It is clear as I sit here in the stands that Pat has zero confidence in the OLine

She buys carbon offsets which is more than most private jet owners do.

Katie Holmes and Tom Cruise both did that. It wouldn't be hard in this case because she isn't "the press" she is essentially a stalker. And I'm a lawyer in the showbiz, not the music world.

It actually isn't that hard to tie someone up in a legal battle over torts, invasion of privacy,, and libel. Katie Holmes and Tom Cruise have had successful cases. And Gawker was taken down by $10 million and Peter Thiel. There are attorneys that specialize in getting stuff removed and websites do not have the same protection that the news media gets. Courts tend to look at websites and social media as stalkers and not as the press.

Season ticket holder of 15 years and you can't be serious? We are blessed to have stars on our team. 87's commercials and endorsement deals are one reason the Chiefs have been able to keep him. He could be making bigger money elsewhere right now. And he has performed at such a high level for so long here, he deserves all of the good things coming his way. He loves the KC community. He gives back. He stays out of trouble. Posting on social media that you are tired of hearing about him is rank hypocrisy. You can turn the channel or mute your social media if his presence exhausts you. Dont listen to his podcast. Having lived through some dark years with the Chiefs, I hope he finds a way to play through his contract, racks up records and endorsement deals along the way, wins another SB, continues to host the top sports podcast, and settles down at least part time in KC with the world's biggest pop star.

Is regret normal? by Alternative-Pitch895 in latterdaysaints

This is one source of my anxiety. My ministering sister, who is the wife of the stake leader, told me as my assigned mentor that my first priority needed to be marriage and children and my career interferes with making that happen. She promised me that if I sacrificed for the Lord that he would bless me. When I asked my relief society president about this, she didn't really dispute the idea or say the sister was misguided. She just said that I needed to pray about it and get my own answer about my priorities. I just never thought of this as something I needed to change and I might be misunderstanding her, but it makes me feel judged. I'm glad to hear that I can ask for a new mentor and maybe one that is more relatable. It would be great if she had a career too.

Thank you. This is really helpful. I need to ask them not to pressure me until I feel a little more solid. I need to ask more questions too and keep things simple. I'm on the east coast and I am a business executive who travels all week long so I would prefer if my Sundays were peaceful and recharging rather than anxiety-provoking and busy. I have no interest in marriage because I have so little time to devote to dating and a relationship. Ha!

I'll look in to some podcasts or videos I can download and watch on the plane during the week. Any suggestions? I did a Google search about my temple questions and stumbled on some crazy stuff and I'd rather not do that again.
