I’m fucking livid about the safety rejections. Especially rejecting better protected rest periods??? Are you kidding me?!

I worked a show where our lead actor COLLAPSED from overwork. He had to be HOSPITALIZED. We had to shut down production for a month while he recovered! He had been working long days for 12 weeks straight with minimal rest.

KJ Apa from Riverdale worked a 16 hr day and fell asleep behind the wheel, resulting in a horrible car crash.

It’s not uncommon in the tv/film industry to witness fellow cast and crew DIE OF HEART ATTACKS on set caused by stress and lack of sleep.

REJECTED??? Give us our fucking rest AMPTP! Why do you think my bio has been “Overworked film/tv crew plz let me sleep” for the last two years???

It’s strange to see anyone surprised by Universal using a tactic as cruel as denying even shade to picket line members, in the heat-based hellscape that is Los Angeles. So let’s try to condense the explanation.

By and large, executives are people who already come from wealth and privilege, and have that wealth and privilege protected throughout their life as they’re escorted through whatever levels of education and then into employment.

Most of them have never received any kind of culture shock to make them aware of the struggles of ‘lessers’. Their parents and peers had a vested interest in keeping the then-children from mixing with 'those people’.

They are insulated enough from daily life that they no longer see anyone outside their immediate wealth and influence bracket as human.

So a strike, to them, is not “people who want enough money to live and work in health”, it’s “The machine that makes us money is broken, get those workers back into their jobs so we can keep making money.”

So the executives treat the strike like they would a broken machine or a disobedient pet. Hit it until it works, and replace it if it breaks.

And don’t doubt for one minute that this wasn’t at the advice of a Pinkerton or similar union-busting agency consultant. This is more than just petty; this is tactical cruely.

don’t forget during the WGA strike that animation is not covered under the WGA deals and as a result animation has gotten the shortest possible end of the stick in under-staffing, under-paying, and generally turning the field into gig employment.

please sign the petition here for Disney to recognize animation production workers as a union and reblog this post!

If a flaming old queen in a cape wants to kill off racists in power I say have at it

That wasn’t even his plan!! His plan was to make the senator a mutant, so he’d have to advocate for mutants or be destroyed by his own policy, and tbh. It’s the best villain plan I’ve ever seen. The goo was the plan unexpectedly failing. 9/10 only bc he was going to kill Rogue. Next time use someone willing to sacrifice herself for the cause, pls. No further notes
