BREAKING: SAG-AFTRA members are about to vote on a Video Game strike authorization.

After a year of negotiation the union says the major video game companies have failed to address the needs of actors involved.

So they're calling for a second simultaneous strike.

I like that this website does a bad job of showing the original tweet that's being replied to so your timeline just fills up with weird little snippets like "oh great, let's make babies even bigger" or "what about dog owners who need to use the bus?"

Seeing someone with a Hogwarts house or an HP cosplay on a dating app in 2023 always feels like seeing a thylacine

I’ve seen so many horribly cursed things in the internet, but I still think one of the worst and most baffling of the past few years was “I HATE musicals, except Phantom of the Opera”

Thinking about it it's still kinda insane that Greta Gerwig's revolutionary, paradigm shattering ideas that led to a hit movie are things like "We will build an actual set. We will fill it with props. Everyone's costume will physically exist and not be put on in post."

Just letting you all know that MY favorite childhood author Bruce Coville isn't a bigot and still rules.

This is from his book My Teacher Glows in the Dark, which was written six years before Sorcerer's Stone.

This may be an unlovely thing to admit but I cannot express enough how much I want it to become a thing for multibillionaires to make each other bleed real blood for my entertainment
People didn’t want to see a fight - they wanted to see Musk shown that one cannot bullshit forever, and that while he may have billions of dollars, he is still a sack of bones and blood and guts and horrible, horrible ideas. It would be a global catharsis.

Said it before and I’ll say it again: we in SAG-AFTRA and/or the WGA know they are not going to stop with OUR jobs.

If your job CAN be replaced with AI, it WILL be.
