Greg Edgelow: Maxx with Scott Moir and Tessa Virtue at Canadian Winter Olympic figure skating team announcement at UBC. They thought Maxx was the official mascot. he was happy to be given that designation, even though it wasn’t official. Here’s a kiss for good luck to Tessa, and it worked.!

There's legal silence where you keep sensitive information to yourself. And there's silence where you don't even say "please be patient we'll update you in time, we're actually talking to the union/the admins/the intern team". For us viewers, we don't need to know more than to have the assurance that things are being taking care of. We don't need to be repeated the exact same info I différent words over and over again.

There's silence with your team where you want to be careful with your wording. And there's silence with your team where you keep them completely in the dark about their future, not even saying what they just need to hear: "sorry about how things turned out, we have no certainty in either taking you back or not, right now our priority is financial stability, we cannot tell you our différent options so far, but we'll update you when and if we can afford to take you back".

There's silence where you ask for discretion because you will not be able to keep that many people in the team and don't want leaks about what branches are kept and which one will close, then announcing to a whole group of admins that they'll be let out of the project starting this or this day. And there's silence where you warn a lot of twitter update admins that they won't be in the project starting immediately through discord and closing said discours before everyone had even a chance to read it.

There's silence where you're afraid of leaks and there's silence where you don't treat people working for you with respect.

#qsmp admins #qsmp neg #quackity studios #quackity neg #im sorry but at this pount donr even bother making an annoucement #if all you wanna do is repeat yourslef #look we KNOW youre working on finances and cant make promises about the eggs #but we've been asking about the merch money and being transparant about that wont hurt legally #unless you plan about telling us one thing to please us and doing another once we bought them #we KNOW some people might use every thing to harm the project #we ask if you or your team are actually talking to the people concerned #we KNOW you dont want leaks #we ask to be sure you treat the people who dedicated so much to your dream project as allies and not as enemies #i trusted q at first #but if he just wants to repeat homself and not acknowledge anything then i cant trust him no more #qsmp you have been a winderful adventure but it stops here for me

I can't actually get my head around how much 'oh Steph is also on the team...just Steph' has altered my feelings and conception of this potential book.

Because Irey, Jai and Maxine plus PJ Holt and Quiz Kid is...pretty much a line-up that looked possible from what Adams had been setting up. And adding multiverse Damian and Jon (as seen in The Flash #797) is presumably there to sell comics by onloading SuperSons fans who miss them both being little kids.

And look? I lost my heart on the fact that Cerdian and Robert Long were also back, because Irey, Jai, Cerdian and Robbie made for a Titans Generation 2.0 team. But given they don't seem to be pursuing the Cerdian or Robbie resurrections, it's very much not that as a concept.

I knew I was dreaming at the time, but it was the closest I've seen DC get to a concept that I've been reading and fantasising about for almost two decades now.

So, looking at it as an under-15s team...I still don't get Steph. I don't get the value to Steph as a character of putting her in charge of this team. I don't get the value of adding Steph to any of the other characters, either. Not only does it further isolate her (she still basically has no connections her own age outside of Bat characters), but the presumed relationship they're drawing on here (Steph and Damian from Batgirl 2009, given the scheduled reprint):- that's not the same Steph or the same Damian. And look, I presume we are going to get a few panels canonising Steph and Damian's relationship in Batgirl 2009 in this, but at present from my understanding that's still just a possible past they have, not a confirmed one.

And, if they use the Damian and Jon from The Flash, this is a completely random other Damian from elsewhere in the multiverse. Does he have any existing relationship with Steph? Does he have the same relationship with Steph? Are they going to create additional unseen backstory in this alternate universe for Damian and Steph? We don't know! But Steph, if she's the main universe Steph, isn't going to know or remember whatever relationship this other Damian has with her. So even asking her to babysit this team on the basis that she has history with a young Damian doesn't fit, because these are not the same characters as when that happened. They don't have the same pasts.

Also, assuming a character who has no connections to anyone else on the team (aside from Damian), who has basically never been on a team that wasn't composed of Bats, who has very little experience working with kids with power sets...is interested and a good choice to babysit/supervise this team of children with cosmic level powers? It doesn't say a lot about Steph's actual character being considered.

It's just... Cass is currently getting to be an adult on an adult level team on the basis of her skills and background and treated as worthy there. Steph appears to be getting pigeonholed as a babysitter because they can't hang her off Tim anymore (due to the breakup) and they can't hang her off Cass anymore (given Cass is currently appearing in serious books with major league characters), so... someone went 'oh she has an existing relationship with Damian!' (that was last prominent pre-Flashpoint).

#look I will give it a try #and we're all still hypothesising off bare character annoucements #but I cannot overlook the fact that this will probably not even be Steph and Damian FROM THE SAME UNIVERSE #Also Jeremy Adams and Si Spurrier presumably aren't discussing plot directions at the moment #given Jai's having a 'maybe I don't want to be a hero' plot at the moment #which is just...weird given they're proposing a whole team for him

[oifaaa]

Actually originally Dick Grayson had been depicted as in his like 20s for a while before he became Nightwing, Nightwing wasn't meant to age Dick up, it was a reaction to the fact that he already had because other people wanted Robin to be a child.

Sorry should of made it clear I was talking about like most common canon since dcs always been screwy with ages I'm also pretty sure it's the current Canon that dick became Nightwing at about 18/19 and that he's been Nightwing for about 10 years

#ask #anon #currect me if im wrong tho #dc likes to do their age fuckery thing #like when they tried to fit all of batmans time as batman into 15 years #or recently when they said jimmy olwsen is only 22 #tho i think the marketing team behind the insta account #just didnt put much thought into that one #still funny to watch articles come out saying #dc annouces canon ages of some characters #like guys please your embarrassing yourselves #it was just a silly little valentines post

Red is pov like actually like we might have a chance if we graciously ignore orange and lime // I LOVE THIS TE A M.

Orange is um... way too OP for the event so far like scott what were you thinking with this unless you have something to counter this team idk what to tell everyone else

Yellow! FBM and Gem sounds realllll fun and obviously this time we have Antvenom returning which is super fun and jimmy, jimmy is in the event, cheers

Lime.......... now once again "????????????????????????????????????" most random lineup ever but slay! Looking forward to SB's return to the event and Bek and Impulse teaming with Mr Berries

Very much feeling doomed if the emoji netflix uk drops tomorrow isn't for lockwood & co but ALSO.. they just did a thread with new shows, so what if they'll also do one for renewals—

#realistically i should have known this from the start with netflix's track record #but i've still been hopeful because what else is there to do!!! #it's just so upsetting because we have a perfect cast and perfect team behind it all that GETS the books #my other fear though is they wait until the end of the year to annouce it's even c*ncelled #idk if complete fiction has complete control if netflix doesnt pick up a second season #but the longer they wait the less chance there would be to move it elsewhere #all around bad situation!!!!! #this close to being done with tv shows because i'm so tired of the renewal game #flythepost

btw literally fuck the nhl. i can't believe they are making such a backwards choice.

#if you don't know what i'm talking about: #today the nhl annouced next season they are banning teams from wearing pride (and other specialty) jerseys during warmup #because they're a 'distraction' #i hope teams do it regardless because what the fuck #ramblings

i'm yet to actually watch (puella magi star kaomoji) madoka magica (will probably do after my final exams week) but i feel like i can say that with homura's speech about love being "more passionate than hope and deeper than despair" and turning into literal devil just to make the "girl she loves" happy and safe...

either those two are lesbians or they have a very very extremely devoted friendship. because i swear to God.

whole team day today! that means asks that are about everybody in general (like the “everybody’s favorite food” ask we did the other day), or something along those lines. the mods like collabing on those so it’s just a fun old time for everyone or something like that. thanks!

newer stories reporting the business partner of the first guy is also helming the adaptation - he wrote and directed saw, which is a prestigious point to him in terms of cultural staying power ig

#but i still feel apprehensive that most of the creative team annouced has experience almost exclusively in adult horror #will the 11-14s be able to get into it like the original or is it being pitched on catering to a millenial's nostalgia factor?

Seven thousand more UAW members just walked off the job, expanding the strike to two more plants. Twenty-five thousand autoworkers are now on strike, and the walkout could continue to escalate if the Big Three don’t budge in negotiations.

[UAW president Shawn] Fain announced that Stellantis would be spared this time. The union had been expected to strike all three companies, but, said Region 1 director LaShawn English, three minutes before Fain was scheduled to go on Facebook Live, the UAW received frantic emails from company representatives.

[Note: Love that for the UAW. Also laughing so hard. Three minutes before the next round of strikes were annouced!!]

According to Fain, Stellantis made “significant progress” on cost-of-living allowances, the right not to cross a picket line, and the right to strike over product commitments and plant closures. “We are excited about this momentum at Stellantis and hope it continues,” Fain said...

“See You Next Week — Maybe?”

“These guys wanted to go out a long time ago,” said Cody Zaremba, a Local 602 member at the Lansing GM plant after the news broke that his plant would be joining the strike. “We’re ready. Everybody, truly, I believe, in the entire membership. They’re one with what’s going on.”

Five thousand workers at thirty-eight parts distribution centers across twenty-one states have been on strike since last Friday [September 22, 2023], along with thirteen thousand at three assembly plants in Michigan, Ohio, and Missouri who walked out on September 15. (See a map of all struck facilities here.) ...

The UAW is now calling on community supporters to organize small teams to canvass dealerships that sell and repair Big Three cars and trucks. On Tuesday, the union issued a canvassing tool kit with instructions, flyers, press releases, and talking points.

In negotiations with Ford and GM, autoworkers have clinched some important gains. Among them is an agreement by both companies to end at least one of the many tiers in current contracts, putting workers at certain parts plants back on the same wage scale as assembly workers. The top rate for Big Three assembly workers is currently around $32...

Ford was spared in last week’s escalation, because bargainers there had made further progress on gains for workers.

But today, the UAW once again called out workers at Ford and GM, putting some muscle behind its bold demands — a big wage boost, a shorter workweek, elimination of tiers, cost-of-living adjustments tied to inflation, protection from plant closures, conversion of temps to permanent employees, and the restoration of retiree health care and benefit-defined pensions to all workers.

Keep Them Guessing

This year, for the first time in recent history, the union has played the three auto companies against each other with its strike strategy, departing from the union’s tradition of choosing one target company and patterning an agreement at the other two.

The stand-up strike strategy draws inspiration from an approach known as CHAOS (Create Havoc Around Our System), first deployed in 1993 by Alaska Airlines flight attendants, who announced they would be striking random flights. Although they struck only seven flights in a two-month period, Alaska had to send scabs on every plane, just in case. The unpredictability drew enormous media attention and drove management up the wall. Meanwhile the union was able to conserve its strength and minimize risk.

The companies miscalculated where the UAW was going to strike first, stockpiling engines and shipping them cross-country to the wrong facilities. Autoworkers relished the self-inflicted supply chain chaos on UAW Facebook groups and other social media platforms.

Nonstrikers’ morale on the factory floor has gotten a boost from rank and filers organizing to refuse voluntary overtime. With support both from Fain and the reform caucus Unite All Workers for Democracy (UAWD), workers have been encouraging each other to “Eight and Skate,” meaning to turn down extra work and decline to do management any favors.

Majority Public Support

A majority of Americans support the UAW strikers, and the Big Three have taken a PR hit since the strike began, according to a new survey conducted by the business intelligence firm Caliber.

“Eighty-seven percent of respondents told us they were aware of the strike,” Caliber CEO Shahar Silbershatz told the Intercept. “It’s clear the strike is not just causing commercial repercussions, but reputational repercussions as well.”

These reputational repercussions will only worsen...

"We Can Unmake It"

Fain didn't pull any punches in his speech... “That’s what’s different about working-class people. Whether we’re building cars or trucks or running parts distribution centers; whether we’re writing movies or performing TV shows... we do the heavy lifting. We do the real work. Not the CEOs, not the executives.

"And though we don’t know it, that’s what power is. We have the power. The world is of our making. The economy is of our making. This industry is of our making.

“And as we’ve shown, when we withhold our labor, we can unmake it.”
