Zoe: Nobody's saying that, sir. Wash: Yeah, we're pretty much just giving each other significant glances and laughing incessantly.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

We don't need to vote to put in a link, right?

Perhaps we could put something in the " A community dedicated to discussions of Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Angel and Firefly with humor, intelligence and obsessiveness. Read our FAQ, then join the fun." Like... We support the WGA writer's strike, more information at (link to fans4writers). If you want Buffista strike talk it is here (link to Minearverse).

Only, you know, better. And change the masthead after a vote?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Although I personally want the image up ASAP, maybe not everyone here is actually in favour of the strike, and would like the opportunity to vote against the site supporting it.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Isn't that kinda the *entire* part?

Okay, so I'm an idiot. I was looking at the other parts of this.

Information is linked, and I think it sort of means we'd put the strike icon on our header, and inform them if we make donations that it's coming from Buffistas, or if we do our own thing that we let them know so they can add it to their list.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

I'm having a What would ita do? moment. I feel like she has principled positions and such, whereas I just have my sense of right and wrong and that's not really applicable here.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

heh. Why look? ita just posted, and she was all principled and the like.

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

Do we need to open lightbulbs?

It does feel silly to me, too. I would want to put up our sign right away. We're like those tree things in the girlie elf movie. It's frustrating.

"I am the all-singing, all-dancing crap of the world"

I support a link or icon and so forth. If we're gonna vote let's do this quickly.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

maybe not everyone here is actually in favour of the strike, and would like the opportunity to vote against the site supporting it.

I feel like sometimes I'm the most pro big-business buffista, and I think the icon is fine.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Signs you speak Allyson:

The phrase "We're like those tree things in the girlie elf movie." translates into "ents" in your head in about a nanosecond.

Our wings are not tired.

My personal opinion is go bullshit consense, choose bullshit consense, but we have these rules in place.

Agreed.

Vote or not, either way works for me. I think many of us would like to show our support in some way. Saying it for the whole board probably means we should vote. I anticipate a landslide.
