Baffling that the NBA season is in jeopardy over the Kenosha shooting. As more of the facts come out on that case it’s becoming clearer and clearer that the cops’ actions were justified. We’ve all lost our minds.

I don’t think the shooting was justified. I’ve watched the video over and over. It’s all about how police officers approach and engage. I would like to understand why their guns were drawn in the first place. All officers had their guns drawn and two hands on their weapons. To me this was their mistake. They had time to apprehend him before he reached his car door if they weren’t holding the guns on him. By drawing their weapon the only response they had was to fire. It’s troubling that police officers are shooting people to “stop them” as opposed to an actual threat. Had they not drawn their weapons they could have restrained him and arrested him (if there was cause). It’s the judgement to pull your weapon that is the issue. Why is it pulled so early on black people. Why do officers use other restraint tactics on white people. No one is asking for preferential treatment. Just the same treatment. It’s glaringly different and very troubling. In this case Jacob could have been easily apprehended without a shot being fired. If three officers can’t apprehend one man without shots being fired they shouldn’t be police.

I have been in an awkward reporting structure for 2.5 years. On record I’ve reported to the VP of Marketing, who was crazy toxic, and technologically inept.

She’s gone and the new VP starts tomorrow. Any guidance on how to ensure this ends with the incumbent VP?

Once, when I was little, I was playing Monopoly with my cousin. I was the banker, and I liberally “quantitatively eased” myself whenever he wasn’t looking.

I got unlucky and lost the game but I threw an absolute FIT, accusing my cousin of cheating because I knew how severely I’d cheated myself. How could he have won if HE didn’t cheat?!

Donald Trump’s righteous, desperate conviction is that of a losing cheater. I only hope he gets the time out he so richly deserves.

Interesting. Let’s see if the uptick In cases continues to drive an uptick in hospitalizations and then in fatalities. Depends on how many of the cases are incidental or in very young people not prone to severe cases. But either way, look at the hospital capacity utilization figures! This is the untold story. Were we bending the curve to avoid unnecessary deaths due to overcrowded hospitals, or were we bending the curve to buy time for treatments and vaccine, or just to slow fatalities?

I'm starting to grow concerned that so many auditors don't seem to know the difference between the UAE and Palestine, which are entirely different countries. One of which has a large history of war with Israel. One does not. One just signed a peace agreement with Israel, but it wasn't the one stuck in a decades long war. One constantly is under threat of having land annexed by Israel, but it isn't the one in the peace agreement, and Netanyahu has already said this agreement doesn't alter plans
