SAG-AFTRA is Ready

[Image ID: A tweet from Bethany Anne Lind (@LindBethanyAnne) from July 12th, 2023 that reads:

Hi. You’re looking for the “rank and file” actors? We’re here. Very easy to find. Lots of IMDb credits. Few shits to give if we ever work for the AMPTP’s pennies again. @sagaftra /End ID]

[Image ID: A QT of the first tweet by Alex Collins (@AlexCollinsActs) from July 12th, 2023, that reads:

Exactly this!!! This is my 23rd year as an actor and when you factor in inflation, loss of residuals to streaming, and content being shelved, I’m making LESS than I did 23 years ago. This does NOT happen in the corporate world. Experience=merit based incentive raises. /End ID]

Sorry I can't get all of the tweet. Those links used to take it to where you could read the whole thing, now you have to sign in again. Stupid broken Twitter.

Anywho, the beginning of Vincent D'Onofrio's tweet reads:

Attention @sagaftra stay strong actors. Do not let the higher echelon of our peers convince us otherwise. The writing is on the wall. Solidarity is staring us in the face. Eyes are on us let's finally be the Union we should have always been. This is no joke this is our moment of…

If anyone can get the full thing, that would be great!

[Image ID: a tweet from t-pants (@timothyryancole) actually just posted on July 12th, 2023 that reads:

Are you kidding me?

We’re actors…

We’ve been dealing with unemployment our whole lives

you don’t think we can handle a few extra months?

Bring it AMPTP - you greedy fucks

#wga #sagaftra #strike

/End ID]

Not SAG, but this is a good one too:

[Image ID: A tweet from Andra (on-druh) Whipple (@whipsical) from July 12th that reads:

Somebody should tell the AMPtP that like 90% of writers are either former assistants or former lawyers. We’re used to getting fucked with, and we know all about power. /End ID]

[Image ID: Tweet from Rukhmani K. Desai (@/rukhdesai) from July 12th, 2023 that reads:

Lol SAG gave the AMPTP a self-tape due in less than 24 hours. At least 40 pages of stuff to look over and said “good luck to you on that.” /End ID]

[Image ID: a tweet from Mica Burton (@micaburton) from July 13th that reads:

Time to decorate my knee scooter and crutches with strike accessories so I can join my fellow SAG members on the picket line— broken ankle be damned it won’t stop be from yelling at the AMPTP /End ID]

[Image ID for the above set of tweets: two tweets from Luke Barnett (@/lukebarnett) posted July 13th, 2023 that read in totality:

I don't think the AMPTP realizes the sheer amount of actors in this town who don't work during the day. There literally will not be room for us. Every studio gate is going to look like Wal-Mart on black Friday but with more spray tans.

Like, I'm literally going to be showing up with a mini-van of dads from my kid's preschool who are all out of work working actors. Traffic within a mile of any major studio is going to be a nightmare. WE HAVE NOTHING TO DO. /End ID]

[Image ID: A tweet from Shawna Benson (@shawnabenson) from July 13th, 2023 that reads:

Day 73 for WGA.

Day Zero for SAG (a lot of people will count it as Day One, and rightfully so).

WE are waiting for the AMPTP to negotiate in good faith. They can't ignore most of our demands (decline to counter) and say we walked away from the table.

THE STUDIOS did this.

2 and 16 for the book asks!

2. Answered!

16. How many books have you read this year?

Hmmm 5? 6? I've read Loveless by Alice Oseman, The Heiress by Molly Greeley, The Murder Next Door, by Sarah Bell, Windfall, by Shawna Barnett, and I'm currently reading Monstrous Heart by Claire McKenna, but I feel like I'm leaving something out? Putting a book out has def slowed down my reading schedule.

The Melancholy of the Lost First Read

New Blog Post! "The Melancholy of the Lost First Read" #reading #writing #readingfiction

This is going to be a reflective thought piece. I’ve finally gotten back into reading for pleasure after spending almost a decade in graduate school where the overwhelming majority of my reading was dry, plodding academic non-fiction. Currently, I’m reading Shawna Barnett’s Windfall, which is a pirate fantasy. And as I’ve read through the story’s development, it got me thinking about one classic…

Spotify prezentuje najnowsze muzyczne trendy z czasu izolacji

245 procent więcej playlist z piosenkami na wakacje, 2 750 list odtwarzania słuchanych w trakcie pieczenia chleba bananowego oraz znaczny wzrost nowych list towarzyszących domowym obowiązkom i nabywaniu nowych umiejętności to tylko niektóre z nowych trendów odnotowanych przez Spotify podczas izolacji. Sprawdź co jeszcze się zmieniło w upodobaniach słuchaczy. Na przełomie kwietnia i maja Spotify zanotował około 50-procentowy wzrost ilości playlist zawierających słowa kluczowe takie jak „fryzjer” czy „farbowanie włosów”. Jak wynika z analizy, wśród najpopularniejszych utworów dedykowanych tym, którzy zajmują się dbaniem o nasze fryzury w Polsce znalazły się „Tamagotchi” Taconafide, „Dance Monkey” Tones and I, „Eluwina” Kacpra Błońskiego, „Happier” autorstwa Bastille i Marshmello, „bad guy” Billie Eilish, „8 Kobiet Remix” Bedoesa i Taconafide oraz „@ (trailer)” chilwagonu. W okresie od 17 kwietnia do 17 maja zaobserwowano ponad 1400 procentowy wzrost liczby list odtwarzania tworzonych do słuchania w trakcie pracy z domu (w porównaniu z pierwszą dekadą marca). W tym czasie użytkownicy na całym świecie wykonywali swoje profesjonalne działania w rytmach „Work From Home” autorstwa Fifth Harmony (feat. Ty Dolla $ign), „9 do 5” Dolly Parton, „Blinding Lights” The Weeknd, „Light On” Maggie Rogers, „10.000 hours” Dan + Shay (z Justinem Bieberem), „Boss Bitch”" Doja Cat, „Delicate” Taylor Swift i „The Less I Know the Better” Tame Impala. Rośnie również popularność sonat Beethovena i Bacha oraz „Für Elise”" w wykonaniu pianisty Lang Langa. O 1000 proc. wzrosła również ilość playlist o tematyce związanej z nauką w domu, co pokazuje, jak muzyka pomaga zarówno rodzicom, jak i uczniom poradzić sobie z wyzwaniami zdalnego nauczania. Wśród najpopularniejszych utworów na listach odtwarzania na całym świecie znalazły się takie piosenki jak: „Supalonely” BENEE i Gus Dapperton, „Sucker” Jonas Brothers, „Circles” Post Malone oraz „Don't Start Now” Duy Lipy. Nauka to jednak nie wszystko! Jak wynika z opracowania, liczba playlist skupionych wokół komputerowej gry symulacyjnej Animal Crossing New Horizons również wzrosła o 1000 procent. W czasie izolacji część użytkowników poświęca czas wolny na odkrywanie i rozwijanie swoich pasji, co wpłynęło na 40-procentowy wzrost ilości playlist dedykowanych kolorowaniu i ponad 90-procentowy malowaniu. Jak wynika z zestawień, użytkownicy na świecie słuchają wówczas „Shape Of You” Eda Sheerana, z kolei Polscy słuchacze wybierają utwory Macieja Maleńczuka takich jak „Wakacje z Blondynką”, „Dawna dziewczyno” w wersji live czy „Barman”. Izolacja sprzyja również gotowaniu i pieczeniu co widać po statystykach zanotowanych w serwisie Spotify! Użytkownicy platformy stworzyli w ostatnim czasie o 120 procent więcej playlist poświęconych pieczeniu, a w okresie między 17 kwietnia a 17 maja sama ilość list odtwarzania dedykowanych chlebkowi bananowemu wzrosła o około 225 procent - do 2 750 playlist obecnie. Wśród utworów, które najczęściej pojawiały się w tych playlistach znalazły się „Sunday Best” Surfaces, „Banana Pancakes” Jacka Johnsona, „Watermelon Sugar” Harry'ego Stylesa, „Sugar” Maroon 5 czy „everything i wanted” Billie Eilish. Spędzając czas w domu, nie sposób uniknąć sprzątania, jednak z ulubioną muzyką domowe obowiązki mogą stać się przyjemnością! Ten czas Polacy umilają sobie, odtwarzając m.in.: „Toxic” Britney Spears, „Małomiasteczkowy” Dawida Podsiadło, „Uptown Funk” Bruno Marsa i Marka Ronsona, „Don’t Start Now” Duy Lipy czy „Señorita” w wykonaniu Camili Cabello i Shawna Mendesa. W serwisie Spotify znajduje się obecnie 940 tysięcy playlist dedykowanych porządkom, które w ciągu ostatniego miesiąca były odsłuchiwane o 65 procent częściej, a ich ilość wzrosła o 40 procent. Idzie lato, a co za tym idzie poświęcamy więcej czasu dbaniu o balkony, tarasy i ogrody, które w czasie wolnym mogą zastąpić wakacyjny resort. Przygotowując się na ciepłe wieczory i słoneczne dni ilość playlist towarzyszących użytkownikom w trakcie prac ogrodowych wzrosła o ponad 430 proc.. Użytkownicy w tym czasie najchętniej słuchają „Gardening At Night” R.E.M, „Avant Gardener” Courtney Barnett, „Mr. Blue Sky” Electric Light Orchestra oraz „Sunflower” autorstwa Post Malone i Swae Lee. Z każdym stopniem celsjusza rośnie również czas, który słuchacze poświęcają na stworzenie idealnej składanki na wakacje, co wpłynęło na 245 procent więcej playlist z muzyką na lato. O ile nie stwierdzono inaczej, wszystkie dane zostały zebrane w okresie od 17 kwietnia do 17 maja 2020 roku. Tam, gdzie wykazano wzrost procentowy, porównano dane z okresu od 17 kwietnia, do 17 maja do ostatniego tygodnia lutego 2020 roku. O ile nie podano inaczej, dane są globalne.
