This is everything the Stranger Things writers have posted publicly about the WGA strike:

TIMELINE

May 3rd:

Stranger Things writer Caitlin Schneiderhan tweets picture from personal Twitter account of sign from the strike that reads 'Pay us or Steve Harrington is toast'

May 6th:

Official Stranger Writers Twitter account makes post on behalf of the Duffers Brothers. They have since pinned this tweet to their profile. "Duffers here. Writing does not stop when filming begins. While we're excited to start production with our amazing cast and crew, it is not possible during this strike. We hope a fair deal is reached soon so we can all get back to work. Until then -- over and out. #wgastrong

Bonus:

May 12th:

Stranger Things writer Kate Trefry posts picture from personal Tumblr account of sign that reads, 'Byler won’t write itself'

As far as I know, the two writers that posted on their personal socials are the only writers from ST that even have personal accounts that are public, whereas the rest of the writers do not.

What does make me take a pause though, is that, while yes they did post these pictures from their personal accounts, which is about as official as it gets, they also cryptically did not include themselves in said pictures...

This just got me thinking about how Stranger Things is quite literally Netflix and vise versa. They are practically one in the same, where one without the other just doesn't make sense.

While this conflict of interest might run deep for many writers out there fearing to speak out against their employer, for us, the consumers, the fans, we as a collective have so much more power than we realize.

In contrast to the writers, streamers can't just fire their consumer base sometime down the line, out of spite for speaking out. Without consumers, neither Stranger Things nor Netflix would be what it is today.

We have the affordance of being able to speak up the loudest of anyone. And so why wouldn't we take advantage of that?

There are so many people out there protesting: writers, actors, others in the industry and even outside of it who are also taking a stand, many who need support so that they can continue to fight in the upcoming days, weeks, months, without being deterred by corporations that are making them feel greedy for demanding a contract that at most, asks that they be paid fairly.

And so I want to encourage anyone that is reading this, but fellow fans of Stranger Things especially, who have so much power in this strike when it comes to getting Netflix's attention, to consider taking the time to do whatever you can individually + with the masses as a community in order to best support the strike.

Follow the Strike! If you're active on various social media already, please be sure to follow the official accounts advocating for the strike via Instagram (@writersguildwest/@wgaeast), via Twitter (@WGAWest/@WGAEast). Engage with posts from folks that are out there daily, many with whom you can find by following tags like #WGAStrong, #WGAStrike and #WritersStrike. Although most fans are not able to join in picketing themselves, we can at least recognize all of those out there's individual efforts and do our best to show that we're paying attention and listening!

Spread the word! Show support any way you can by sharing posts and articles about the strike, or even fun memes to inform others in a more engaging way. This is the official site for the WGA strike if you want to learn more about what’s going on before diving in! And make sure to stay up-to-date here as things continue to unfold!

Donate! The Entertainment Community Fund is endorsed by the WGA for anyone that wants to support those affected by the strike financially. And this thread on Twitter is an incredible resourse, as it provides an ‘easy, one-click, stress-free, accessible-to-all-budgets’ ways you can support folks on the front lines.

Also! Consider donating through this link for the Entertainment Community Fund, where the money donated still goes directly to that fund, this is just an organizing page for Stranger Things fans specifically! By allowing fans to see how much of an impact we make as a collective, in real time, this could encourage even more ST fans to want to contribute. In a best case scenario, if this GoFundMe were to reach impressive proportions of donations from fans, that could lead to news outlets reporting on it, which could allow an opportunity for even more eyes on the strike, while also even more importantly being able to provide financial support to those that need it.

Trend! On social media, use #StrangerFansforWGA to trend or even just to reach other fans also looking to come together to support the strike!

While I know this post probably wont reach anywhere outside of Tumblr, I want to make a point to encourage those of you that are on other platforms to inform fans in those spaces about the strike and what they can do to help!

We might not all agree on everything, but I think we can agree on at least one thing... @Netflix & all major streamers and networks out there, who are still refusing to make a fair deal: PAY YOUR WRITERS!

In the mean time, if you're interested in working on different ideas for initiates we can carry out as a fandom, please reach out to me! I might only one person and I might not have all the answers and solutions, but I do know that with more of us working together, our odds of making an impact are much greater!

Over and out!

Doctor who needs to remember its literally the 'hide behind the sofa because the bad guys are scary' tv show and finally give us a true halloween special. Full blown monsters, full blown scares, full blown mayhem. And it needs to be lead by the master with his own special title sequence.

HAPPY PRIDE EVERYONE

I FINALLY GOT A JOB. 🍾

After nearly 3 excruciating months of job hunting since I was let go from my last place, I was offered two jobs last week and I accepted one that honestly feels perfect for me today. 🥹

WE BACK ON THE CAREER HORSE, BABYYYYY!

Let this man be happy.

I thought I’d draw another Stardew valley character, but I accidentally drew Shane again.

🌱: no, i simply want to see your face and your hat is in the way.

⚖️(embarrassed) : ... spoiled, too, it seems.

Okay but seriously flushable wipes are not flushable and they destroy water treatment equipment which wastes an incredible amount of municipal funds. Good Morning!!!

i wrote this as a joke because I wanted to strangle a guy watching tiktoks without headphones on the bus, but im genuinely disturbed that we've gotten to a point where convenience comes first. and it depresses me even more that its used to justify and monetize greed

[pastafossa]

so excited for you!!!! is it okay if i ask what the dd tattoo is gonna be?? <3

THANK YOU SO MUCH! I'm just as excited, I've wanted this tattoo since 2017 basically, so finally being able to get it, and from an awesome artist I really like, is HUGE! Already booked my date - Nov 14th, so in time for Born Again too!

And I don't mind saying! It's going to be the red Daredevil mask, surrounded by flowers and his quote, "You don't get to destroy who I am". That line specifically holds a lot of meaning to me and what I've gone through. 🥰 It'll take up most of the inside of my forearm, so I'll be able to see it regularly even with how cold it gets here. Est about 5 hours of work, so I'll have time to update people on the journey. 😂

parasite said it best. I really would be such a nice happy positive person if I was rich. it would be so easy for me. my anger issues & constant envy of others are both bc of the limitations of my class. well! time to clock in for another fun night of talking people down from suicide while actively having my own scheduled suicidal ideation

[hasarjunadoneanythingwrong]

How much would I have to pay you to draw Arjuna and Junao like Eating Him Wednesday?

[kxowledge]

Happy 24th birthday to Sanad! ❤️ (June 4) Let's show him some birthday love by bumping up the donations! There's no greater gift than some solid love and support from humanity.

Go to bit.ly/hindsbabyshower to send Sanad a birthday gift!

Sanad and Malak are still sheltering in the husk of their bombed out home. They have no kitchen, no bathroom, and can only use one bedroom. They have a mattress that they share with Hind, as they are unable to get her a bed of her own.

In spite of the difficulties, these young parents are doing an amazing job. They have already seen Hind through an illness caused by contaminated water. This couple deserves to raise Hind in a happy, healthy, and safe environment. Please, donate what you can. Please share

[Image Description:Text reads: Happy 24th Birthday Sanad (Baby Hind’s Dad). Send him a gift at bit.ly/hindsbabyshower

There is a QR code on the right side that goes to the link. There is a photo of Sanad wearing a green shirt and sitting in a chair in some rubble holding up a peace sign. There are graphic flowers and a grid pattern behind the photo. ]
