Daily reminder that the SFWA spent $100K+ to accomplish literally nothing

[HotDogJoe]

Nice decision making, stupids.

 

[Dummy Gaynuts]

They also molest kids, which is weird

 

[Pringle Can Lothario]

Considering they already accomplish nothing, it seems like they could have saved a few hundred boxes of ziti.

If they still had that $100k, do you know how many kids probably would have gotten molested? We basically saved those kids.

You know the word heroes gets thrown around a lot in our society, but without question, we are the greatest heroes in America history.

Daily reminder that the SFWA is taking Disney to court over royalties for writers of Star Wars books, but decided to divert six figures of their scarce funds so Piggy could sue people who were mean to him online.

That suit is completely for show. Disney has been employing the most Cutthroat lawyers in the world for over half a century. We seen the quality of lawyer the sfwa pays for. They know fully well they're going to get trounced.

Disney is just a bunch of fellow pedophiles like the SWFA.

Quasi101 is just a badassed motherfucker.

They settled, but I can't find anything about it anywhere. It would have been done behind the scenes. I don't believe there was anything filed with the courts. The amount they owed Alan Dean Doster was so negligible it didn't even register to Disney.

It also isn't just the SFWA it is some "task force" [URL]https://www.writersmustbepaid.org/faq[/URL]

task force

You know this is an organization of shitty writers when they actually have to type something like that out and they don't feel embarrassed about it

Good to know that Frank Black's talents are being put to good use.

Sisters in Crime. Women writing shitty crime novels needed their own little organization because the patriarchy. Nice allies, stupid.

 

[JoeCumiawearsDIAPERS]

To be fair, $100k wouldn't do shit against Disney either.

International Association of Media Tie-In Writers, you're fucking next!

The rumors are true, we're a mean group of jerks who attack random literary genres because performative cruelty is the only thing we care about!
