one thing I miss from the pre-genAI days is that there was no questioning that human nonsense was simply human nonsense. a dog piloting a plane? some silly human toiled over that in photoshop. now, when something is nonsensical, we question if it’s ai and don’t get to enjoy it the same way.

I had written about the case, which revealed that thousands of farmworkers were illegally charged fees by labor contractors to work in the U.S. Some were forced to work for little to no pay in what prosecutors described as a form of modern-day slavery. projects.propublica.org/h2a-visa-far...
A Farmworkers Visa Promised Her a Better Life. It Was a Trap.
Sofi left behind her child in Mexico for the promise of providing him a better life. She ended up a victim of an operation that is alleged to have exploited the H-2A visa program — and the workers it ...

Not Paris, not Copenhagen, not Utrecht.. SOMERVILLE MA. They are doing it. And just 40 miles away Worcester MA was just named the 4th most dangerous city IN THE COUNTRY. We are not so special. It *can* be done. Our council are deliberately choosing not to do it.

Need some recs! Best fiction featuring giant snakes as an antagonist - got anything good? Especially looking for videogame bosses
Also literally do not be a Waffen-SS man for hire working for the MAGA mercenary organization. The moment it came out that he worked for Blackwater, *especially* in the first Trump term that was all people needed to know. There are no good SS men.
Jeff, formerly of MN and MA, still God of Cookies@diasporaminnesotan.bsky.social · 4w agoMy anti-fascism, indeed most of ours, is No Nazi Shit Ever. Got a Nazi tattoo? No. Not gonna let you in the door. First, because you have Nazi shit on your body. Nazi shit is bad, period. Also, Nazi shit is never the only shit. No more context matters. None. Bright line. No. Nazi. Shit. Ever.

Anyone who comes back from killing brown people for the US imperialism project and goes, "man, that was great, but I wish I could kill more brown people with even less accountability" is automatically a bad person.
“he worked for Blackwater” was the most information anyone ever needed to know what that dude was about
i don’t mean to be a scold about this, but it should be a learning moment for left-of-center Americans: the guys who choose to go overseas and shoot people with guns are not to be trusted, ever
perhaps people could also vet their blackwater alum candidates in advance, or even not unify behind blackwater alum. who's to say.
The tattoo is bad, yes. But being ex-blackwater is worse. If we don't take that to heart we'll get another mercenary with no tattoo and people will be happy to vote for them
I remember when we lived in Ecuador and we were recommended a meat farm run by US Americans and their logo was "Ecuadorian meats done right"
