How about we all jump into indies now? Content creators create a film & TV-making system alongside the studio & streaming networks? So there is actual competition. 🧵

In this era of corporate greed and union busting, management seems to hold all the cards. Except for the most important ones: Unity; Solidarity; Fraternity. All of us win when the writers win. And we will win. Union! Strike! #wgastrike #UnionStrong #Succession @jessearmstrong1

The new HBO Max (MAX) has eliminated writer/director credits in their interface in favor of a vague "Creators." This is what Raging Bull currently looks like. It's so fucking over.

I wrote about the @WGAEast @WGAWest writers’ strike for Bloomberg @opinion—specifically the shocking hubris of eye-poppingly wealthy studio executives who expect workers to happily put up with exploitation out of “love” bloomberg.com/opinion/articl…

This is what I would be doing on TV without writers.
Writers are asking for fairness: when the studios invest millions into producing a film or series, they can pay for the value writers create. #WGAStrong #WGAStrike @WGAEast @WGAWest

Dear @SpeakerMcCarthy,
It would take the American worker 2.2 million years to make as much 💰 as Jeff Bezos makes in a single year. Yet Bezos is SOMEHOW taxed at a lower rate than those workers! So stop trying to cut Social Security & #TaxBillionaires

BREAKING: A total of 7 peaceful climate protestors in the US are now charged with "terrorism" as police and fossil fuel industry work overtime to stifle dissent. Five charged just last week in Atlanta.
Who do you think the real criminals are?

Instead of the Presidential Fitness Test, how about we sit and reach for more Native American history being taught in schools? 😂 In all seriousness, please watch this hilarious and informative video from @joeytainment. Amazing work!
87% of U.S. schools don't teach Native American history past 1900, so I put together this helpful list of things about Native people that they really, REALLY should teach in high school.

As strikes get more frequent, larger, longer and as employers call in gov't they own, general strike is workers' best response.

Finally, after 14 years of poisoned water from #fracking, there is justice for the residents of Dimock, Pennsylvania. Thank you @PAattorneyGen Josh Shapiro for putting the people first and protecting Pennsylvanians' constitutional right to clean the water and air.
