"One Pace is a fan project that recuts the One Piece anime in an endeavor to bring it more in line with the pacing of the original manga by Eiichiro Oda. The team accomplishes this by removing filler scenes not present in the source material. This process requires meticulous editing and quality control to ensure seamless music and transitions."

Nothing around us is open 24 hours anymore. A few had stopped even prior to the pandemic, I'm assuming because staffing costs more than offset any profits they made.

A lot of other places are still running shorter hours than they were pre-pandemic as well. I think a lot of places realized they didn't take a substantial loss in sales with the shorter hours and they spent less on staffing.

FTFY. The fact that other products exist specifically for this purpose means not all cat and dog owners are relying on grocery bags.

One of the chains near us did this a year or two ago. No plastic bags at all and you have to pay 5 cents for a paper bag. We've been using reusable bags for a while now, so no real issue for us, but I haven't really heard anyone complaining while I've been there either.

He isn't getting 12 years in prison, that is the maximum he faces for the charges and Trump is facing way more than that in any of his four indictments. The guy was also out on $10k bail the day after he was arrested.

Not saying there still isn't a difference in treatment, they didn't give him days of notice so he could plan out his bail in advance, but it is a bit different when you aren't indicted by a grand jury first.

The Russians know no one believes those stories - that's the entire point.

They *want* people to know that crossing Putin means you will die quickly and violently. They *want* you to know they were involved. The fact they bother with lying about it is intended to be a bit of a slap in the face - it's their way of saying, "Yeah, this is a transparent lie, but we don't respect you enough to come up with something more believable, so deal with it."
Like killing Litvinenko with Polonium.

It is actual part of the state constitution, so it would require an amendment. Not sure specifically what the process is in Georgia, but I'm going to guess it is not easy since most states follow a similar process to the US Constitution.

Nope, governor does not have pardon powers in Georgia and you are only eligible for a pardon 5 years after completing your sentence.

What are the requirements for a pardon in Georgia?
You must have completed all sentence(s) at least five (5) years prior to applying. You must have lived a law-abiding life during the five (5) years prior to applying. You cannot have any pending charges. All fines must be paid in full.

That is the most confusing part of this, I don't understand why he backed out. Once he made a move he had to know Putin wasn't going to let him live, so either don't start it to begin with or stick with it to the end.
