So much for them expecting it to take days for channel movement. Impressive. Twitter appears to share my mixed feelings about it getting unstuck.

How the everloving FUCK can this defense atty stand there and say there was no asphyxiation?
there is literal video tape. Also I'm sorry I dont care how fit/unfit whatever you are, after kneeling on someones neck for over eight minutes there is going to be bruising.

The dispatcher saw parts of the overhead cam and was so concerned she call the duty sgt. She had never seen that before.

edited to say the trial has reopened a lot of feelings from the summer and tied up into 45’s response and It’s a lot
[and yes, for my mental health I have taken myself out of the current news cycle]

Biden just spoke on COVID and begged, and I mean begged, for governors to reimpose mask mandates.

It is real weird for former colleagues of mine to be on national television today re: the trial.

Ok, I know the defense is playing the 'he was a person who did bad things and wasnt healthy' card but I really think the news needs to STOP REPEATING THAT NONSENSE.
I'm looking at you Wolfie @cnn
Because George did not kill or HARM anyone, Derek otoh DID, on top of his 19 excessive force complaints.

lemondrop ❤️ My mother’s first husband was physically abusive and she finally got the courage to divorce him. When I was a kid I watch my mom go to her Catholic priest and ask if she could receive communion (after being sad about not receiving it for decades). She explained her situation and asked for an exemption. The priest told her no because she was divorced and she needed to get an annulment (which would require contacting her abusive ex.) She was heartbroken. I watched my mom lose her religion and I swore off such a ridiculous church that would ask my mom to do such a dangerous and stupid thing.

the 8,000 year old white man who sponsored the GA voting atrocity is on CNN and basically said that Rep Cannon has a long arrest record and so maybe her knocking on the Governor's door wasn't super innocent. But you know, he wasn't there so he knows nothing except maybe run a background check on the black senator because she probably deserved to be perp walked for knocking on a door.

lizblue, I'm so sorry you had to watch that happen, too. It seems like everytime I could give the Catholic Church a second chance, something comes out that makes me go, "NOPE NEVER AGAIN". I don't know why I even consider giving them more chances with all of the hurtful, terrible things they try to keep under wraps - not to mention the ones that they very blatantly do in public in the name of Christ. The Catholic guilt is a real thing.

Sending hugs to you lemondrop. I'm so sorry the church was so awful to your family during a time of unimaginable grief. I must admit I struggled pretty heavily with my faith after my late H died by suicide and I can only imagine how compounded that would have been if the (Lutheran) church we had the funeral and burial through had been difficult. It is rather unconscionable, really.
