My @Pebble has been pretty flakey lately, after over a year of being pretty solid. Maybe the recent firmware update has issues…’

You know the fine line between being informed by current events and being consumed by them?

Yes?

So @stltoday says there were 31 arrests last night in #Ferguson — in a just world, most of those arrested would have been police.

I’m incensed and horrified by the actions, behavior, attitudes, and stance of the police in #Ferguson. The police should BE the people!
