Oops damn you auto-correct…apologies s/b analogies

@jilted

Isn’t it outrageous? I’m not even go near the apologies for this one…makes me too angry.

@jilted
FSC has expanded it donations (income) by including Performers as members even holding fundraisers for measure b litigation directed at talent…shouting your freedom is at stake…27 years after the country adopts laws telling every business with BBP to create and implement industry appropriate work place safety the FSC stakeholders haven’t budged because they aren’t going to spend their money to keep performers safe.

At 29 years they actually create workplace guidelines that would first grant them a five year grace period to implement them and second with language intended to eliminate the very performers it is intended to protect..shouting they want hazmat suits…nope they expect you to shell out just like every other American industry has had to since 1992

The law is pretty simple …measure and exclude the risks (allowing bareback) or you implement appropriate measures to prevent transmission. 31 years later the FSC stakeholders are crying they’re out to get us and take away our first amendment rights…bullshit…the first amendment allows your unique creative expression, that freedom comes with the expectation that you’ll conduct your business safely.

Nothing like this would even be suggested in “real’ world industries. Not even the real hollywood,,,,actors union, directorgs guild, all different groups representing the interests of their members. The FSC represents producers PERIOD. You cant be everything to everybody.

The FSC is not now, and never was intended to represent performers. They are a producer organization, and they represent the interests of producers. Producers fund them, not talent.

Producers have FSC. Agents have LATATA(lol). There is nobody representing talent(good luck rob)

The FSC’s participation in the testing program is not for the benefit of talent, it is to provide a service to the producers. PASS is nothing more than a list of names of people who have taken certain std tests within a certain time frame, nothing more, nothing less.

Producers are employers, talent are employees. The same organization cannot represent both.

I do not want the FSC to represent talent, that would be like having the fox guard the henshouse.

All it would take would be for some of the top talent to boycott one single big company, probably for a month or less, and you would see some real change.

Do not look for agents to act as some type of organization to represent the talent pool as a whole. Agents represent individuals, theirs is not a collective task.

Noboy gives a flying fuck about the talent, and unfortuanately that includes a large portion of the talent themselves. If talent cared about eachother they would be insisting on condoms, and not putting eachother at such risk. They wouldnt be making group decisions and saying it is ok to put a bleeding penis into a girls mouth. Guys wouldnt be doing crossover work if they cared about thier scene partners. Who gives a fuck is the FSC doesnt care about the talent? Has the talent ever showed that they care about eachother?

@BrookeTyler:
“Look, here is a guy running for a seat on the FSC and this is his good idea?”

Exactly.

I would have respect for him from the start if he said “Hi, my name is Mike Kulich and I’m looking to start a new board and actually give a flying fuck about the talent unlike the FSC. What ideas do you have? Email me and we’ll talk”.

Look, here is a guy running for a seat on the FSC and this is his good idea? Is this what he is running on? Always run from anyone who pitches or justifies anything with “I know a guy” or in this case “I know a girl” because a bad deal is on the way. I know a guy who sells copy machine paper, He pays everyone with copy machine paper. How about this. Get Axel Braun on board with it and let him start giving away copies of his big parodies. I am thinking he is just going to say no.

How about a good old fashioned cake walk? That way, everyone wins!!!

@Lacey

This forum is TAME compared to some boards I’ve served on. When the prosthetic legs start flying you know the shit has hit the fan! For real a guy pulled off his leg and pitched it across table of 21 board members, who knows how many sub- members and open discussion people..probably 200 total. He was pissed that his very well thought out idea didn’t pass muster 🙂
