What 5 things do you like in a girl?
I was told that “each of my fingers” is too vulgar of a response
I hate that character trope where they're a severely anxious person with a "nervous stutter" and they have a big arc where they gain courage and cure their stutter so shoutout to people who just have a stutter as a feature of their voice regardless of how insecure they are I love you and if anyone ever tells you you just need to gain self-confidence I wish you the self-confidence to bite out their throat beast style
showing up at my neighbour's house tearfully, shaking and vulnerable, like "I- I d-didn't know w-where else to go" and they're like huh. and I'm immediately normal a milisecond later like yo can I get a cup of sugar

While the SAG-AFTRA strike is great news for the future of the industry, and worth celebrating, let's not forget people's livelihoods are on the line and act accordingly.
[image ID: piles of dozens of SAG-AFTRA ON STRIKE! picket signs. end ID]
Union members in the WGA and SAG-AFTRA are making this sacrifice for the very survival of the industry. There's a lot of glee at the strike, which makes total sense because we hope it will ultimately lead to the studios being forced into a position to re-negotiate for a better deal.
But in the midst of all this, please don't forget that there are real people forgoing paychecks and income for the big picture of this strike. And the studios are going to squeeze them as hard as they can, leading to real human suffering.
What can we, as fans and audiences, do to stand in solidarity?
-Be excited about the right things—halting studio production and forcing the studios into a better deal!—and not the wrong things (show cancellations, workers losing jobs—i.e. things that hurt the workers.) The important thing to remember is that the enemy here is the top studio executives, NOT the people who actually labor on your favorite media.
-Correct misinformation and disinformation whenever possible. Don't let anti-WGA propaganda go unanswered. Get your information directly from the WGA and SAG-AFTRA's official channels if possible, or their negotiation committee members. We're always happy to fact check!
-Support financially if at all possible (and if not, boost donations and fundraisers!) Picketers are choosing to participate in a work stoppage that will have immediate and devastating impacts on the most vulnerable low-income TV/film workers. If you see a fundraiser, boost it or donate if you can. Good places to start are the Entertainment Community Fund and the Green Envelope Grocery Aid fund.
-Get involved in fandom-specific action. The biggest fandom impacts we've seen are when fandoms unite together to fundraise or visibly show support. Follow the example of the Star Trek Snack Squad and Our Flag Means Strike to organize YOUR fandom today! Want tips and spreadsheet templates? Message us, we'd be glad to help you organize your fandom!
Re: writers' and actors' strikes
I'll say it here rather than burying it in various tags again:
Always remember that the people hoarding the money can make the strike stop at any time.
And they, the studios and streaming services, want you to forget that their profit hoarding is the problem. They're the reason this is happening, not the writers and actors.
You can't see that movie you wanted because a studio is clutching a fistful of nickels. They can afford to pay writers and actors--large collectives of not-famous workers--something even a little bit closer to fairly. But they are determined not to, with the cruelest resolve. An unnamed executive said, and I quote exactly this time, "The endgame is to allow things to drag on until [writers'] union members start losing their apartments and losing their houses."
Get mad that you won't get your movies and shows.
Get mad at the right people.
i love this shit i need more examples
op of the original tweet here there are SO many examples in the replies
Furries are the last hope for our wretched society and every furry is braver than any marine and they deserve respect
Starting to think a fursona is just something you end up with when you self actualize
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

Hi coming here to be serious once.
If you didn’t know, multiple Eng VAs from Genshin Impact are coming out about the fact they haven’t been paid—literally one of them being Paimon, the character with the most voice lines in the game.
I really want to urge people to support the Eng VAs going through this stuff and potentially going homeless because of lack of pay.
If you want more information, here’s Tomo’s VA (Twitter Thread) and Paimon’s (Tiktok) explaining the situation. Corina (Paimon’s VA) in particular has not been paid for their work since December 2022
It’s unknown if this is the fault of Hoyoverse or the Eng recording studio company, Formosa but please spread awareness n support these folks
