The point of the strike is that the writers are trying to get a fair share of the money they bring in for those corporate fucks, and also secure some protections for their jobs against AI. I agree that there’s a ton of old content available, but I selfishly do want to see new things come out, and less selfishly this is impacting regular people who work on these shows (technicians, set designers, caterers, plenty of people aside from the Corporate Fucks). I hope the writers get a fair deal soon.

I always wanted a furby and maybe now that I’m a grown adult I’ll finally get one lol. Although any time I see a furby now I’m reminded of this scene from Mitchell’s vs the Machines.

I like those projects where people have attached a raspberry pi to the old furbies to turn them into cool things, I wonder if that will be possible with these new ones?
