From Hunter S. Thompson’s ESPN page 2 column one week after 9/11.
We are At War now, according to President Bush, and I take him at his word. He also says this War might last for "a very long time." Generals and military scholars will tell you that eight or 10 years is actually not such a long time in the span of human history - which is no doubt true - but history also tells us that 10 years of martial law and a wartime economy are going to feel like a Lifetime to people who are in their twenties today. The poor bastards of what will forever be known as Generation Z are doomed to be the first generation of Americans who will grow up with a lower standard of living than their parents enjoyed. That is extremely heavy news, and it will take a while for it to sink in. The 22 babies born in New York City while the World Trade Center burned will never know what they missed. The last half of the 20th century will seem like a wild party for rich kids, compared to what's coming now. The party's over, folks.

It's finally here!!

This was an incredibly long and tough agreement to bargain, under extremely difficult market conditions.

I'm happy to see it complete. I grieve for what we had to trade away, and I'm proud of the protections we were able to win against all odds. ❤️

We have a (tentative) Deal!

WildBrain workers bargained for more than a year with their bosses to bring this agreement home!

From the lowest point our industry has seen in more than a decade, WildBrain workers have pulled together a solid union contract. Let's redraw our industry together!
An illustration of a large black and white speech bubble shouts "We Have a (tentative) Deal!". There is an illustrated "W" where the upraised parts are fists of solidarity in the lower right corner. The background is a bright and cheerful blue, with the CAG 938 logo in the upper left corner.Below the speech bubble reads "WildBrain workers and the employer have reached a tentative agreement after over a year of negotiations". On the bottom of the image is a yellow banner that reads "now what? learn more @ wb-ratification.info".

At a Burbank animation guild event 10 years ago: a friend spoke of putting in 10-20 unpaid hours a week. The Union boss kindly told him that if 2-3 people did the same they were stopping one other person from working - a form of scab labour. It hadn't even occurred to him to think of it like that.
