Unions (and the people who fought on behalf of them) are the reason you enjoy the vast majority of the enshrined rights that prevent your working environment from being even WORSE.

A proper, warts-and-all explanation of the path from first SAG-AFTRA job to SAG-AFTRA "must-pay" status, complete with examples and visual aids. Thank you, @bendiskin.bsky.social!
Here's how the joining process works behind the scenes at the union.

In case you're wondering, "Ben.... Where did you get this information? I've heard other things before...," my source is the Executive Director of Customer Experience at SAG-AFTRA.

If I never get the chance again, while I will miss Alm, Soren, and the Gatekeeper greatly, my memories playing in the Fire Emblem sandbox are happy. The fans have always been wonderful and Nintendo was always good to me. I look forward to the day that a SAG-AFTRA contract meets their needs ♥️

Today in "Don't Trust AI to Tell You Facts": How several different "AI" programs messed up the simple fact of to whom I dedicated a book, and what that means for how much you should trust "AI" to tell you the truth about things (spoiler: not much at all):

Love to see the Sedgwick County Zoo putting out a good explainer on why GenAI slop videos of animals are a problem & how to identify them! It’s succinct, easy to read, and doesn’t shame people for not knowing better. A+ useful link to share with family and friends.

If actors want a tool to fight against AI Dubbing on Amazon's platform, we have to do the actual work.

SAG-AFTRA can't step in and fight for us.

We ARE the union.

If actors want a union Amazon Dubbing Agreement, we have to, at bare minimum, stop working for them non-union.

"And as for the latter argument, that AI will allow more people to realize their dreams? Please. The joy in creating something is in having created it."

Well said, Andrew. Well said.
Over the last month, I've been working on this essay about the use of AI art in board games, "Is This Really What We Want?" Though it is contextually specific, it is also a reflection of my wider thoughts on the use of AI art and writing in creative contexts.

I just watched The Summer Hikaru Died. It was an amazing anime. Great work by @kylemccarley.com as Yoshiki and @paulcastrojr.bsky.social as Hikaru. 👏

The fact that some of the companies who run the games industry are fighting so hard to stop unionization just proves how much power the workers have when they stand together. This disgusting action only delays the inevitable; solidarity will win.
This is the most ruthless act of union busting in the history of the UK games industry. Yesterday, @rockstargames.com unfairly fired over 30 employees for union activity.

We won't back down, and we're not scared - we will fight for every member to be reinstated.
BREAKING: Yesterday Grand Theft Auto VI maker Rockstar Games fired dozens of people, all of whom were involved in union efforts. A British union calls it "blatant and ruthless" union-busting. Take-Two Interactive says it was due to misconduct.
