#so they can fly together!!!!

[chirpsythismorning]

This is everything the Stranger Things writers have posted publicly about the WGA strike:

TIMELINE

May 3rd:

Stranger Things writer Caitlin Schneiderhan tweets picture from personal Twitter account of sign from the strike that reads 'Pay us or Steve Harrington is toast'

May 6th:

Official Stranger Writers Twitter account makes post on behalf of the Duffers Brothers. They have since pinned this tweet to their profile. "Duffers here. Writing does not stop when filming begins. While we're excited to start production with our amazing cast and crew, it is not possible during this strike. We hope a fair deal is reached soon so we can all get back to work. Until then -- over and out. #wgastrong

Bonus:

May 12th:

Stranger Things writer Kate Trefry posts picture from personal Tumblr account of sign that reads, 'Byler won’t write itself'

As far as I know, the two writers that posted on their personal socials are the only writers from ST that even have personal accounts that are public, whereas the rest of the writers do not.

What does make me take a pause though, is that, while yes they did post these pictures from their personal accounts, which is about as official as it gets, they also cryptically did not include themselves in said pictures...

This just got me thinking about how Stranger Things is quite literally Netflix and vise versa. They are practically one in the same, where one without the other just doesn't make sense.

While this conflict of interest might run deep for many writers out there fearing to speak out against their employer, for us, the consumers, the fans, we as a collective have so much more power than we realize.

In contrast to the writers, streamers can't just fire their consumer base sometime down the line, out of spite for speaking out. Without consumers, neither Stranger Things nor Netflix would be what it is today.

We have the affordance of being able to speak up the loudest of anyone. And so why wouldn't we take advantage of that?

There are so many people out there protesting: writers, actors, others in the industry and even outside of it who are also taking a stand, many who need support so that they can continue to fight in the upcoming days, weeks, months, without being deterred by corporations that are making them feel greedy for demanding a contract that at most, asks that they be paid fairly.

And so I want to encourage anyone that is reading this, but fellow fans of Stranger Things especially, who have so much power in this strike when it comes to getting Netflix's attention, to consider taking the time to do whatever you can individually + with the masses as a community in order to best support the strike.

Follow the Strike! If you're active on various social media already, please be sure to follow the official accounts advocating for the strike via Instagram (@writersguildwest/@wgaeast), via Twitter (@WGAWest/@WGAEast). Engage with posts from folks that are out there daily, many with whom you can find by following tags like #WGAStrong, #WGAStrike and #WritersStrike. Although most fans are not able to join in picketing themselves, we can at least recognize all of those out there's individual efforts and do our best to show that we're paying attention and listening!

Spread the word! Show support any way you can by sharing posts and articles about the strike, or even fun memes to inform others in a more engaging way. This is the official site for the WGA strike if you want to learn more about what’s going on before diving in! And make sure to stay up-to-date here as things continue to unfold!

Donate! The Entertainment Community Fund is endorsed by the WGA for anyone that wants to support those affected by the strike financially. And this thread on Twitter is an incredible resourse, as it provides an ‘easy, one-click, stress-free, accessible-to-all-budgets’ ways you can support folks on the front lines.

Also! Consider donating through this link for the Entertainment Community Fund, where the money donated still goes directly to that fund, this is just an organizing page for Stranger Things fans specifically! By allowing fans to see how much of an impact we make as a collective, in real time, this could encourage even more ST fans to want to contribute. In a best case scenario, if this GoFundMe were to reach impressive proportions of donations from fans, that could lead to news outlets reporting on it, which could allow an opportunity for even more eyes on the strike, while also even more importantly being able to provide financial support to those that need it.

Trend! On social media, use #StrangerFansforWGA to trend or even just to reach other fans also looking to come together to support the strike!

While I know this post probably wont reach anywhere outside of Tumblr, I want to make a point to encourage those of you that are on other platforms to inform fans in those spaces about the strike and what they can do to help!

We might not all agree on everything, but I think we can agree on at least one thing... @Netflix & all major streamers and networks out there, who are still refusing to make a fair deal: PAY YOUR WRITERS!

In the mean time, if you're interested in working on different ideas for initiates we can carry out as a fandom, please reach out to me! I might only one person and I might not have all the answers and solutions, but I do know that with more of us working together, our odds of making an impact are much greater!

Over and out!

#byler #stranger things #strangerfansforwga #wga strike #writers strike #st writers #duffer brothers #twitter #tiktok #reddit #netflix #PAY YOUR WRITERS #I am more than happy to discuss ideas for how we can come together as a fandom to have an impact #things we can do and work together to accomplish #anyone that already has personal initiatives for fans related to the strike please reblog with details if you want and i will share! #i know some fans were donating funds in exchange for artprints with their owrk #stuff like that is wonderful #supporting artists regardless is so important and so anything like that I would love to know about! #also i would not be against getting money for blimp to fly over netflix calling out ted sarandos #blip... #full disclosure i have just donated $29 to the entertainment community fund through the gofundme! #right now we are over halfway to the $500 goal #hoping the gofundme can reach its goal sooner than later #that way the money can be allocated instead of just sitting there #to those that can't donate!?

How would Starlo's family react to this new monster kid that is a cross between a fox, bird, and whatever Starlo is? Cause I'm just saying, Clover does share his tail, side head things, and yellow spots with Starlo, so it's safe to assume that Clover related to Starlo, from their perspective at least.

Or do they already know about the whole situation?

Either way, I'm imagining Starlo's parents looking at Clover and thinking "this is probably the closest we'll get to grandkids" and just start doting him.

IM SO GLAD U ASKED ABOUT THEM BC I WAS THINKING HOW SWEET THEY WOULD BE!!!! and then i got to draw it >:]

they are so smitten with clover after they get introduced by starlo. they kind of met with clover in the underground and after starlo told them all what happened, they respected clover a lot and saw the change they made to ceroba and star. so once theyre back they’re like welp. new grandchild!

orion (i think thats his name?) is like the older cousin u have that just thinks the younger kids are cringe. he cares but does not show it at all. crestina is NOT letting starlo say anything bad to clover. solomon big fun grandpa :]

#asked and answered #monster clover au #mcau doodle #mcau lore #i imagine the talk between star and his family is like #‘they look a lot like you and ceroba and martlet. did you guys get together? and you decided to make a child without letting us know??’ #‘was it an accident. please be honest’ #starlo: what. what. what are you talking about #(i imagine monsters are made through magic. so kids can have multiple parents. i cant remember if there was a canon way but this is my au #AND POLYAMORY KIDS ARE REAL HERE 💥) #also feeling the regret of making starlo lizardlike trying to design these guys on the fly

i love your v1mdk stuff so much i think it’s so cute but i cannot stop myself from thinking of owl just third wheeling constantly lol

technically i just avoid this by not drawing owl whenever i doodle them being very gay but. even when all 3 hang out i think 70% of the time is taken up by mdk and owl chatting with eachother so it balances out naturally. probably

#id in alt #ultrakill #v1mdk #v1 #mysterious druid knight #(and owl) #vm's art #i would feel bad about having owl be somewhere else alot of the time i draw them together HOWEVER #they had a million hours to talk to eachother endlessly in that fuckass coffin waiting puzzle #so i dont think owl would mind letting them chill alone for a little every once in a while. owl can have fun flying around in hell

Kingdom Hearts 0.2 Birth by Sleep - A Fragmentary Passage - Depths of Darkness

#kingdom hearts 0.2 birth by sleep a fragmentary passage #kh0.2 #depths of darkness #realm of darkness #my gif #they did a good job making the realm of darkness look distinct from the realm of light #because this place really does feel like nowhere we've ever been before #the rocky pathways with no sign of organic life make me feel like i'm on the moon or an alien planet #it's interesting how fallen worlds feel like they're all stitched together between areas like this #aqua can simply walk from place to place without needing a ship or keyblade glider to fly her to a new world #though who's to say how long it takes her to do all of that #as if the realm of darkness is one big ever growing expanse of land without any known boundaries between worlds #we know that all worlds used to be connected in the realm of light long ago and i'm guessing that's the case in the realm of darkness #it's never been split or fractured by keyblade wielders so it still follows its own rules and laws of nature #that'd be pretty interesting #we see this area start as a rocky wasteland that transitions into flat sandy terrain from the destiny islands #but you have to walk through a huge blinding light to get there first which is really unusual #it makes me think of how terra and aqua were guided to destiny islands by a bright light #and how destiny islands appears as a ball of light on the world select menu in bbs #but why portray it that way? we've been shown before what the world of destiny islands looks like from afar with the CoM world cards #and it's not like they even needed to include it on the world select screen in bbs because it's not a world you can even visit on your own #i don't know what it's all supposed to mean yet but #i believe the islands are more significant than we know at this time and this game continues to raise a lot of questions #it's certainly called 'destiny' islands for a reason

HEAR ME OUT

..celestial angel reader x foul legacy.

He feels like he’s some sort of demon bcs he’s abyssal and feels terrible for watching you from afar bcs in his mind you: a being of celestia, someone pure shouldnt be admired by a beast like him but he just cant take his eyes off you :((

oh anon, i am HEARING you

Legacy sees your light first of all, a glowing presence in the dark of night during one of his "outings". normally he only skirts the edge of one of the Abyss' entrances, not daring to go any further, but the glittering glow of your aura entrances him. he approaches slowly, trying to keep out of sight so he doesn't disturb your stargazing, until he's so close that the light reflects off his claws, tempting him to reach out and catch it. but the bush rustles and you sit upright with bright, sharp eyes, and Legacy lets out a surprised yelp as you stare at each other momentarily. his blood runs cold- he knows what you'll say, the disgusted expression that you'll make, because you're Celestial and he's Abyssal and they're destined to hate each other, forever

and yet, somehow, you smile instead, giving him a small wave and watching him dash away, back into the Abyss. Foul Legacy curls in on himself once he's returned to the darkness, seeing that lovely, calming light even when his eye is closed

he wants to see it- see you- again

by some miracle, you're there again the next night, waiting with a kind smile on your face. eagerly you stand when you see the Abyssal creature again, raising your hands to show you mean no harm when he flinches in surprise. you extend a hand and Foul Legacy slowly approaches; your divine aura reflects in his crystalline eye as he delicately sniffs your palm, then crouches, looking at you with awe. you clasp your hands together then open them, a pure white butterfly flying out and around the Abyssal beast's head, and he lets out a delighted chirp, lilac fluff ruffling in the breeze

you laugh, and he purrs, and a beautiful friendship begins to blossom

#genshin impact #childe #tartaglia #foul legacy #foul legacy childe #genshin tartagalia #genshin childe #genshin tartaglia #chit chat #anon #hey hey hey hey what if you also have wings but big feathered ones #so you and him can admire each others wings #and go flying together #your aura comforts him so much and he can't stop admiring the light even though he feels unworthy aaaaaa #short scenario #other's stuff

[inafieldofdaisies]

just so you know, monkey is my dog!!!!! Yes I will admit it we have copied! And we are truly sorry. All the hate comments isn’t necessary! But we do understand! We have deleted the blogs because we’ve realized what we’ve done. Please, understand this will not happen again.

Dropping these for anyone keeping up with the saga and asking if their accounts are gone for good, etc. My take is: they do not regret any of it, still refuse to admit it's just one person while taking subtle jabs at my post exposing them (ofc you wouldn't agree with something showing your wrongdoings). They also were well-aware they were doing something wrong way before I ever said anything, hence why the constant alt account making and deleting of posts, editing bios, switching faceclaims, you name it. My advice is to still be on the look-out for suspicious accounts following you in the near future, because they have the habit of popping back up.

To whoever is behind this really, I'd say making a new profile and adding a John ship that rips off Sabrina's little sister's name (Savannah Donovan, wrong spelling again, to be sneaky) is another level of low and shows how 'truly sorry' and aware of your actions you are. She is ten years old, for context, and John is the closest she gets to a father. So yeah, fucked all around. Especially since those two are always so precious in their interactions.

You're not sorry because you suddenly realized you did something wrong, just sorry because you got caught and called out. It's why you deleted everything, too. Also, I never thought I'd have to spell it out for ya Swiper, don't be coming into my DMs, asking for help after stealing and trying to rattle me by taking jabs at my characters. You made your bed, now lie in it. It's as simple as that.

[corfisers]

i really need to finish this one day

#one of my fave ideas but i keep getting stuck or starting over. third time's the charm hopefully #anyways. posting it as an excuse to rant because i'm losing my mind over this rn for no reason #incoherent but i just need to Talk or my brain won't shut up #you ever think about how fucked up it is that aoi feels guilty over what happened. i do. i think about her a lot #he can't even look at me. we aren't even blood related but he still had to go to jail because of me. i still love him #in reality none of it is her fault. it shouldn't be about doumeki in the first place. baby girl you were 15 when it happened. #you can say that yashiro is cruel in his dismissiveness (on the surface) of doumeki's trauma but you can see where he's coming from #you got a glimpse of what your sister was going through? of what i went through? and now you're sooo guilty over it? and who does it help? #doumeki's so focused on his own feelings that he ignored aoi when they were living together. “saves” her by pure chance #proceeds to focus on his guilt and ignore her again. if yashiro didn't get involved she'd be sitting in the rain for god knows how long #yet she still loves and to some degree idolizes him #yashiro and aoi both saying that doumeki isn't the type of person to be a yakuza too. doumeki's good doumeki's better than that #and then ch 24 happens. where yashiro says that he's going to throw up and doumeki's response is “i probably won't stop even if you do” #“guess i am like my father after all” and yashiro still goes “you're not. you're pure and im the problem” #(touches doumeki's face. rare gentle gesture. he's gentle afterwards too before leaving. man.) #he's not cruel enough to repeat what he said in the earlier conversation and he doesn't actually believe it anyway #but i wish yashiro was cruel there. it shouldn't have been about doumeki and his feelings. again. #something about yashiro throwing a knife at another person and it flying back at him huh #for all the talk about how doumeki supposedly romanticizes yashiro it really is the other way around. always has been #which is a whole other conversation but yeah. everything about aoi and yashiro in relation to doumeki makes me so fucking sad #but this is also what i mean when i say that aoi doesn't haunt the narrative per se but still has this weird presence? #she's in the parallels. she's in the brief but important mentions. she's in the “your sister was lucky she had you”. #wips tag

[quirinah]

oomf was talking about this combi and I remembered the season 25 episode where they interact for like 30 seconds. and then i got progressively more invested

#quirinahdraws #WHATEVERRRR *exploding* #nintama #nintama rantarou #忍たま乱太郎 #rkrn #nanamatsu koheita #tachibana senzou #i don’t know if i actually do ship them romantically but it’s a very fun idea to think about #Listen Listen Listen. Can anyone hear me. i just think koheita is way smarter than he looks (crazy person) #BUT REALLY. he’s quite knowledgeable and he’s very sincere and good and reading people but he’s also super intuitive #and makes most of his decisions on the spot based on how he reads a situation and how he feels so he’s difficult to keep up with #it would just be fun to see senzou whos also really smart! but likes being in control and looking unflappable and perfect #falling for a guy who he can’t read but who’s super sincere and encouraging nevertheless… (forlorn) #HE SAW THROUGH SABUROU’S DISGUISE OF SENZOU IN THE 5TH YEARS VS 6TH YEARS ARC CAN ANYONE HEAR MEEEEE (is dragged offstage) #こへ仙 #kohesen #but i think they would be a fun duo nevertheless! I can’t write dialogue but i saw someone way long ago talking about how it would be fun t #see senzou as the planner/espionage kind of strategist and koheita as the guy who gets in and gets stuff done… #OR PLANNING TOGETHER I can’t write dialogue but I like to think about koheita already having assessed the circumstance and just #cooking up a plan on the fly… #I do think senzou is kind of like monjirou where he’s a little bit of a softie at heart but he isn’t around koheita all the time like monji #so it might be fun to see him more flustered/being unable to read kohe….i want to see them get along too….

Wait does Yanqing know that Blade is his martial uncle

#*i* didn’t know that blade is his martial uncle for a while bc I didn’t pull blade and haven’t done jingliu’s story quest (planning soon) #anyway every time they’ve been on screen together yanqing has been Ready To Fight but jing yuan probably raised him to have manners so like #after finding out he greets him respectfully through gritted teeth like ‘…………shibo.’ #and blade Does Not Give A Flying Fuck. he doesn’t even remember who this kid is. that would rankle even more I think. #‘huh what’d this kid call me. oh right I had a shidi this must be his disciple. Whatever.’ #pika’s ramblings #honkai star rail #hsr #edit: played jingliu’s quest! ….so if I’m understanding right BLADE is the shidi #edit cont: since it looks like he didn’t learn jingliu’s swordsmanship until after he’d become an abomination of the abundance #edit cont: IF YOU CAN EVEN CALL THAT TEACHING………

Back from the protest....tore up my throat with all the hooting and hollering I partook in....it was freezing cold rainy weather the whole time😭all our hands and toes were numb. Eating some hot soup right now🔥in all seriousness I am so glad I live like a 16 minute drive from the capitol, and I'm so grateful that my dad and roommates attended with me. Nice to see how many people showed up and stayed despite the hostile weather.

#this was the first serious rally i ever attended. kind of a healing experience to be surrounded by so many other trans people #and to yell about our rights together for like 2 hours #and when we were scurrying back to our warm car my dad stopped to take a picture of another leaving stranger's sign #it was a heart colored in the pattern of the trans flag and it was running from the rain #and we were all heading to the same crosswalk but there were no cars and the sign guy said lets take to the streets #and we all ran out into the road in the rain and hoofed it back to the car #for me it was one of those moments where you can feel your spirit lifting out of you and flying like a dove
