How dare you. They'll also be sexist and homophobic. And xenophobic. And aporophobic. And transphobic.

I like it. I wouldn't mind the 40 either. 35 to 40 feels like the range where kickers will really try to avoid it as much as possible.

LGBTQ+ will only legally be allowed to promote straight people going forward.

Or they'll make the correct decision that there is no basis, and they'll get praised for making a rational decision (in a 7-2 ruling).

Republicans really do get praised for almost doing the bare minimum.

I have had so many conversations from casual progressive conspiracy theorists about how they think all the Democrats get together and agree on the fall guy (most recently, Manchin) to keep issues on the table indefinitely. You see it constantly with these Jill Stein people. I've literally told them the only solution is to give liberal Democrats the majority, which they haven't had in my lifetime.

95% of my values HEAVILY align with the left, but they also

a) are vaguely lazy and I don't identify with that

b) go way too far on issues I've done zero research on

c) never pass legislation due to never having enough political power

So I can't support them.

I should've added a /s.

NFL Title Rankings Week 4, 2024 Season (lemmy.world)
 

This is an objective, unbiased ranking in the same vein as the NFL Title Belt. As such, the number 1 ranked team will always be the same as the current NFL Title Belt holder.

This is Week 4 of the NFL Title Rankings of the 2024 season. See here for last week’s rankings.

The top 5 teams below the top ranked Chiefs lost to lower ranked teams last weekend, meaning the lower ranked team jumped them into the top 10.

The Chiefs beat the Chargers to keep the NFL Title Belt and first ranking. The Chiefs will hold the NFL Title Belt until their first loss of the 2024 season. The Saints will have a chance to take the title belt on Sunday.

With the loss of the Chargers to the Chiefs, the Chargers will remain last place until their next win. The Chargers will play the Chiefs Sunday to move out from last.

Let me know if you’d like to see more of this, if you’re curious about how I came up with these rankings, or if you noticed any mistakes. Also, the table text seems to not show on dark mode on PC.

1 Chiefs -- The Chiefs beat the Chargers to keep the NFL Title Belt and first.
2 Ravens +9 The Ravens jumped 9 spots by beating the Bills.

5 Steelers -2  
6 Lions +17 The Lions jumped 17 spots by beating the Seahawks.
7 Seahawks -3  
8 Broncos +13 The Broncos jumped 13 spots by beating the Jets.

15 Raiders -5  
16 Vikings -4  
17 Texans -4

27 Packers -1  
28 Titans -1  
29 Dolphins -1  
30 Jaguars -1  
31 Cardinals -1  
32 Chargers -- The Chargers will remain last until their next win.

This ranking assumes that there are never any fluke games and all teams are appropriately ranked. If you beat a team that is higher ranked than you, you move ahead of them and they move down one spot. However, other teams can jump in front of teams that are higher ranked than you, moving you further down the rankings.

This is an objective, unbiased ranking in the same vein as the NFL Title Belt. As such, the number 1 ranked team will always be the same as the current NFL Title Belt holder. You can see the original belt that inspired my own here, which they are now updating again.

This is Week 3 of the NFL Title Rankings of the 2024 season. See here for last week’s rankings.

10 of the 16 games this last weekend ended with the lower ranked team jumping the higher ranked team.

The Chiefs beat the Falcons to keep the NFL Title Belt and first ranking. The Chiefs will hold the NFL Title Belt until their first loss of the 2024 season. The Chargers will have a chance to take the title belt on Sunday.

With the Panthers beating the Raiders, and 3 other bottom ranked teams winning, the Chargers are now last place until their next win. The Chargers will play the Chiefs Sunday to move out from last.

If the Chargers are able to beat the Chiefs this weekend, they could move from last to first.

Let me know if you’d like to see more of this, if you’re curious about how I came up with these rankings, or if you noticed any mistakes. Also, the table text seems to not show up with browser default dark mode. So if that's happening to you, you can switch the theme on your Lemmy profile to dark mode.

Sorry for the delay, folks. I like to get these out before the Thursday game starts. So I dropped the ball here.

Arkansas secretary of state's office responds in abortion referendum lawsuit (4029tv.com)
 

The secretary of state's response filed Monday agrees that a staff member got an e-mail asking for a copy of what to submit. It states that a staff member replied with a Word document.

However, the response states that what the staffer emailed was "an internal recordkeeping document" and not any sort of template. The response states that no such template exists.

The response also denies Arkansans for Limited Government's claim that attorneys and representatives with the secretary of state's office assured the group it had filed the necessary paperwork.

Jack Black axes tour over bandmate's Trump comment (www.bbc.com)
 

Jack Black has said he’s cancelled the rest of the Tenacious D world tour after his bandmate Kyle Gass sparked an outcry with a comment about the assassination attempt on Donald Trump.

The comedy rock group were on stage in Sydney, Australia, on Sunday when Gass was asked to make a wish after being presented with a cake for his 64th birthday.

He appeared to reply: "Don’t miss Trump next time."

Gass also split with his agent following the incident.

How does spam get past searches and filters? (lemmy.world)
 

I get a lot of spam. In the subject it might say something about Home Warranty. The sender will say Home Warranty (the actual sender will be randomwords@randomwords.com).

But whenever I use my email's search engine, to delete all emails that say "Home Warranty", it can't find them.

Do people usually just ignore these types of emails?

Reggie Bush has his 2005 Heisman Trophy back, as the Heisman Trust announced Wednesday the formal "reinstatement" of the trophy to Bush amid what it calls "enormous changes in the college football landscape."

The Heisman Trust's decision comes after Bush forfeited his Heisman Trophy in 2010 in the wake of significant NCAA sanctions for USC, which included Bush receiving improper benefits during a Trojans career that spanned from 2003 to 2005.
