WGA NBCU picketers & allies - if our captains ask you to step onto the curb (“sidewalk for safety”), walk to your right, or clear the road - this is for YOUR car safety. Thank them for their service and do as they ask, please? RT for visibility, gracias. #wgastrong

literally who would do this. what sick freak would go to an outdoor supply store, maybe an REI, which is located at 1900 Empire Ave in Burbank, easily accessible by bus lines and with ample nearby parking, and get a Vargo Titanium Emergency Whistle for only $10.99 plus tax.

I remember being on a set once and somebody was blowing a whistle a few blocks away.
It shut down production until we could find them and get them to stop.
Just a random memory posted for no reason.

Music supervisors attended our Netflix picket this afternoon and talked to us about their fight for union recognition. Corporations are refusing to acknowledge them and negotiate a fair contract.
Quote Tweet
Unprecedented solidarity.
These music supervisors are still waiting for their union, which we filed at @netflix months ago…
AND THEY ARE STILL OUT IN FORCE IN SOLIDARITY WITH @WGAWest AND @WGAEast!!!!!!

In 2017 when I was staffing Kipo, a TAG animated show for Netflix/DreamWorks, I had to fight tooth and nail to get a writing staff. Then I had to fight to get a writers room, and offices for where the writers could, you know, write. One was basically a closet for three people.

In 2021, I got a meeting request from a TAG animated show for Netflix, with a hot star attached. Netflix wanted "new voices" for a "new process."
The process? Break the entire season over a WEEKEND. Then give each writer a freelance.
My pay for the whole season would be $9k. twitter.com/lbyock/status/…

Many WGA writers and SAG-AFTRA members boycotted the Chateau Marmont during ’s campaign. Now they have our backs. This is solidarity. We will keep showing up for each other because LA is a union town. #WGAstrong #1u

the interesting thing about entertainment right now is that if DGA, WGA, and SAG-AFTRA all go on strike, we will essentially have a general strike in places like LA that heavily rely on entertainment. CA alone has almost 1,000,000 entertainment/digital media jobs

You’re never going to believe this but writers caught them violating the “neutral gate” rules at Warner Bros and now we get to picket that gate. Come picket with us! You might end up being a spy. #writersstrike #WGAstrong

Quick explainer on those neutral gates you might've heard about, and how they can be used as a union-busting tactic to stop picketing #WGAStrong

I haven’t talked about it much here, but the employees at Powell’s Books (yes, where I work) are fighting for a living wage and better healthcare. Powell’s isn’t keen on giving us either. We’re asking folks to read, sign, and share this petition 💖

Sunset Gower is the “satellite campus” of our Netflix ops. We try to send people there, especially when our main line gets a bit hectic. Check in @ Netflix HQ, then march on down to SG!
We are discussing how to set up SG on its own, more soon. If you’d like to volunteer, DM me!
Quote Tweet
Sunset Gower Studios just a couple of blocks away from Netflix needed bodies this morning. If you are picketing Netflix, it's a short walk over to help out for an hour or two. There were 3 folks there holding it down twitter.com/BisHilarious/s…

Meet creator #PoseFX. Why he's striking: Historically underrepresented groups have been left behind w/smaller rooms, shorter orders, having to repeat levels & not being sent to set to produce. As a result, we're not gaining the necessary skills to move up #WGAStrike

For real y’all, lots of things actually filming at other studios *Universal*, *WB*, *Sony*, *Radford* and *Amazon*. Let’s spread the numbers to these places!! #WritersGuildStrike #WGAStrong
Quote Tweet
This! Also, please try to do picketing shifts at studios where actual production is happening, rather than just corporate offices. Netflix may be the Death Star, but we also need to shut down those Imperial Star Destroyers! #WritersStrike2023 #WGAStrong #ShutItDown twitter.com/gennhutchison/…

This attack was fueled by racism & hate. We’re shocked a Texas official publicly said today that race “didn’t matter” in the shooting. The denial & silence of leaders in TX & beyond echoes the downplaying of race as a motivator in the Atlanta spa shootings
