May the Fourth …. … wouldn’t be possible without unions. Without writers. Without actors. Without directors. Without crew. Without composers. Without teamsters. Without all of the work of a thousand voices, there would be no Force. May the fourth be with all of us.
I did a thread with a breakdown of some of the issues that were on the table but you can also visit wgacontract2023.org/the-campaign/p… for a list of the demands. That said, if you don’t work in film/tv some of this will be confusing, hence the thread

Two-Spirit (trans people) predate non-Native settler-invaders and their transphobic religious rhetoric, on this continent, by thousands of years.
How to stay sane as a Hollywood writer: Get your self esteem and happiness elsewhere.
I can’t stop watching this.
A kid buys two assault weapons, days apart, and 375 rounds of ammunition. Is that alone not a warning sign?
The cable news washing machine is asking what motivated Salvador Ramos to kill all those children. The answer is simple: He did it because he could. The guns were available. America needs to ban assault weapons in almost all cases.
It’s either kids or guns. You need to decide which one is more important and vote accordingly.
On Tuesday my mid child will be 6.5 years old. I will be exactly 6 months away from paying off my 20% portion of her $1.2mil birth. We can't be deciding as a country to force carrying pregnancies when we wont provide insurance that covers the cost.

The overwhelming majority of TV shows are not filmed in LA where most live. So, what does that mean? Well, if you’re a series regular on a TV show you get flown to another city (another country, Canada usually) where you’re expected to LIVE for the duration of filming. They give…
On one hand you feel like you don't recognize the person you see in the mirror and it hurts. And then you feel shame for being vapid enough to care. So it's like two punches in the face that you're giving to yourself.
Coming back to add this: without even realizing it, I matched my lip gloss color tonight with the color of my bra. And both were Barbiecore hot pink. In case there's a question about whether I am hot. 😘
OK I'm finally watching Station 11 and of course, everyone was right and it's a beautiful series. I guess I can see why I didn't watch it earlier, though

I write each name down. Year after year. I fight for them & they fight for me. We need each other. But do we need these institutions? SCOTUS keeps playing games w our lives. The final buzzer is approaching. So fuck the playing field. I’m tired. Sign me up for radical refuturing.
My entire career/life is bc of that decision. It’s why I am now a professor. Every year Black, Native, & Brown students thank me bc they never thought they’d have a professor like me. They thank me for existing in these places of violence that were never built for us. 2/
I was accepted to Stanford 100% bc of affirmative action. A 15 yo rez girl living w kids from royal families & trust funds. When I worked for Stanford Admissions, I had to answer does Stanford practice aff action? My response was always yes bc the playing field isn’t level! 1/
1) Thread for today: I am not going to opine on the Supreme Court's ruling except to tell a story about a late and valued friend. The story will suffice for the sum of my thoughts about affirmative action. I was working at the student newspaper at the University of Maryland...
...To his great credit, Milch read the letter, invited Mills to lunch and then promptly hired him. Suffice to say that for a few seasons, Mills made NYPD Blue better. He wrote for other productions, and then together, writing a miniseries based on my second book...
...and further, that black writers often struggled to write from outside their own minority context. Mills read the interview and wrote a savage little missive to Milch, telling him off and thanking him for assuring mediocre white writers of their established, favored status...
...editing copy to turn on the small newsroom television and watch "Hill Street Blues" and "St. Elsewhere." He was fascinated by the form and its possibilities. We wrote that first script together in two weeks, touching on certain American racial dynamics, and it won the WGA...
I want to thank all the $8 fauxticks for coming out of your fever swamps to flood the replies and prove exactly what I said beyond any doubt. You crushed it. Great teamwork, everyone.
I want to talk about AI. Partly to explain why writers & actors are so stressed. Partly to highlight why it’s important that people in WGA & SAG leadership positions aren’t all super successful already. This got so long I did a notes app instead of a thread, to be less annoying.
My best friend, who had never seen Y tu mamá también and thought it was just a movie about taking a road trip with a hot lady, has been telling me "We need a Y tu mamá también summer" for months and he finally watched it and text me "yoooooo"
