A place to discuss positive changes that can make work more equitable, and to vent about current practices. We are NOT against work; we just want the fruits of our labor to be recognized better.

Our Philosophies:

All workers must be paid a living wage for their labor.
Income inequality is the main cause of lower living standards.
Workers must join together and fight back for what is rightfully theirs.
We must not be divided and conquered. Workers gain the most when they focus on unifying issues.

Our Goals

Higher wages for underpaid workers.
Better worker representation, including but not limited to unions.
Better and fewer working hours.
Stimulating a massive wave of worker organizing in the United States and beyond.
Organizing and supporting political causes and campaigns that put workers first.

Yes. What I wish from Marvel television is a buch of different series, different genres, and tones, who still exist in the same world and occasionally interact with each other. Thats what Marvel comics do.

We were getting that with the Netflix and even ABC shows. Sadly, they've gone for quantity over quality with the Disney+ shows and nothing TV-MA exists in the MCU anymore. The new book that shows the official timeline completely leaves out all shows that weren't made for Disney+.

With Marvel, they don't even have quantity anymore and episodes are too short. I remember that 2021 was packed with Disney+ show.

Those shows are legitimately just shitty movies broken down to bite size 20 minute chunks. I thought Quibi died already?!

This is the worst part. It's so watered down now. So many Marvel and SW shows I'm just never going to watch, especially since my experience with the last few has been so bad.

Hit Monkey still exists, although it is not cinematic technically speaking.
