Maybe refrain from tweeting on set while a strike is happening, Kim Kardashian.

On Friday, the reality show superstar decided to check in with her 74.9 million followers by writing “I’m on the set of AHS and we have some time between shows.

“Kim, this is a beautiful opportunity to show some solidarity and tell us if anyone is making script mods on site,...
