stock price isn't tanking yet. But if they don't make a deal with us, it will.

And they know it.

If they make a deal soon, they might be able to weather it. Stretch out releases. Rush some new stuff through.

But the longer they keep us out, the longer that pipeline runs dry, the more unavoidable a catastrophic dip in high-quality shows becomes.

And they know it.

So yeah, the studios are planting articles in the trades that make it sound like they're so determined not to pay us the 0.02% of company revenue we're asking for that they're willing to hold out forever.

Bullshit.

I'm sure the AMPTP bosses would love to break our union. But they love their jobs more. They love money more. The can't make that money without us.

And they know it.

Ignore the trades, walk the line, stand together, and win. #WGAStrong

jesus fucking christ

"i wish i could do something 😔 / i wish the wga had a kickstarter or a gofundme, i would throw money at it" good news! it's amazing how you can literally go onto the wga strike website or the wgawest linktree from their twitter and find links to support writers and other workers affected by the strike

if you people keep making posts admonishing someone for not aging in a way that's palatable to you and/or implying traits of aging are indicative of someone being a bad person i'm going to steal something out of your house
