Those gift bag delivery pictures are awesome! Go team!
You never know if a girl's gonna say 'yes', or if she's gonna laugh in your face and pull out your still-beating heart and crush it into the ground with her heel.

[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.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I love the pictures of the survival kit drop-off!
The guy is on the WGA negotiating committee, and he's crossing the picket line. The guy is a showrunner, makes millions of dollars, has a hit show that's in no danger of being cancelled, and he's stabbing his fellow writers and showrunners in the back.
AND! He's part of the leadership that pushed for this strike, that marketed for this strike, that called people and asked for their support for this strike.Wow, I didn't know that. That...wow.

Thrive to spite them
That's horrible! The Lost guy not hte gift bags, the gift bags rock.
I can't believe that he'd encourage everyone to strike and then at the least little bit of sign difficulty just break ranks.

At first I was "feeling for" Cuse, but after the last few posts I've changed my mind - the guy is an asshat. He's totally fucking the other showrunners who are letting their babies get mutilated for the sake of the strike.
Just because it's a hard decision, doesn't mean there isn't a right and wrong.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
He's totally fucking the other showrunners who are letting their babies get mutilated for the sake of the strike.
If Shawn Ryan can keep his hands off his series finale and Michelle Fazekas can let her own show potentially die...
I wonder what Lindelof thinks of this, having published that op-ed piece. I'm also waiting to see if UH comments on it.
Strikes are messy.

Thanks for sharing that, Kristen. If I wasn't convinced before, I sure as hell am now. What a shitty thing to do.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
Yeah, hearing the role he played in the decision to strike from the outset that throws his crossing the picket line into an entirely different light.

Thanks for posting, Kristen. I hope he gets some serous public flak for it. That's the only thing that could mitigate any of the tremendous harm he's doing the effort.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.
I'm so glad I never picked up the "Lost" bug.
