rethink your weekend. Harder liquor on an emptier stomach is just what you need. Trust me, I’m a doctor.

have now seen multiple posts abt cancelling streaming subscriptions in support of iatse, but also have seen multiple posts with conflicting information about when to cancel them, how long to cancel them, which sites specifically, etc etc

now, i am not an iatse member (fingers crossed for the future tho lol), but it sorta... didn't seem like the ppl making those posts were either. the lack of unity in the message, among other things.

so i looked up the iatse strike and specifically for announcements and news articles wrt cancelling streaming subscriptions:

hey look at that, they have a toolkit

as of right now (round about 12:30 am est, 10/15/21) the main action they are asking for is to sign the petition. also, to actively spread the word and show support on social media (seems mainly angled toward twitter so may not be usable here but still good to have, and oh look they also have a twitter where you can keep up with the latest news, like the bullshit happening in response to the strike)

does this mean don't cancel any of your subscriptions? not necessarily! some iatse members, independently, have decided to cancel their own subscriptions, so you're most likely not hurting the movement if you do, and you might even help! (might i suggest making it very clear to the website you're cancelling your subscription to about why you are cancelling it? fill out the 'why are you leaving us' questionnaire. send an email. that is only a suggestion as an individual tho, again this is not something the union has requested, this is mostly me being paranoid bcos u kno how companies like to come up with reasons they lost membership lol.)

but mmmmmaybe uh. maybe prioritize the things the union has asked people to do. bcos most of those posts i saw didn't even mention the petition, and not one linked to the official iatse toolkit with the like, official hashtags they're using to draw attention to this.

IATSE member here!

As of right now (early morning 10/15), our locals have not officially said anything about cancelling streaming services.

Definitely check out the toolkit, sign the petition, and if you’re on Instagram, check out and follow ia_stories! There and the IATSE Twitter account will keep you up to date with any changes and requests on how to help support us if we do strike Monday.

Visibility is key right now. The studios continue to bank on people being oblivious, or making us look like the bad guys for “being greedy” and “making you wait for your favorite shows”.

Visibility and sharing helps not only support our cause, but also helps prevent other non-IATSE members from crossing the line. There’s been talk of studios reach out to film students across the country to get them to replace us, which is NOT OKAY for so many reasons. Other productions are scheduling jam-packed 6th and 7th days this weekend to try to get whatever they can before we go dark. Also super NOT OKAY.

But yeah, I’m glad to see enthusiasm and support for us and what we’re fighting for. We love our jobs and creating for everyone. Which is why we want it to be safer, healthier, and reflecting of our time and skill.

IATSE members striking- union tv, film and streaming service workers

IATSE members not striking- those working on HBO and Showtime contracts since their contracts are not up until 12/31

This is an example of two things.

1) amazing focus 

2) some sort of post-modern, absurdist geopolitical commentary

this, THIS is the 2021 mood

[adorkadora]

Ok, but the first time I saw this, the description said she intentionally set up her class here in order to film what happened without being killed for it / so she could put it on the internet. I believe it also said this wasn’t the first time she’s done this.
