Always nice when math helps make it all the more clear how ridiculously reasonable the worker demands are.
This is what the studios have brought everything to a grinding halt for.

oh youre being funny? youre making fun of twitter? youre soooooooo fucking funny. youre copying their layout and trying to appeal to their usebase but youre gonna make fun of it? youre going to drive away your loyal userbase because you cant make money off them in the same way that you can the ex-twitter userbase? youre SO fucking funny. youre SO ironic. did you appeal to the 7 year old ipad babies? did you get the clicks on your ads that severely limit your scrolling time? do you feel better about yourselves? im driving to your houses.

"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

Hi! I know you may not give much a fuck, but seeing all this stuff about the writer's strike and streaming services going under really reminds me of by far the two writers and animators least deserving of a union:
Roger Black and Waco O'Guin
Please, for the love of God, help me spread the word of their shows so that we can tank their ratings on IMDB and Rotten Tomatoes and give us a chance to save shows that wish to innovate and have quality instead of being cookie cutter black comedies like Paradise PD or Big Mouth!
there is no such thing as "least deserving of an union" (outside of cops, fuck police unions), what are you talking about
hey man i think you went on a date with a straight up movie villain
Executives at the National Eating Disorders Association (NEDA) decided to replace hotline workers with a chatbot named Tessa four days after the workers unionized.
NEDA, the largest nonprofit organization dedicated to eating disorders, has had a helpline for the last twenty years that provided support to hundreds of thousands of people via chat, phone call, and text. “NEDA claims this was a long-anticipated change and that AI can better serve those with eating disorders. But do not be fooled—this isn’t really about a chatbot. This is about union busting, plain and simple,” helpline associate and union member Abbie Harper wrote in a blog post.
According to Harper, the helpline is composed of six paid staffers, a couple of supervisors, and up to 200 volunteers at any given time. A group of four full-time workers at NEDA, including Harper, decided to unionize because they felt overwhelmed and understaffed.
“We asked for adequate staffing and ongoing training to keep up with our changing and growing Helpline, and opportunities for promotion to grow within NEDA. We didn’t even ask for more money,” Harper wrote. “When NEDA refused [to recognize our union], we filed for an election with the National Labor Relations Board and won on March 17. Then, four days after our election results were certified, all four of us were told we were being let go and replaced by a chatbot.”
