Film workers will get better working conditions, and we won't have more buzz about Marvel movies. It's a win-win.
Also a good amount of productions were already halted due to the WGA strike that has been ongoing for 70 days. Unionize, y'all!

Good bot.
First I've heard of Piped, found LibreTube on FDroid, it works great. Cheers!

The circuses have stopped, they better hope the bread keeps going.

Bread stopped in 2020. They better revive those Gracchi brothers already.

Will be funny if the actually change/revolution start because of this. Television losing their gods, this winter brand new panic: 'Darling I can't find anything new to watch on Netflix, bring me the letal poison pill".

Between this and the story about people being unable to afford food, we might be hitting the "bread and circuses" tipping point

Listen to the union president’s speech (forgot her name). What she says resonates with all workers. AI will be coming for other jobs next, most white collar roles can be impacted in the next decades.

Automation has been steadily taking jobs for decades.
One accountant with a bit of software can do what used to take dozens of more.
People only get pissed when it affects them.
The first bit of software I wrote at my job straight out of university reduced stock taking from 5 people over a week to two people in two days.
It's the way of the world.

I really appreciate Dan Murrell's perspectives on the strikes. He's worked with these people and is really good at getting into the heads of the companies.
