@LinkedInHelp It's 2024 and most of these don't seem to be resolved.

[Phiam Ash @PhiamAsh]

@LinkedIn Why is your service so terrible? You forced your way into a monopoly position and they proceeded to let yourself go all to hell. If you aren't going to fix basic things like logging in, could you just sell off your assets and cease to exist?

@YouTubeCreators Actually Serfs had it better, they had off seasons.

[Phiam Ash @PhiamAsh]

@YouTubeCreators Is it really so hard to allow publishers to pause their accounts seasonally without being punished? Doesn't everyone deserve breaks or are creative people doomed to be serfs?

@MartinNebelong Cheers to more health and happiness

If you support SAG and the WGA you should sign this. Truly there is no reason this doesn't have enough signatures yet!!

Disney+ removed both seasons of a show I’d staffed on from the platform, ensuring that I’ll never make another dollar in residuals from it, or be able to watch it again.

Mind you, the show gave them 11 Emmy Noms last year.

What’s “realistic” about that?

“We can’t afford to pay writers and actors more.”

Meanwhile, studio CEO pay is through the roof:

Netflix CEOs: $51M & $50M
Nexstar CEO: $39M
Warner Bros. Discovery CEO: $39M
Comcast CEO: $32M
Paramount CEO: $32M
Walt Disney CEO : $24M
AMC: $24M
Fox Corp CEO : $22M

Says the man who pays himself $25 million a year, deplatforms his company's shows and movies to stop paying residuals, and tried to get the feds to clean his mess for him. THAT sounds more disturbing to me that a strike. #WritersStrike #WGAStrike #SAGAFTRA #UnionStrong

1. A new database reveals that 1500 state lobbyists hired by environmental groups and other institutions concerned about climate change also lobby for fossil fuel companies with diametrically opposed policy goals.

Follow along for a few of the most egregious examples.

To recap: Supreme Court justices nominated by a president who lost the popular vote and confirmed by Senators representing far less than half the country have eliminated abortion rights, green-lighted anti-LGBTQ discrimination, and ended affirmative action.

In one year.

[Katie Porter @katieporterca]

For the first time in history—and on the last day of #PrideMonth, no less—the Supreme Court legalized discrimination against a protected class. I am furious by today's decision to green light hate and limit the LGBTQI+ community's participation in our economy. Congress must act.

[Victor Shi @Victorshi2020]

To recap: the Supreme Court overturned the right to an abortion, dismantled affirmative action, said ALL businesses can deny service to the LGBTQ+ community, & struck down President Biden's student forgiveness program. ALL IN ONE YEAR. You bet Gen Z is pissed off.

[Read Raising Expectations (and Raising Hell) @JPHilllllll]

The Supreme Court didn't just legalize discrimination against queer customers and other people today, they did it based on a fabricated case.
