“I urge us striking at the same time as the writers to change the awful inequity of money and power in film and television. I remember when we went on strike in 1960, the only time writers and actors struck at the same time. That strike got us film residual checks. A monumental change.

This moment is important and unusual, not to be missed.”

-Lois Smith, SAG-AFTRA member

I grew up in the UK in the 1980s in a town where they would test the air attack siren every year. I joined CND. I watched Threads. At school. I still sometimes wake crying from nightmares caused by growing up at that point in the Cold War.

So that’s one social media app I’m going to mute mentions of over here.
