I responded to a comment on that article with the URL of Cash for the Crew - I hope it gets printed.
I'm a single undead gal trying to make it in the big city. I have to start somewhere and they're evil here. They don't judge. They've got necro-tempered glass. No burning up. A great medical plan, and who needs dental more than us?

when i die, please bake my ashes into a brick and use me to hit fascists.
That is so fantastic. Yay SAG!
I explained the strike to a labmate yesterday, and also what the studios might be losing or gaining (upfronts, saving money on reality shows, maybe ending some overall deals, etc). I was a little frightened at how much I knew, but was glad to be able to spread the writer-love.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Ok, seriously, I have crocheted four red scarves - so are we still doing more care packages, or did I completely miss the boat on that? If not, I need an address to mail them to. Or should I just donate them somewhere here?

Ok, this may be just me, but a red scarf from Andi would be much more likely to get me to donate than a script. IJS.

Nikke Finke is reporting that United Artists has made a deal with the WGA.
There's no official confirmation yet.

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.
I saw some guff in the press recently saying Tom Cruise is having financial trouble after his taking over of United Artists, so mebbe he doesn't want his studio sat on it's ass for the next year?
I buy it, anyway. It makes perfect sense for UA and it's good for the WGA.

I'd be just as happy to send 'em off to folks here who want them in exchange for a donation...

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
OK I know the answer to A but I need a better picture of the sign to answer B.
And yay, you! for turning up to picket in such narsty weather.
