terminally chill

its like when they try to figure out if you’re poor by asking if you have “reliable transportation,” hoping that ppl will explain that they dont have a car without actually being asked. things like that.

The video shows a female jailer pull Chavez, the tiny female inmate, up from the ground by her hair.

“What’s your name?” Chavez demanded.

It only takes a second for another male officer standing nearby to pull out a stun gun, tasering Chavez, apparently for asking for the female jailer’s name.

As Chavez falls to the ground from being tasered, Sgt. Allen says coldly, “stop resisting.”

“I wasn’t.”

“Yes … you were,” added allen, slightly joyed.

“Stay right there. Don’t move,” Allen told Chavez, hovering over her.

Chavez begins crying, and sobbing out in pain, apparently from being tasered by the male jailer after asking for the female jailer’s name.

“I need you to be quiet. Quiet!” yells Allen. “I need you to stay there until we’re done.

Chavez continues to call out in pain, seemingly hoping for one of the other officers to stand up for her.

But that never happens.

Sgt. Allen then instructs, “Put her in a wrist lock, and twist her wrist until she shuts up and stops crying.”

Allen then walks inside of a room, although the video does not show him since it’s recorded from the perspective of his body cam.

Chavez begins asking the female officer her name, which she never responds to.

Obeying every command, the male jailer and the female jailer hold Chavez down and administer a wrist-lock.

“Ah, fuck!” Chavez screams out.

“Be quiet,” the female jailer attempts to hush the woman.

“You’re going to break my fucking wrist!” Chavez shouts. “That fucking hurts!”

“Be quiet! Be quiet! Be quiet!”

Video then shows the female jailer holding Chavez in a wrist lock saying, “lift your head up.”

“That fucking hurts!”

Chavez Screams out in pain, “you’re going to break my fucking wrist, bitch!”

Sgt. Allen then tells Chavez to stop crying, so she can be taken to medical.

As she’s being taken down the jail’s corridor, Chavez continues crying, protesting the officers who assaulted her.

“Stop. Stop. Stop,” Allen repeats, attempting to quell the grieving mother’s crying.

“You’re going to get maced,” he humors himself. “You’re doing it now.”

“If you don’t stop crying, I’m going to have to mace you.”

“I’m gonna mace her here in a second. Last warning.”

Chavez then pauses in the hallway with her head on the hand railing, and begins crying in grief.

“We need you to be quiet,” the female jailer tells the grieving woman.

“She won’t shut up. You won’t shut up, like a…”

“We’re not trying to hurt you,” the female jailer assured Chavez. “We’re just here to escort you to medical.”

“Yeah, you are, you’re using excessive force.”

“Now you’re getting into stuff where we’re going to hurt you over. You need to be quiet.”

A few seconds go by before the condescending jailer quips again.

“Just like you are right now.”

Chavez then bangs her head on the floor at which point she is maced.

After she begins drooling, reacting to the mace, a mask is placed over her head to prevent her from spitting.

If you treat another human being like this, YOU’RE the fucking criminal.

I don’t know how they could face their friends and neighbors knowing this video is out there.

Any decent human being can not watch that and not have their stomach turn. Still wondering why after 8 months the DA hasn’t charged the people involved with this yet. I’m also surprised this hasn’t been on any national news media yet.

There really needs to be harsher punishments for people that abuse their authority over people in their care.

Beginners (2010) - Directed by Mike Mills

root out your biggest sources of imbalance

to break your worst patterns, take a breather to assess yourself — and how deliberate you are being in allocating your time and energy

identify the imbalances in your life

take five minutes every day to think about what you choose to do. Not just what you ‘have’ to do

keep a detailed, running “to-do” list and a well-maintained calendar

define and rank your priorities

focus on what’s been getting short shrift — and bump those priorities up a notch or three.

if you love travel, for example, but are constantly chained to your desk, don’t ignore your yearnings

narrow down and write out your three to five very top priorities, in order 

keep in mind that it is better to balance a few important responsibilities well than a bunch of more trivial ones poorly

by establishing concrete, realistic goals, you’ll make it easier to commit to lasting change.

take control of your time

get ahead on life chores, like scheduling doctors appointments and picking up dry cleaning, by front-loading tasks to weekdays and weeknights

or try to knock out your most pressing duties early on Saturday, to clear the way for a stress-free Sunday

always stuck late at the office? every morning, set a specific time you plan to close up shop for the night, and stick to it

start winding down and finish last-minute tasks at least 20 minutes before your goal time.

consider overhauling any moments in your day that go wasted.

for example, instead of zoning (or stressing) out during your commute, make that time do double duty by using it to reply to long-neglected work emails.

use downtime on the bus or while you are stuck in traffic to think about what recipe you’ll use to cook a nice dinner for someone you care about

or you might consider asking your manager about your company’s policy on remote work

rest, and rest some more

breaks are necessary. 

getting snippy with coworkers, feeling apathetic or losing sleep are all signs you may need to take a mental health day.

if it’s chores that are weighing on you, don’t be afraid to communicate clearly with your partner or roommate, and lean on him or her for help.

and for those who truly can’t spare time for a day off work, don’t underestimate the power of a short mental break

one great way to center yourself during a crazy work day is to hit the pause button. 

take a 10-minute walk… fresh air is good for the brain and the soul

carve out at least one activity — whether a relaxing massage or a quick but delicious meal — that you’re actually looking forward to every day
