All media mergers end up hurting writers, actors, directors, and everyone else who works in the industry. Executives, assistants, caterers, teamsters, everyone. Fewer companies means fewer jobs, period.

Almost like gambling is an inherently corrupt business that destroys everything it touches.
I'm SHOCKED, SHOCKED that this sort of thing is happening in America.

heads up, writers—this is the new version of the “I turned your webcam on and I have a video of you jerking off” scam
New extortion scam email going round (this was received via a writer's website contact form). I've seen a number of these recently but without the money demand; the translation angle is also a new one

The death of traditional masculine physical contact absolutely sucks, and it's even worse because IT'S HISTORICALLY MASCULINE to touch, hug, hold hands and laugh together, and it was taken away due to gay panic. The loss of hugs and physical intimacy among men hurt EVERYONE.
