I get that there is a lot of enthusiasm out there for Warhammer 40K (at least in my feeds) when it comes to games and animation, but Piranah Games is doing phenomenal work with Battletech and their Mechwarrior 5 tranches. Never been a better time to jump in on the IP’s lore. Go watch some Sven van der Plank videos and hop on in!
Sustainability discourse asks how to keep the crop alive. It rarely asks how to keep the grower whole. When certification schemes negotiate a differential of a few cents, what is being priced is a human life, and the negotiation assumes the arrangement itself is acceptable and only the number is in dispute.
What is the fair trade for my children to be cotton pickers? There is no number. I am not asking what the wage should be. I am asking why that is the position on offer at all. Every framework that begins with a price has already conceded the position, and they have been conceding it for three hundred years.
To the extent that I’m starting to see a bit a fuss on my feeds about what may or may not be happening with the Plague in Russia its worth reading folks who will remind you to take a deep breath before jumping to conclusions.
Propublica is documenting in detail the detention of U.S. citizens by (typically masked) Federal law enforcement officers under the guise of immigration policy administration.

š· I think this fortune comes across as more foreboding than intended.
I like reading @connectedplaces.online because even if many of the projects highlighted in their most recent roundup end of failing they project a hopeful vision for a less toxic social web.
Reading today about the botched execution of Christa Pike. This is not the first time these types of complications have been document.
IMHO the “medicalization” of the U.S. justice system’s capital punishment apparatus is a total farce. Execution is inherently violent and malevolent and no amount of bureaucratic performance meant to make it look like a clinical procedure can hide that. The grotesqueness of the guillotine is humane by comparison because of its immediate lethality.
šš· Autumn vibes are on point for October 1st.
