This is awesome. You guys care. Unions got 'em by the balls. The rich pigs have been publicly bragging that, with AI, they need neither human writers nor human actors. And now both sets of humans have something they need!
FUCK THE OLIGARCHS.

Don't worry, they hardly get paid anything and are simply asking to get paid enough hardly-anything to live on. You want a product? You pay the fee. If Disney+ isn't worth what they charge you, cancel it; don't demand the few people doing work get paid less because I promise you, their sad earnings are not the reason you get gauged. |

Are studios really using mobile apps to pilfer source material for content? I don't know but I just knocked that up on my phone and wondered if it would be possible to create a whole feature or episode using the app. I could copy and paste some of the more dramatic message board arguments and see if that works. Or perhaps not... |

Any writers who write garbage shouldn’t get enough to live on. They should be forced to get a different job. |

If the pizza tasted like crap, buy your dinner some place else. |

Any writers who write garbage shouldn’t get enough to live on. They should be forced to get a different job. Writer Alex O'Keefe was working on a hit television show loved by the audience and critics but he was struggling to make ends meet. The Bear is about a young star chef who returns home to take over his family sandwich shop after a tragedy. Mr O'Keefe told the BBC that he worked on the hit show from his "tiny" Brooklyn flat, or sometimes from the public library when his electricity failed. He's one of the writers who have now gone on strike to protest over falling pay as viewing habits turn to streaming platforms. Members of the Writers Guild of America strike began their strike overnight. "We are finding ourselves unable to survive in places like New York City and Los Angeles, where we need to be to be in writers' rooms," said Mr O'Keefe, a WGA member. |

Hasn't stopped Villeneuve from developing Dune 3 apparently.

A common right-wing saying. What's wrong with it is that the bosses control the market. The people who get paid don't have any bargaining power. The ownership can offer wages on a take it or leave it basis - which is why conservatism likes it. It is only when the people who actually produce for the bosses and owners join together in a group for fair pay does that ever come about. |
