Helping a buddy make his estimated tax payment I see this on IRS Direct pay. Seriously IRS?! You chose the submission deadline to run planned outages?! This is a prime example of how inefficient the IRS is. So damn infuriating!

#TedLasso won at the #Emmys for comedy series. In one of the show's scenes, this 26,000-seat stadium looks filled to the brim, but what most people don't know is the crowd is mostly made of fake people who weren't even filmed in a stadium.

How Hollywood makes fake crowds look so real

Using completely real crowds in Hollywood productions can be a huge logistical challenge. That's why movies and TV shows have found many ways to make crowds look bigger than they are.

The #Bears have a RB depth problem. Leonard Fournette was just released. So? @BryanPerezNFL thinks the next step is pretty logical: nbcsports.com/chicago/bears/…

This is the scene at O’Hare airport. The traveler who took the photo said it’s a 6-hour wait for bags then on to customs for 2-4 more of waiting in shoulder-to-shoulder crowds. Police are handing out water and disinfectant wipes. @fly2ohare #ord #coronavirus #COVID19
