Hm directions for these White House sliders call for a microwave, which I ain’t got. So should I bake with a pan of water/ toss em the toaster oven or throw the Pattie’s in a skillet and toast up the buns?

There are a lot of good reasons to do it. First and foremost to demonstrate it actually happened. That may seem silly, but the Paul Pelosi attack footage was also released today and the judge specifically cited misinformation and conspiracy theories as one reason why it was made public. Second, it needs to be conveyed how bad this poo poo is. People are always downplaying how bad things are. Remember the one poo poo head journalist who kept bragging that water boarding wasn't so bad and then when he volunteered for a baby waterboarding immediately changed his tune? That's why the brutality needs to be conveyed, otherwise some people (and you know who) will simply say "oh they got some love taps while being shoved into cuffs, who cares?!" As an individual, you can obviously choose not to, but it remains important for the public at large to see it for those lessons to form in an indelible way.

Each of these options works from what I can tell, steaming will give you softer buns, other options a little more toasted. They're fully cooked so really you're just warming them up in whatever way works for you.

*-as a fan of the worst fast food in the world in general I really miss having a White House somewhere in the city.

They should release it because its in the public interest.

Its kinda funny that was the intention because the Pelosi video just raises a bunch more questions than it answers because it does not match up with the first version of events - at all.

You're thinking way too fancy, you're just warming that up, the whole thing goes onto whatever heating device you're using. We're eating frozen White Castle sliders here, there's no judgment past that.

you open one end of the bag, you put the bag in the microwave, you pull it out and tear open the bag and eat them. if you don't have a microwave, you can't eat frozen white castle cheeseburgers. that's the rule, they're fit only for people who would own microwaves

Do you have a rice cooker with a steamer basket? Or an instant pot with a steamer rack? I would throw some water in the bottom of the pan and steam those babies for a few min with one of those appliances if I didn't have a microwave (wtf).

My place didn't have a working microwave when I moved in and I was a combo of too cheap and occasionally too broke to buy one, so I spent my first 2 years here without one. Once my partner moved in we got one but until then I just reheated stuff in the stove or made things that were fine to eat cold.

Neither of those. Microwave crapped out about 6 months ago and I’m brooooke. Good side of not having one is lost buncha weight cause you gotta be pretty hungry to toast/bake something. Plus smaller portions cause reheating stuff is more work

The one dude in video 3 who got tired and angry, then just whipped out his baton and smote him is fuuuuuuuuuuuucked.

They’re all hosed since they lynched him, but that guy especially just casually whipped it out, stated his intention, then lit him up while he was defenseless.

There’s four different videos, there from the cop cameras and then one from a pole that’s down the street.


I’ll spoiler the description.


The three videos from the cop cameras are the cops showing up after the other two are already there and beating on Tyre. The other three join in. One keeps yelling at him to give him his hands to cuff him but Tyre is so out of it he’s not really complying so they beat on him some more. One of the cops has mace and tells the other cops to get back and absolutely douses Tyre with mace. But then also sprays himself and the other cops, which just pisses him off and he takes out a baton and starts hitting Tyre in the head. This goes on for a while and they get cuffs on him and sit him up against a car but he’s clearly unconscious or near it because he keeps falling over and they just prop him back up. Eventually an EMT starts looking at him but didn’t seem to be doing much.

After that there’s not much else that I could see.

Two of the officers are holding the victim down screaming for his hands while he screams for his mom, a third officer stands over him and empties his pepper spray directly into the victim's face (while still on the ground held by the other two) a few times, before apparently accidentally inhaling or getting it into his own eyes. He takes a breather for about 90 seconds, before casually strolling back up, pulling out his baton, and cracking the victim across the head and torso a few times with his baton. Then a fourth officer has the first two hold the victim up, while he launches a whole buncha haymakers into the victim's face. Like, it's a straight up "hold this guy so we can beat him to death" kind of situation, and absolutely no provocative acts or active resistance or anything, they're annoyed they had to stop him and were treated with anything other than the utmost and immediate deference, and they take it out with fists and clubs until the guy's dead.

Edit, sorry, didn't spoiler it

I have some stories about what people have worn to court. Our court is still in-person optionable and most social workers, attorneys, and clients attend via zoom so it's not as much of a thing but in the before times there would be at least a yearly reminder about approproate court attire. Crocs would generally not be appropriate for professional. Neither are short shorts and a tub top, pants with a hole in the crotch, flip flops, a giant beach hat and long t-shirt.

Some of it dumb though, like clean and nice jeans should be fine but they're not. Open toed shoes are also banned and lale professionals should wear a tie but it's not formally required.

Clients can wear what they want and I've seen folks come to court in stuff ranging from full on 3 piece suits to their actual stripper costume under a long coat since they were on their way to work. A client showed up in a white power band shirt and called me racist against my own people since I helped remove his kids from what's best described as an RV meth den that created more meth.

On a less unpleasant topic, I've taken the return to in-person hearings to officially ditch the coat and tie, I'll still throw on a nice shirt/sweater and slacks, but that's the most they're getting out of me anymore unless I'm explicitly reproached for it, and nobody seems to care so far. I have a whole high-minded rant about it being inherently classist to demand as such while reinforcing the patriarchal system of power repressing our clients, to say nothing of absurd even when just applied to the professionals present as there's such massive pay disparity between various parties, but I basically just think it's dumb and annoying and uncomfortable and don't really want to do it anymore.

The fact that so many people are warning about how terrible it is, but also that everyone was told yesterday what time this was getting released makes me really curious what will actually happen today. Are protests already in the works before the video comes out? Are we going to see "spontaneous" protests tonight? Just feels so different than before because Floyd came out of nowhere. This has been talked about for weeks already.

There's a heavy undercurrent going around of "well you know how THEY are gonna respond" that's pretty amazingly unsubtle

You know, they kept talking about him being “on something” and “high as a motherfucker” as if that warrants a death sentence.
