In an early shot of the video, the harness on the dog states that it is a PTSD dog.

FiveThirtyEight quantified your description of Eli Manning!

Oh lord, I did NOT mean to do that. (As noted, incoherent.) Apologies.

*snort* Just having A Day. It’ll pass. But it’s the kind of day that leaves me more cranky and negative than usual, and a bit incoherent.

Is it wrong that I’m hoping this is the right guy? Because call me crazy, I feel like there could be more than one man like this in Baton Rouge. Just a feeling. I’d hate for someone else to get hurt or die because there’s more than one racist asshole in Baton Rouge today.

I had to read that headline 3 times before it sunk in.

The Tab for Temple (if I’m referencing that right - it’s a college news aggregator, I think?) has an interview with the roommates.

One of the reasons my husband left the job he was at for about 15 years was they had once had an excellent educational benefit. They fully paid for his Master’s, and before he resigned, they had probably paid for 1/3 of his PhD.

Why would the police show to a community activist/friend of the family the hotel video?

I read the Trib’s article, so I understand Kenneka’s mother has the video but was waiting to view it with an attorney. Which, I get - I’m not a mother, but if I was one, I don’t think I could watch video of my child’s last minutes…

As this is an all-women’s college, that would be more likely.

I’m gonna take the blame for this one. I dropped her a tip earlier this evening. Will a puppy help lower the blood pressure?

It’s a women’s college.

Well, I’d tweet but I’m not on Twitter in any major fashion and the little I’m on is super locked-down. (My social media is fairly locked down in general due to not wanting my family to micromanage every aspect of my life, which they would still like to do even though I’m approaching 50. *eyeroll*)

I haven’t heard, but apparently, the cops didn’t buy it to begin with. So if they did detain anyone, I haven’t heard, but I wouldn’t be surprised.

News tip for you, Monique. One of the “jesus fucking christ” variety. Same story, two sources.

You can get two careful bites out of the chocolates. If you can contain yourself from just tasting all the flavors, you will find one holds you when you have a sweet craving. This woman is so talented, it’s nuts.
