The writers strike is finally over. Here’s what we won.
Went on CNN to explain why writers are striking, ended up roasting their bosses’ salary.
New video essay — How Unions CRUSH Capitalists — up on YouTube. We talk billionaires, hustle culture, labor history, and how to unionize.
We did it. We have a tentative deal.
Over the coming days, we’ll discuss and vote on it, together, as a democratic union. But today, I want to thank every single WGA member, and every fellow worker who stood with us in solidarity. You made this possible. Thank you. #WGAStrong @writersguildwest

Writers just voted 99% in favor of to ratifying our new contract, officially bringing an end to the strike. I’m still processing my emotions, so here’s a dump from the last two weeks:
1) thousands of writers giving our Chief Negotiator @ellestn a standing ovation at the Palladium
2) hugging @angelinaburnett, my sister forever
3) our incredible Director of Research Laura Blum-Smith getting the ovation she deserves
4-6) the Negotiating Committee and staff who led us steadfastly through the strike. Will be grateful to these folks for the rest of my life
7) with @whipsical. I gave her her first writing job on ARE, and it’s been such a joy to watch her grow into one of the most impactful members of our Guild. Now someone hire this woman – she’s an incredible writer!
Thank you to everyone who made this possible. STRIKES WORK, pass it on!
