The internet is a place where people can contact others from around the world, the government is scared that if they mess up, we’ll all revolt, they fear the burnt out fire within the hearts of the kids of America and more. They fear a quick snap revolt, so they decide to make bills to silence our generation and those to come. So I say, we make their fears become a reality. STOP KOSA

It’s not a coincidence that after the AMPTP hired a crisis PR firm that shows from Drew Barrymore to Bill Maher to The Talk to Jennifer Hudson are or are saying they plan to return to air without their writers. Similar language of needing to care for other workers and the WGA not being the only talent that’s important suggest a concerted effort to weaken the WGA stance and depict the writers as selfish and stubborn. And, frankly, the writers dominated the PR side of things for a long time, and losing that dominance as the AMPTP has finally brought on competent help for its own messaging is exceedingly dangerous for the WGA (which is also being positioned as fissuring from within, showrunners versus regular writers). The WGA needs to move, now, even though its negotiating power has already been eroded, before the AMPTP messaging takes hold even more.

Disclaimer: I have no inside information, but the playbook here isn’t new and the WGA needs to win what it can.

strikes ain't fun but they sure is exciting- hey newsies side of Tumblr! you've probably seen it already, but the KOSA (Kids Online Saftey Act) is an act of which is harmful to many american kids, due to the fact that it restricts access to information nececary for many kids and teenagers, such as sex ed, and lgbtq resources. it also means they can get rid of ao3, wattpad, tiktok , and other forms of media that many americans use. Here are some helpful links to keep yourself informed! don't stop speaking about it. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1IyBUe6frFGF44rJQU3TahZ5zyG3tC7jai_hPneAKlnM/edit https://twitter.com/lovingtaeonmain/status/1758881036149109221?t=EjYyy4PcfNwfkqkQFg2ogw&s=19

Why the KOSA Bill Should Not Pass

tw: ab0rtion talk, assault mention, su1cide mention

also, credit to @the-realest-spot-conlon for getting this strike started. i've known about this bill for a while but until she talked about it, i hadn't really researched what this bill would have in store for the united states.

this will be a bit dark because this is sort of a speech against the KOSA bill and the bill basically wants to ban any talk of abortion, protesting and the LGBTQ+ community from kids under 16- WHICH the parents have no control over controlling what their child could see and the government would basically be saying:

"oh that's inappropriate" to say something like, idk, an inclusive video

and basically sort of brainwashing an entire generation

so yeah this will be a bit dark so don't read if you might be uncomfortable with the topics this sort of speech will have

(and this is directed at the government so when I say 'you' in the paragraphs it's towards the government)

[i removed the first part because it's a bit more personal and uh i dont think it should be shared here :sob]

And while it might seem a bit overexaggerated, it’s true. There are teenagers all over the united states, countries and the globe who face problems like these. And it’s not just verbal. No, there is physical violence and assault, hate crimes happening to students everywhere.

You might now be asking: “What does this have to do with the KOSA bill?”

I hate to say it but the internet has truly been my one and only friend I can ever count on. Who I always know has my back. The LGBTQ+ community doesn’t care if I’m not super skinny or if I have scars lining my arms. They support the fact I don’t really have any romantic feelings towards other people or really just romantic feelings in general. They make me feel normal. That it’s okay to not feel inclined to have and align with the normal gender rules. That I don’t have to follow the binary.

The internet is the only place I can analyze poetry and art deeply with different interpretations and analyzations of every single line, or every single stroke in a painting or word in a novel. Where I can freely talk about my new hyperfixation and no one will stare at me weirdly. Instead, they will respond with another essay.

They won’t say it’s “fucking sad” that I like to write essays in my free time- one of the only ways I can truly express myself because no one at school wants to hear me talk.

And it’s not just a safe place for me. No, it’s a place where everyone as a whole can express their rights and their thoughts. This is our future generation- our future leaders we’re talking about. If the only things that can make us realize what we need to change are censored, how will we ever be able to fix these problems that citizens make?

Abortion laws. Yes I’m saying that. You want to censor any talk of abortion. What about all the innocent girls out there? Brutally assaulted and forced to ruin their career because they can’t get rid of a baby that’s not even developed yet. That doesn’t even have feelings or a brain yet. It’s just a tiny hint of life, not a fully classified human being yet. An embryo. And so now, they will have to face anxiety, depression, guilt, maybe even shame and ruin for the rest of their lives.

They don’t have a free choice. But America is supposed to be freedom for the people! And here you are, taking away futures. Taking away future doctors, lawyers and even presidents. Just to save a cell inside their stomachs. Just to make them risk their lives giving a painful birth that will destroy their bodies. No brain, no feelings and no heartbeat.

We need to know the wrongs in our world to stop them! To be able to protest against them! To be able to stand up for ourselves! So the older generations won't keep making votes that will ruin OUR futures.

Let’s look back at the first right for our states. Freedom of Speech. Huh, sound familiar to your bill? You want to take away protesting from the eyes of our future. From what can help them make the right decisions for our nation. So they can learn to lead. But no, you just want to raise mindless sheep that will bend to your will because they never had any exposure to what can help them break away.

This bill will ruin lives. It will break apart the nation into pieces like a glass window broken by a bullet. Because if this bill passes, I bet you this: suicide rates will go up. Depression rates: up. Without the comfort of people who you actually connect to, isolation will take over your feelings and it just leads you into a downward spiral.

Imagine you’re a 13 year old who just watched their entire future torn to shreds by a bill signed. You just took their voice away. Their rights away. Possibly their entire life away. Consider that.

Ariane Lalonde pays more than $1,200 a month for a studio apartment she's converted to a two bedroom in Montreal — and she's had enough.

"We're all paying way too much," said Lalonde, who feels that she should be paying at most $800 or $900 for the space she's renting.

"My generation, we won't be able to have a house," she said. "I never thought I would not be able to when I was young. I took that for granted. It's insane."

It’s actually astounding how many people don’t understand that unless you are a massive HUGE A-List Celebrity (or like…a nepo baby), you don’t make that much money as an actor. It’s why so many working actors do brand deals and sponsorships/collaborations. Lesser known actors may have side gigs in the service industry or with content creation outside of acting.

Plus, a lot of actors are ALSO writers.

The higher ups also don’t seem to understand this. They’ve implied that the picketers are only hurting themselves by going on strike, as they won’t be able to survive without their jobs that don’t even pay a livable wage. They’re basically giving people the LA/NYC equivalent of $30K a year and saying “Why are you asking for more? Isn’t that already enough? You’re greedy and you should be ashamed.”

This doesn’t even factor in marginalized actors who already get paid significantly less than their more privileged peers. There have been so many stories of HIGHLY RESPECTED Black and Brown actors getting underpaid/underbooked after major award wins.

And let’s not even get into disabled actors and queer actors of color. Omg.

#wga strike #sag strike #like sure you might make a couple hundred thousand to a couple million for a movie but #so many actors have pointed out that you have to use that money to pay bills and pay your staff and pay for your dues and pay for your rep #unless you’re constantly booking (which doesn’t always happen) you’re heavily reliant on side gifs #*gigs
