I'm not a huge fan of Jimmy John, the person, so this is icing on the sandwich cake.

This is some horseshit. The video mistakenly says January, but it's from yesterday. This is my preferred candidate in my district.

Well this was an interesting headline in my feed
Women Who Cook While Menstruating Will Be Reborn As Dogs, Hindu Leader Says
1. I would LOVE a week off from cooking occasionally 2. being a dog (specifically MY delicate little flower dog) doesnt seem so bad.
I'm not linking the article.

I accidentally clicked like on this before I fully read it but I chuckled because my like stands. Oh to have the life of my dog.

I should have turned off the news
CNN is showing the video from the arrest of A SIX YEAR OLD GIRL for having a tantrum. Handcuffed and put into a police car.
I understand she was lashing out and hitting a teacher, but for fucks sake, SHE IS SIX. If you can't handle a six year old child you should get the fuck out of policing.
The SRO has been fired (after bragging she was his youngest ever arrest and she set a record) and the school CLAIMS they didnt want her arrested and only asked for help stopping her from hitting.
I'm sick to my stomach

I can't believe this. Six years can have some massive emotions and hitting, while not ok, is not the same as an adult hitting an adult. I'm glad they fired him.

From an article about the arrest:
"Over the course of Turner’s 23-year tenure at OPD prior to retiring last year, he was disciplined seven times for violations of department policy that ranged from unsafe driving to a child-abuse arrest in which he was accused of injuring his 7-year-old son, record released Tuesday showed. He was also accused of sending threatening text messages to his ex-wife in 2009 and racial profiling, records show."
To the bolded: Ya think?!?!
The article and video had me in tears. Her grandmother was quoted as saying this broke her granddaughter. I just want to hug them both.

He had no business being in LE, let alone in close contact with kids.

i watched this on the news this morning and was really upset by it. I can't fathom the need for a full grown adult male cable tying a 6 year olds hands behind her back and frog marching her to a police car. I'm so upset for that little girl, i saw that he police officer in question was fired but he should have been charged with something

The clerk trainer got mad at me for clicking the poll worker iPad into the base before she said to. and then they got mad because when packing them up I put the stylus in the box alongside the eleventy other things they had us putting in, but they didn't yet day "and now the stylus." 😬
I have pink highlights, sat in the back, and pre-packed my stylus. What must she think of me.
But generally I'm still glad to be doing this. And the whole voting process in GA has changed so this was a good heads up.
And I side-eyed the number of times the white clerks made remarks about voters lying about their precinct, residency, etc. Like they did some massive splitting of precincts recently. Fucking give some grace while people get used to this.

Man I know I'm not a religious person, but it took me way too long to realize this was a reference to the biblical Noah. My first thought was this: I'm not religious at all, in fact, Debbie Dingell was on an interview and had a huge black mark on her forehead about 2 hours ago. I was like WHAT HAPPENED? it JUST now occurred to me they were her ashes. And only because another person was on a few minutes ago and it actually looked like a cross.
