If Major League Soccer doesn’t care enough to watch their own games in order to write about them, why should we watch their games?

As someone whose time freelancing for MLSsoccer was a vital step in my career progression, and someone who generally gleans insight from the observations of others:

This sucks so hard.

MLS is using generative AI to write match recaps. Writers used to get paid freelance rates to do that. Hssssss.

"Is Portland on fire? Depends on if the person you ask is lying" is a hell of a journalistic low, even for the Times.

David Corn @davidcorn.bsky.social · 1d

A classic case of irresponsible both-sidesism from the NYT. The story is that Trump and MAGA propagandists are lying about Portland to incite a conflict, not that there are different views of the matter.

NEW: breach of Discord age verification data.

Including some users passports & DLs

Age verification is a badly implemented data grab wrapped in a moral panic.

Mark my words, as age verification mandates expand, we'll end up more surveilled and less secure. 1/

The Iraq war laid the foundation for all of this: The militarization of law enforcement, the liberal media adopting the conservative framework of who deserves human rights, capitalism’s global buildout of surveillance, detention, and mercenary forces, and equating govt criticism to terrorism

Happening now: at Kedzie and 40th, where Border Patrol agents just opened fire on rapid response this afternoon. A woman CFD says they found after the incident is reported in fair condition.

A growing number of outraged neighbors have gathered across from ICE/CBP agents who have closed Kedzie.
