"When we barge into someone else’s house unannounced — particularly when we barge far enough in to learn intimate details about sleeping arrangements and nighttime attire — we have no one to blame but ourselves for the mental images that may plague us for the rest of our lives."

And a letter from a reader that drives home the importance of knocking, always knocking, when you show up early. Even if you have a key.

I’ve worked my whole life to break the stereo types that gay men suffer in society. I will not tolerate @fakedansavage calling me a F*GG*T! Dan buddy, that will yield you some legal fees at very least! 😉

South Korea has recognized the rights of a same-sex couple for the first time in the country’s history.

In the landmark decision, a Seoul court ruled that a gay couple is allowed the same health insurance rights as a heterosexual one.

(sorry i know the OP's point is that those are sucky working conditions and i don't want to diminish that but it's ALSO WHY SHOWS GOT WORSE. we still expect PLOT to continue and you can KIND OF graph that in advance but character is harder and it needs shepherding and adjusting!)

@meakoopa ("Anthony Oliveira") wrote:

it's hard to pace a season when you're not allowed to peek at each other's papers before they get turned in!!

in art we call this an "exquisite corpse" and it's why modern TV seasons often feel like this, with no one knowing what the other is drawing above and below the fold:

My biggest issue with the 10-12 epi season since it first emerged has been pacing. I could never wrap my head around how a show with *less* time could drag so badly. Now I get it. https://twitter.com/meakoopa/status/1656170502660972547

@meakoopa ("Anthony Oliveira") replied to a tweet by @meakoopa:

the material conditions of production affect the art! if you want better TV you need to support a writers room that has time to synthesize coherence and steer the product to its completion!! BE GREEDY ENOUGH TO DEMAND GOOD ART!

@meakoopa ("Anthony Oliveira") wrote:

(this practice is why shows often seem to have such jerky plots the last few years, with characters oddly characterized episode to episode - obsessed with something, then suddenly forgetting it, treated as tragedy one episode then comedy later. it's not the writers' fault.)

I was in a mini-room that ran for 4 weeks.

A few writers were expected to break an entire season - 10 episodes - in just 4 weeks.

the room ended and we were politely asked to write our episodes simultaneously, post-room. Unpaid for our time writing. 😒 https://twitter.com/wgawest/status/1656073460253347841

I’ve seen people complain that the tl is dominated by the writer’s strike and I need to add that this is because a majority of the funny twitter accounts with large followings belong to writers…and a lot of those writers also write jokes outside of twitter…for tv…for a living
