I don't know about you guys, but I've had it with super-strong little women who aren't me.

[NAFDA] "There will be an occasional happy, so that it might be crushed under the boot of the writer." From Zorro to Angel (including Wonderfalls, The Inside and Drive), this is where Buffistas come to anoint themselves in the bloodbath.

Jump on the bandwagon how?

We're all getting played with, babe. -Weird Barbie

Oh, I've been meaning to ask--does someone at TWOP have a red car with the license plate "TWOPWRS"? Because I couldn't think of another meaning for the acronym, and I'm wondering if WRS is "writers" or "wars" or something else altogether.

ETA: It takes a very long time to merge onto the 405 from Sunset. Waaaaay too much time to obsess about license plates and such on that ramp.

Hm, I don't know... where are you at?

I'd tend to read it as "two powers," although that's equally mysterious. Unless they're a superhero.

I? Am a moron.

Clearly I spend way too much time on the Internets.

where are you at?
Merging onto the 405N off Sunset on the Westside. But I think you're right--probably not TWOP. Either way, verra mysterious indeed.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

The SWAG Bandwagon! I see lots of LJ icons, but I feel that I can't really support the writers without an awesome tshirt and stickers.

Even if it was a LE, I think at this point the a shirt wouldn't be sent out until Jan. Stickers might be easier, though.

I'm being a party pooper, sorry.

Embrace the idea that we are the leaders we've been looking for. Grace Lee Boggs

it comes from the fact that 50 years ago, those were "female" jobs

I don't really know, but I read that after WWII, Russia lost so many men that it became acceptable for women to be doctors and almost immediately, the pay and prestige of doctors plummeted.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

I've done my part to ensure that the strike ends in fewer than 7-9 business days.

"Don' be e-scared"

Working WGA members make a lot of dosh. I think trying to make it sound like we're paid like teachers is a wrongheaded notion. It's nothing like being a teacher. When I'm doing a show, I stand in a room with a big board and a marker and try to get a roomful of profane wiseasses to focus and do their work. I assign them projects, then when they turn in their work I go over it with a red pen.

That came out wrong.

In seriousness, since I will have some time on my hands, I and my friends are thinking of ways to communicate what it is we ARE fighting for and why it's of the good and right.
