The guild’s insistence in achieving a minimum guaranteed staff level for episodic TV was considered an extreme long-shot when the contract discussions began in March.
They achieved a new-model streaming residual formula that should help fellow striking union SAG-AFTRA in its quest to achieve a revenue-based residual. The WGA’s formula amounts to a bonus system based on pre-determined, high-bar performance benchmarks for individual titles. But it’s nonetheless more than industry dealmakers predicted the guild would secure when the first round of WGA-AMPTP talks began in earnest last spring.
The nitty-gritty details of language around the use of generative AI in content production was one of the last items that the sides worked on before closing the pact.
They did it.
Solidarity works.
Unions are our only tool against capitalistic greed.

What's that one quote about how conservatives only ever support gun control when it's about any kind of minority owning the guns?

Divided and leaderless, Esther's friends scour Morgarai for any answers about the Disruptors, the devastating relic weapons so coveted by the Dark Magi. Vayne leads the Valet into the dreaded City of Odd, a place ruled over by an ancient evil, to find the only person living when the stones were forged. Meanwhile, Leiyara, alone and afraid, teams up with Emon on an impossible gambit to heal the rift between the Agish and Myrian people, but old enemies and new threats lie in wait for them.
Halfway across the world and hunted by her old order, Esther Triad seeks out the one man who can clear her name. However, in her search for him, the fugitive Peacekeeper discovers a desert town in the stranglehold of Central Transit. Her goals align with a band of outlaws intent on defying the corporate megastructure, but Esther is about to learn just what people will do for a few royals more.
