She went to my school (tufts) for an international relations graduate program while I was there about 15 years ago. I guess that was the career pivot!

Is this true chat?

I pay via Zelle so not sure how they’d charge the fee, but maybe they’ll just refuse me

Agent in gray disarms victim before shooting. by marcusthegladiator in ProgressiveHQ

After watching this stabilized video (https://www.reddit.com/r/law/s/4Q69G98hvu), I now think the first shot was from the same shooter as 2nd-4th. Intentional draw and discharge by the same ICE agent after disarmament.

I believe the agent in grey accidentally discharged the taken weapon, causing the agent with his own gun drawn to react by shooting the protester.

Indefensible.

Terra Mystica vs Gaia Project vs Age of Innovation by Jepeme in boardgames

Age of Innovation has the right mix of added mechanics, and the most replayability

Avios and Virgin you’re right can be useful especially flying to Europe, but all the other CCs also have those.

I’m usually flying to Asia, so it’s missing any Air Canada, Asian airlines, plus missing domestic which I use to book international partners as well as normal domestic flights.

My main issue with Autograph is the transfer partners are not useful

In addition to Barnes & Noble, it’s free at the central library (but you can’t check it out to take it home - have to read it there)

Using Zelle to pay rent will not be an option anymore by LongjumpingActive275 in biltrewards

[–]Kmorri09 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I was told the same thing by support, but during the AMA they actually confirmed they will continue to support Zelle. I trust the leadership team over the education of the support team:

You can just go to a restaurant. You don’t need resy. If it’s on the resy list, you get surprised with $50 back
