Kinda in love with the idea that different places on other sides of the world can look so similar. Something something universal human experiences

Like. Kyrgyzstan and Switzerland?

Miami and the Gold Coast (in Aus)

New Zealand and Oregon

The great plains and the Russian steppe

India and fiji

Gonna consolidate a couple additions/recommendations from others

Napa Valley, California and Tuscany, Italy

Appalachians in America and the Grampians in Australia

Black sand beach in Iceland and New Zealand

Aurora borealis and australis

Congo and Amazon rainforest/river

desert roads in Australia, South Africa, Argentina, and Mexico

Mountains in France and Korea

Call that shit Biomes

your favorite youtubers and content creators are about to be offered some tantalizing tv/streaming deals so we're all about to find out who the real working class allys are

someone's gonna get cancelled doing this and they're gonna cry crocodile tears over how difficult it is to make a living as a content creator and i'm telling you right now we are NOT going to buy it, got it? scabs deserve no sympathy

It is hard making a living being a quote unquote "content creator" still not an excuse to be a scab

This.

Trying to make a living from YouTube is like constantly running along the edge of a knife in clogs, it is incredibly stressful, it is mentally destructive and you do a truly obscene amount of work for genuinely very little compensation relative to the hours put in.

A big one-time payout from a streaming deal from some desperate studio jackoff could be life-changing, but it does not come for fucking free. The money they are offering you is money they have ripped directly from the hands and mouths of other creatives.

If you saw someone rip food out of someone else's hands and then offer it to you, you wouldn't fucking take it, would you? If you have a shred of decency you'll tell the guy to give the fucking food back and go get fucked. And if you were the one getting food ripped out of your hands, you'd reasonably expect the people around you to have that same solidarity with you and not accept it.

The industry will try to abstract this as much as possible - they're doing it in the press right now, "oh it's just a bunch of rich, selfish Hollywood elites making a play for more money!" is EXPLICITLY an attempt to get you to see the union members as something other than your fellow workers - and they'll try to pull shit like "oh the strike has nothing to do with you, you're not a member of the union and you won't see the benefits so why should you sacrifice this opportunity for them" and so on.

They're trying to make the issue more distant and abstract, to alienate you from your fellow human beings. And in response we must make it closer and more concrete.

The money they offer to a scab is taken from the hands of a union member. They are offering you a union member's student loan payments, their rent, their food budget, their kids' college funds.

Do not take it. It is not and can never be worth it.

i feel like people are forgetting that the sag and wga strikes lasting for months on end with no meaningful resolution is not only detrimental to writers and actors but every other person who works on a film set. there’s no vfx work right now. my company is one of the last ones working for effects here in LA. i was out to beer with my friends who work for marvel in post and more than half are worried about getting laid off soon if they haven’t been already. not just the writers and actors are going to lose their houses. grips and set dressers and gaffers and literally anyone else are also going to go broke. this is a massive industry in a massive city (predominantly LA, but obviously there are other locations ((canada/atlanta/etc))) where the cost of living is ridiculously high. studios are effectively dooming anyone who works in the industry to lose everything

if there aren’t writers to write, then there aren’t things for actors to act in, then there’s not a job for a dp or wardrobe or transpo. it’s getting weird out here.

very funny that an older woman living alone with a bunch of cats was always such a negative stereotype. god forbid women experience peace

imo if you’re going to call yourself queer and seek out queer community, you need to let go of the idea that the way people identify, present, and choose to interact with other queer people can be labeled and explained. queerness is about saying “fuck societal norms” and sometimes those societal norms include what you think lesbians, gay men, trans people, women, etc. look like, act like, sleep with, etc. queerness is in direct opposition to hard lines and strict definitions. if you are uncomfortable with that, you’re probably not ready to fully immerse in the queer community. get used to being confused and freaked out. that’s the point. celebrate it.
