or just turn on Spotify or something like that.

like i said, that kind of alibi is by no means exculpatory. If you were a person of interest before giving that alibi, you're still going to be a person of interest after.

and like spracs said re: traffic cams...I don't remember the exact number but the average person who leaves their home to go to work or otherwise go about their day shows up on surveillance cameras ~40 times a day. Like i said, i don't remember the exact number, the point being, its virtually impossible to fully cover your tracks.

because a lot of upstanding citizens are living paycheck to paycheck at hourly jobs, many of them being shiftwork, and while i can't say this is a matter of fact from top to bottom, but its safe to say that most shiftwork type jobs (waiters, factory jobs, retail, etc) you can't just stroll in a couple hours late. You're either there for your shift or you're not. And if you're not then that shift had better have been covered by someone else or you are definitely fired. So that means no income for you that day. or they would have to take a different shift that would make their miserable lives trying to scratch out a paltry existence that much more miserable.

is this really that hard to understand, dax? please tell me you don't think the world is all salaried positions with flexible bosses who will let you take time out of your workday to take care of things like that.

Governmental entities of all types have in person demands, BAC. For example, our own IRS is forcing people (mainly of color) to show up in person to prove they are themselves right now . . . in order to get the money they are owed by our Federal government.

In Texas, how often is a person required to show in person for their DL renewal?  Don't hit me with the usual 8 sentences of gibberish, keep it at 8 words or less.

Duke forward

https://247sports.com/Player/Mark-Mitchell-46077127/

Mark Mitchell, a former five-star McDonald's All-American and two-year starter for the Duke basketball program, entered the transfer portal earlier this week. Now, the 247Sports Crystal Ball projects the 6-foot-9, 230-pound forward to take his talents to Kansas State, albeit with only one entered prediction thus far.

Because they moved it from Arrowhead?

It's complicated.

I forgot to mention during the 2nd half the PA guy announced the attendance and that it was the largest mls regular season game attendance in the state of Missouri, and also the 4th largest mls regular season game attendance ever. Then thanked the crowd for taking part in making history. It was one of the most amazing cringe things I've ever heard in my life

It was the largest attendance for any soccer match in Missouri history. This tweet was much more cringe for me.

Some people may not understand censorship.

Everyone understands when #blueanon Karens can't handle a little criticism and call for self reflection.

The rage out(s) are amazing.

I've had three different people send me the pic of her and Talia Bon Oelhoffen in Mexico. I'm glad women's basketball has a lot of new fans, but holy hell there's a crap load of horny dudes absorbing this content. Gabby also needed help from someone with better monetizing her stuff.

What does being busy have to do with voter suppression?

Given that the Federal government is engaged in many facets of the documentation of citizenship (and related) process in these United States . . . then using your logic, the Federal Government (full of #blueanon leaning wonks) is engaged in voter suppression. Because their service levels are absolute crap, friend.
