Wow, you're getting residuals for DS9 all these years later? How does that work?
The WGA, the best union in the world, won residuals via a strike and now I get the checks (which they collect and disburse). Unions Forever!

Even though Mayim Bialik reportedly chose to stand down from her Jeopardy! hosting duties in the show’s final week in deference to the Writers Guild of America strike, the show will apparently go on. According to Deadline, Ken Jennings—the Jeopardy! legend with whom Bialik alternates hosting duties—will step up to the lectern “as a result of Bialik’s decision.” Representatives for Jennings did not immediately respond to The Daily Beast’s request for comment. Jeopardy! is a WGA show, Deadline reports, and some of its writers—including Michele Loud, Jim Rhine and Billy Wisse—have reportedly joined the picket line. (Writers completed their duties ahead of the season and the strike, the trade publication notes.)
Ken Jennings Crosses the Picket Line to Keep ‘Jeopardy!’ Running
We will all remember this, Ken. This town isn’t nearly as big as you think it is.
STOP TIPPING
Stop tipping. Not because people should “get a better job,” but because tipping culture has taken over everything. It keeps workers quiet instead of pushing for real wages.
When I worked at Buffalo Wild Wings, I tried to unionize. Nobody cared. they were making $300 a night and didn’t want to risk it. Tips made them complacent.
Stop feeding a system that keeps workers from fighting back. It has to get worse before it gets better.
I’m not some expert. I just see what’s happening.
Dark Horse's Workers are Unionizing with Dark Horse Workers United #unionstrong @darkhorseunion.bsky.social
Capitalism cannot exist without massive exploitation of the majority of the people on our planet.
Happy Labor Day to all of the laborers, tradespeople, and unions that actually produce what the wealth/power classes gorge upon. Workers of the World Unite!
