Without legal protections, abuse of migrant domestic workers remains normalised in Malaysia and it's only by chance that a few like this woman are safely rescued. It's worth noting also that escaping by herself could have landed her in immigration detention www.rri.co.id/en/internati...

strongly feel that many of the conversations around bdsm are an extension of what @fangirljeanne.bsky.social said on #pagesandprejudice -- if they do sex "the right way," they can't be harmed by the people they trust. i regret to inform you, that is not the case.

I know this is radical talk but I think we can stop paying an occupying force to gas our friends and neighbors in their homes.

just that period reminder that content posted to Bluesky is public to anybody. if you don't want to see it used in a court of law, don't post it here. and DMs here are not E2EE, they can be subpoened. a great use for bsky DMs is to share secure comms and move the conversation there.

This year's Summer Games Fest presentation was really concerned with how few people made a lot of those games, huh? It feels kinda fucked up. Not just because they're often misrepresntating the real size of these teams, but because I think it's playing directly into a new(ish) flavour of dev hate.

Remember how, in 1984, the Party runs a massive bureaucratic operation to constantly falsify and invent and rewite history in order to make the Party seem infallible? We've done that. But for no reason at all. And given the task to a stupid machine that turns rainforests into carbon in the process.

Your reminder that Humboldt Fog cheese, Humboldt County, CA, the Humboldt penguin (Spheniscus humboldti),and the Humboldt Current that allows wine grapes to grow in Chile are all named for an 18th C gay scientist whose love letters were all burned and who left his entire estate to his “valet.” 🏳️‍🌈

Sorry to use this post for a tangential rant, but to present-day me, good work ethic is about doing your job reasonably well in fulfillment of your job description, the sliding scale of how good someone’s work ethic is as measured by their volume of output, without putting a cap on it, is toxic imo

For anyone showing up to the protests around LA this weekend, please bring supplies. Paper towels, milk, water, snacks, and any extra masks. Wear protective gear like helmets, goggles, full face protection, and heat resistant gloves. The tear gas canisters are hot and will burn

Yes! I have seen this a lot too. Please hate appropriately. We’ve been using AI for ages in the games industry, along with ML and procedural content, to great effect. What you are hating is LLMs. It’s predictive text. It has so many issues that are clear if you’ve ever used it. Stay on target!

The reason BotW is a masterpiece and the reason is is one of the FEW open world games that is actually good is that it is so hand-crafted! It's a generous, excessive huge pile of good times. Every single NPC has really cute, specific little bits of text that pop. C'mon people

"Im using Ai roleplay in my spare time" not only will we be stoning you, you are a coward. Roleplay is suppose to be done with your friends or a stranger you barely know but will come to respect like a fellow soldier on the battlefield

i don't think there's a more self defeating anti-piracy system than streaming sites that don't let you take screenshots. i am trying to talk about your product on social media! for free! and you're making that logistically difficult just in case i'm dedicated enough to do it 30 times a second!

Truly despise layoff statements that emphasise that the games will be ok. Who gives a fuck, it’s people’s lives. But don’t worry your game will be fine, that’s the main thing. Never mind the human cost.

Let’s talk for a moment about some of the more subtle ways that the press acts as a mouthpiece for law enforcement. Actor Jonathan Joss was shot to death on Sunday. I don’t know what happened; I wasn’t there. But his husband said a homophobic neighbor shot him as part of an explicit hate crime. /1

Local socialist party was going to organise a closed-door queer event for Pride. Had to be cancelled because of death threats and police intimidation. A friend of mine is part of the organising committee. They told me that cops were calling in pretending to be gay and asking probing questions.

1. Florida banned cities from lighting up bridges rainbow colors for Pride. So the people of Jacksonville did it themselves using flashlights and gels. They opened the drawbridge to block them. So they marched to a different bridge. The latest from S. Baum. Subscribe to support our journalism.

Can confirm. I had an ongoing turf war with some Info wars asshole who kept plastering shit around here. Everytime I saw one I'd take it down, they tried getting creative & putting it 9+ feet up but I'd find a way Thanks to a handy knife & some patience removed every single one. Give em no quarter

For noen kan et lite regnbueflagg bety at vi føler oss tryggere. Man ser flagget og tenker; « her kan jeg passe inn» En enkel måte å vite at jeg også blir satt pris på. Veldig fin video Oslo Pride🌈
