Less cheap labor and more exploitable labor. H1B needs to have a competitive wage, but since they get deported if they don't keep employment with an H1B sponsor, employers have extra leverage to demand longer hours in worse conditions
They get more twisted than a pretzel trying to hide the real reason for H1B visaa

Anyone ever sleep train an infant without the "cry it out" method? Can't bring myself to do that, but very low on sleep

My current favourite bit of Flat Earth lore is that you're "not allowed to explore Antarctica" which arose from clearly incompetent flat earthers being shut down by tour operators who didn't want to be liable for their inevitable, foreseeable deaths.

There's no "controversy" over The Witcher 4, it's just gotten picked up in what is now a cottage industry of YouTube-based outrage content farming by people who have zero actual investment in or understanding of the things they cover multiple times a day, every day

People who actually *like* games don’t appreciate the spotlight being wrenched away from those games. Certainly not by a dumbass who pretends to be a fan but can’t even demonstrate basic knowledge.
Fans wanna, y’know, talk about games. It’s really obvious when someone doesn’t.

Say what you will about reddit, but most gaming subreddits don't tolerate this grifter garbage. General criticism is fine, but once they detect those bad faith arguments, they purge them quickly.
But even on Twitter, Monster Hunter and Tekken fans told Grummz to fuck off too, so that's promising.

Good overview - specifically it goes into why I fell out of Christianity many years ago, because my church at the time bought a hotel. Not to use as a shelter or anything, just diversifying their income streams. Something about camels and needles seems to be appropriate

Look, I think the internet just found it refreshing that the terrorism of the last few days was directed at the ruling class instead of school children for once, begrudge us a little levity during our dystopia gd.

Thank you so much for all the kind words and to everyone who shared this one.
I’m so glad that it’s helped others feel seen. That alone makes it one of the most important pieces of work I’ve done.

This week's video is very important to me. I discuss Mouthwashing, and why it so uniquely horrified me as a disabled chronic pain sufferer. "I hope this hurts" indeed.
