02:37:26 Email came while I was driving home that my iMac is ready for pickup. Guess this means the power supply did the trick. Woo!
02:38:10 Of course, now I remember something else that wasn’t working with it that I should have asked about too. Sigh!
02:39:28 Going to go pick it up now anyway. I’ve been without it too long already! It’s been like, forever! Or three days. WhateverвЂ¦
02:53:18 The other broken thing is the mini display port port is flaky and only works using a VGA adapter, not DVI, which means no protected videos.
02:54:08 Which actually annoys me quite a bit. But I forgot it entirely when I took the thing in. Not turning on was more important.

15:56:09 My battery case wasn't charged last night. iPhone 5 went from 100% to 0% in 2.5 hours without it. That case is indispensable I guess. :-)
17:31:27 Looks like I lied. After 2.5 hours it was at 1%. About her 1.5 hours laterвЂ¦ Still at 1%. :-/

19:02:05 Yup, phone is STILL at 1%. To be fair, I stopped using it other than to check the battery. But still…
19:42:14 Yup. Still at 1%. Letting it go until it shuts down even though I'm right next to a charging cord.

02:17:32 Twitter about to explodeвЂ¦
02:19:19 Hoping only Twitter explodes and no actual violence in Ferguson or elsewhereвЂ¦
02:21:02 Just watching Ferguson via Twitter. Gather guy is blaming social media. Can you say вЂњcompletely tone deaf?вЂќ
02:22:19 Retweeted @nprscottsimon 02:21:56 Rhetoric 101: long preamble tries to give context to grand jury decision. But no one hears a thing until the decision.
02:25:12 Retweeted @studentactivism 02:25:01 Asshole, you've already telegraphed the outcome. Just announce the decision already and then go on CNN in the studio to justify it.
02:25:40 Retweeted @komonews 02:25:23 BREAKING #Ferguson: A grand jury in Missouri has decided there is NOT enough evidence to charge Officer Darren Wilson with a crime.
02:26:29 Retweeted @gabrielroth 02:22:00 gosh, what would be a good way to test all of this contradictory evidence and determine guilt or innocence, can’t think of anything
02:26:55 Retweeted @dandrezner 02:26:42 Most of the evidence will be released after the end of the prosecutor's statement… so likely around August 2018.
02:29:04 Retweeted @attorneycrump 02:28:13 Brown Family Statement on Grand Jury Decision
Read: http://t.co/vjcGEorvpp

02:34:45 Retweeted @jdawsey1 02:33:11 Went from a petty subdued protest in NYC to a large, loud fluid situation in wake of #Ferguson decision. Much anger, no violence, many cops.
02:36:43 Retweeted @jaolson28 02:27:53 What an inflammatory dumpster fire of a press conference for McCulloch. #Ferguson
02:37:56 Retweeted @PGourevitch 02:37:30 The endless confusion of witness testimonies this "prosecutor" is describing sounds like a compelling case for going to trial.
02:40:06 Retweeted @HeerJeet 02:39:57 If every prosecutor acted as this one is doing — as a defense lawyer for the accused — then we'd have no jails.
02:41:31 Retweeted @singernews 02:40:10 McCulloch: it is my sworn duty to seek justice, not simply to obtain an indictment
02:43:03 Retweeted @AlbertsonB2 02:41:18 can we pay him to stop talking? I'll donate.
02:44:09 Retweeted @WesleyLowery 02:43:02 That said McCulloch suggests in presser that blood trail doubles back toward vehicle -which Wilson will say supports "he charged me" defense in reply to WesleyLowery
02:47:16 I’ve said before on podcast that I have no idea what happened in Ferguson. But authorities have been incompetent handling this from start.

02:53:44 Retweeted @digg 02:53:09 Obama to deliver statement regarding Ferguson at 10pm ET
02:56:07 Retweeted @jbouie 02:53:14 Indictments of police are extraordinarily rare. The truth of the matter is police can kill for almost any reason without accountability.
02:57:38 Starting to see tweets about violence in response to Ferguson decision. Remember usual guidelines about вЂњfog of breaking newsвЂќ.
02:57:57 Retweeted @NateSilver538 02:56:11 Extremely rare for a grand jury to fail to return an indictment. Only about 0.01% of the time in federal cases (1/2). http://t.co/XrK4yLwALi

03:29:02 Retweeted @hutchingsahn 01:30:13 The cognitive dissonance inherent in pleading for peace when you look like this is astounding http://t.co/OaPAsG3G6Q
03:34:10 Retweeted @BernardKingIII 03:33:25 Obama: Violence never solves anything. Now could someone hold my Nobel peace prize, I have to authorize a drone strike on a Yemeni wedding.

01:17:48 Good Obama speech. Nailed it I think. Cue the uproar. Impeach?
01:25:40 Retweeted @alex 01:16:21 The person who wrote the Obama speech tonight gets my 10 points.
01:26:22 Retweeted @daveweigel 01:16:35 And so begins the YOLObama phase of this presidency.
01:30:06 This kind of thing would be better if done by Congress. I don’t like unilateral executive action. Cong inaction made this inevitable though.
01:32:51 Retweeted @jpodhoretz 01:18:00 There is no logic in Obama's speech that justifies limiting these reforms to only 5 million illegals.
01:42:49 Retweeted @dandrezner 01:22:50 Jesus, the @CNN montage of Obama repeatedly saying that he couldn't do what he just did on immigration is pretty damning.

15:18:16 Retweeted @morningmoneyben 15:13:51 By my count, Congress now has 6 full working days to avoid a government #shutdown on Dec. 12th. Good times.
