Removing myself from the debate over whether or not the water breaks are the end of civilization as we know it, the ball must be completely outside the boundary lines before it is considered out. You are seeing a ball that looks out because the majority of the ball is out. That ball is in.

First of all it's called football.

Americans adding water break every 20' is nothing but placeholder for showing more TV ads to generate revenue, classic capitalism ruining the sport experience.
No player is happy with this interruption, especially when the team is playing with momentum.

Teams played in Qatar, in 40 degrees Celsius heat, WITHOUT water break.
Qatar built entire city, allowed free shuttles to / from stadium to fan hotels.

In NYC, $12 ticket to Rutherford is now $175, parking fee anywhere from $150 - $300 depending on how far do you have to walk.

Worse football world cup experience ever, not to mention some countries facing racism as they were subjected to strip search before they could leave tarmac.

And then Americans say, why the world hates them??

It’s a running clock with expected “actual play time” of 45’ per half. Americans adding the mandatory water break is a farce of epic proportions, breaking halves into quarters with the 2nd quarter per half longer bc of added time. Here, that added time is 3’ for the water break + any injury time accumulated during each half, assessed by the center ref based on amt of time stopped before play continues. The more injuries per half, the greater the added time tacked on at the 45’ or 90’

Pro se plaintiff, an attorney, filed a complaint alleging mold defects after closing on a property. Client, layperson, may have agreed orally to a settlement amount without proof of damages prior to filing appearance and obtaining an attorney. Client filed appearance pro se, then plaintiff sent over a draft settlement agreement few weeks later which client didn’t sign. Client then got an attorney, filed answer, etc. Can this oral agreement be voided for coercion, indefinite mat’l term, etc?

First in my family to go to college, parent is abusive so I have no safety net & had no help. Worked full time all through college & still graduated with 30k in debt. I’ve been paying really aggressively on my private loans since the federal pause and I checked today and I now only owe 2800 in private. Pretty sure I owe 11k in fed & I qualify for the 10k. Honestly trying not to cry from sheer relief.

I started at a company 4 months ago. Remote position. Didn’t receive equipment or access until 2 months in. Boss rarely hits me up. No training or projects. Other than 1 report I send daily, I am sitting all day, waiting. Big company. Pretty sure I was a diversity hire and in comparison to my peers, under-qualified. I’m blessed bc salary is great and remote role, but not challenged and if ever a lay off - I’d for sure be on list. I can do personal things and side hustle, but what would you do?

It startles me because I was a tough kid who didn't cry and just soaked it all in and rolled with it. I'm almost 40 and can't explain what's happening with these tears.
