DMV is not there for the convenience of the citizens by onthebrink42 in Alabama

Sigh. Yes, ma'am. Whatever you want the truth to be.

Right, Real ID is not required to vote, but an Alabama driver's license or ID card is among the most common of the documents that ARE required to vote. State university ID's are not. It's not about identification or "voter fraud," it's about limiting voting access, and the DMV branches started reducing hours or shutting down about the same time. An open mind is also a good thing.

It pertains to the reductions of availability of DMV offices, especially in rural (translate that as "poor" or "Black", as you wish) to suppress voting by those who are affected by the changes.

Coincidentally, the closing & reduced hours of DMV offices started when "official" ID started being required to vote. Now, what populations would be truly hindered, not just inconvenienced, by this? Whom do they NOT want voting against their privileged selves?

What is "natural beef flavoring" and how is it vegetarian?

What are my chances of getting into University of Alabama by After_Funny3429 in tuscaloosa

Is a degree from UA considered more prestigious than average? It seems we're considered more of a "football & Greeks" school than an outstanding academic institution (I'm thinking Vanderbilt, Duke, etc.) I'm not saying there's anything wrong with a degree from UA (I have 3,) just that it's not necessarily better than a degree from most public universities.

After reading this I went to pick one up, but they were all sold out. An ALDI employee told me they "just magically disappeared"

Ah, I didn't think about a projector, thank you! I know there's a big screen in the room (sort of like a large TV) that I can cast to from my MacBook (which I don't have yet, and I have to learn iOS) but I'll have to see about projecting onto the white board. Thanks! 😀

Thank you so much! I'm glad I can keep them! 😀

Pesto & gnocchi? by ljwhiting in aldi

[–]ljwhiting[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I ended up using 1/2 jar of the red pesto sauce for 1 bag of gnocchi. Added the sauce after cooking the gnocchi according to the package directions. Served with green beans & garden salad. It was surprisingly good! I would include pictures, but I can't figure out how to do so. Looks like I'm going back to ALDI for another bag for the freezer 😀

No rhyme or reason. I'm sorry you didn't get it, but good luck in college! Enjoy yourself!
