So we’re open in LA! If you’re a little curious, here’s a little more on the play and the awesome human beings making #RevengePornortheStoryofaBody. We want everyone to have access so there’s a Pay What You Can and AAPI night on 10/1. DM me for codes. https://t.co/KND9RuRozN

@lucaspeterson I have always loved your work and will follow you wherever you go. @latimes has made a mistake. But excited for whatever your next chapter entails.

[carla ching @carlaching]

@its_willyu Congratulations! That’s fantastic.

@AaronFullerton Congrats, Aaron!

[Writers Guild of America West @WGAWest]

The WGA and AMPTP have reached a tentative agreement. This was made possible by the enduring solidarity of WGA members and extraordinary support of our union siblings who stood with us for over 146 days. More details coming after contract language is finalized. #WGAStrike

Snoop Dogg breaks down why streaming residuals is a huge issue for SAG-AFTRA & WGA. Well said!

For folks asking how you can send support to the front lines and to all those workers affected by the pickets.

[Adam Conover @adamconover]

Mayor Bass: It is so disappointing that you won't get off the fence and stand with writers and actors after we supported your candidacy in record numbers. It is VITAL to the future of Los Angeles that you visit our picket line and lend your support, and here's why: 🧵@MayorOfLA

SAG ACTORS:

I’m a former SAG Board Member and former SAG Negotiating Committee member.
I’m also WGA and DGA. 1/

To #supportwriters as they stand for fair pay & protections, @HUMANITASPrize is sending grocery gift cards for current WGA writers in need, while supplies last. Spread the word! (Link in bio) #WGAStrike

[Albert Kim @MagicBranch]

Why does a writer need to be on set? And why can’t a showrunner fulfill their producing duties during a strike? THREAD:

[Sera Gamble @serathegamble]

WHY HAVE A TV WRITER ON SET?

Since they already wrote the script (and rewrote it 8 times, and tweaked it after the table read)?

Glad you asked, here's a thread.

[Writers Guild of America West @WGAWest]

The so-called “A through H” duties are specifically defined in the Guild contract as writing services and therefore constitute struck work that Guild members are prohibited from doing during a work stoppage. #WGAstrong

@BCubria Eff-yeah.

[William Yu 유규호 @its_willyu]

We’re in the home stretch. So many things had to swing the right way to get to this point. But I kept believing because I met so many people who wanted to push with me. If you have *one minute* please check out this trailer and RT it. I can’t for you to watch GOOD BOY 🫰🏼

[Daniel Dae Kim @danieldaekim]

.@badaxefilm opens today! For a little insight into the movie, check out this piece that just dropped. Thanks, @Salon ! @IFCFilms

@angryasianman Tell us all how to follow you to the next chapter!

[carla ching @carlaching]

@qui_writes It’s been so great to go on this journey with you. Thanks for being there last night and hanging after and thanks for these words and I am so excited to see #StrangeWorld and all that’s happening in your world.

[carla ching @carlaching]

@BCubria But go with @Csvich or check with Sheila Callaghan and Tripharlot Press. There’s also @TRWPlays. I have 2 there and they have been lovely.

[carla ching @carlaching]

@BCubria I’ve been in the weird loop where your rep pitches it up the publisher and they take months and months to answer. And at least for me, it’s often no. Took six years to get Two Kids published though I keep hearing people are teaching it in it’s university classes.I don’t get it.
