One thing I loved about threads was how open and vulnerable everyone is about their feelings. How can I find the part of blue sky that does that? I want to send positive responses to anyone that is maybe having a bad day or something. You know?

REPORTER: The Capital Planning Commission is concerned the 89,000 square foot ballroom is going to dwarf the rest of the rest of the WH. Do you worry about that?
TRUMP: No no. People love the ballroom. We need it. If we would've had the ballroom today, we could've had all the oil companies there.

Whether or not it should be a Herculean struggle to convict a law enforcement officer of even a negligent manslaughter, never mind a murder, it is nonetheless a Herculean struggle. And alas it cannot, in the end, take place in a Minnesota courtroom.

Here’s a comment for the people who are upset that MN hasn’t charged Jonathan Ross already:
If you just Leeeroy Jenkins this shit you will lose and you will empower fascism and murder.
It is indescribably hard to prosecute cops for murder. It is even hard when the murder is ON VIDEO.
