  1. They absolutely did today. With 10 times as many people in attendance. I was there, as my office is in the tower. The Statesman estimated over a thousand today, and no issues. Amazing how when you treat folks with respect and don’t try to drive them into the ground, you don’t need a goon squad.
  2. Here is a live stream. That is if DPS doesn't assault and arrest another cameraman.
  3. It's almost if DPS had never showed up yesterday, the same thing would have happened.
  4. Lots of folks out there now.
  5. Just got back to my office in the Main building from lunch. Probably 40 UTPD mulling in the main hallway on the ground floor. Didn't see more than normal amount of folks out in front of the tower on the Main mall.
  6. Hearing reports that after DPS drove protesters to the Drag, they left, students are back on main mall with no to little UTPD presence and everything is very peaceful. Anyone else seeing this?
  7. I randomly changed my one WFH day from my normal Friday to today due to meetings. My office is in main. Really wondering if I should head to campus tomorrow. We got evac notices at 2 today.
  8. Just got this email University wide: UTPD Notice of Dispersal Order THIS IS A DISPERSAL ORDER FOR OCCUPANTS OF THE SOUTH MALL: I am Assistant Chief Ashley Griffin and I represent the University of Texas at Austin Police Department.

  10. The curving freeway on the red helmet is a perfect representation of Houston. Well done.
  11. International Office went to appointment only. When I got my photo taken in January, I booked my appointment 15 minutes before. I cannot speak to the PO. I assume you are likely correct.
  12. UT international office does everything this office does. (And as @locodos says, so does your post office). I got my pic taken at the international office, but didn’t use them for anything else (I work at UT, and at the time they were temporarily located in Main, where my office is. Just filled out and printed out the forms online).
  13. True. But you can book a refundable plane ticket to do this process, then cancel the ticket. Had a buddy that has done it before.
  14. Just seeing this thread. Last July got a new primary care doc, and apparently previous to her, all my doc and I did in appointments was shoot the shit about F1. He never seemed worried about my numbers other than BP ( am on BP meds). Well new doc lights me up about just about everything. Gives me three months before she starts prescribing half the pharmacy to try and make some changes. I was at 260 lbs (5'11") at that July appointment. Just hit 215 for the first time since Junior year of college. All my numbers in the green, and we have cut my BP meds in half. Trying to get down to right at 200, then we will go from there. This is 100% from walking (7-10 miles a day) a very drastic diet change (huge reduction in calories). Tried running a few times, but growing up in a small town, and being forced to run CC for four years means I'll literally do anything else than run. Have not started lifting again, but I think I'll start that after I get closer to 200. The whole new wardrobe thing was really eye opening. Did a purge, and I only have about 14 shirts, both dress and T's that fit.
  15. I did not expedite anything end of February. Received in their system 2/28. I had the new passport in my hand 3/25. a coworker had to expedite, and just went normal expedited route and had hers back in 2 weeks.
  16. Rookie things.
  17. I have a free GA ticket for tonight if anyone wants it. Shoot me a PM and I’ll transfer it digitally
  18. DJI_0314.MP4 Timelapse from my drone at our viewing site out near Kingsland.
  19. Username and avatar checks out.
  20. Ronel Blanco has a no hitter going again, vs the Rangers right now on ESPN. Through 5
  21. You make a fantastic point. All San Antonio IP’s should be banned.
  22. We are in agreement. The difference is you say Derka, I say BeardIP/Donkey/Chrispy. The larger difference, I don’t ever see the Derka derails, but I’m not a basketball fan and our TV viewing habits are different or I just move past his opinions.The derails by the Donkey/et/all trolls happen across multiple threads and multiple forums around current events. it’s almost as if they are exactly the same. Which was the point of my original post. All this handwringing over Derka, but trolls that have been banned multiple times have to keep being banned by the community. seems to me the problem is not the guy with positive rep, but the guys that continuously get banned via negs and continue to return and continue their old schtick.
  23. So fuck him. Right? Well, he told Rex he couldn’t dip on Southwest flight, so he must be destroyed.
  24. And yet here you are arguing in the mud with the rest of us Neanderthals /joking It’s one thing for a single person to skip over a post. It’s a whole other thing for hundreds or thousands of people to. I have been here since day one. I was on Shaggy in the first week. Don’t have tons of posts, but read tons. This shit derails threads for days. Acting like it’s a nothing burger doesn’t make you or anyone else mightier than the rest of us assholes. Just means you have a slightly larger asshole.
