Well, that settles what I'll be doing this week.

1. slugits asked: Mr. Gaiman, would it be crossing the picket line if I saw Barbie in theaters, or should I wait until the strike has been resolved? neil-gaiman: No, it's not crossing a picket line to go and see anything. Nobody from any of the unions has asked for a boycott of anything yet. Continuing to go see your movies, watch your shows, stream your favorites is one of the best ways to support the WGA and SAG-AFTRA right now. This content has been made, and it makes money. It helps immensely to show the studios the value of the work that writers and actors do. If you don't go, it hurts writers and actors. Studios can say, "Well, actually, Barbie only made SX dollars, Oppenheimer only made SY dollars, only so- many thousands of people watched Good Omens 2, obviously there isn't enough money to go around. Sadface emoji.” See the stuff you want to see with reckless abandon.
