I found the exact day the House fandom mobilized me to do my first ever intentional activism, at age 16: mailing a pencil to the President of Fox.

Amid a wave of layoffs sweeping across the media industry, writers and editors at CBS News Digital have formed a union with WGA East for the purpose of collective bargaining. An “overwhelming” majority of CBS News Digital’s 46-member bargaining unit signed union cards on Monday, Feb. 5, according to WGA East — and they are asking management to recognize the union. The union covers workers at CBS News digital platforms including CBSNews.com, its mobile website, social-media channels and the CBS News app.

I was initially sad there wasn't a screenwriter Barbie in the women in film collection just because I would like to purchase a screenwriter Barbie. But um having a studio executive Barbie in lieu is a choice.
I'm an adult collector, but I wouldn't be if I didn't still play with them. What the fuck am i supposed to do with a studio executive doll 😆

It’s probably the least problematic thing about the Golden Globes comedy last night, but the audacity to PUT DOWN AND BLAME THE WRITERS right after we just watched the writers and actors strikes just to make livable wages this past year is not it.
