I just read the letter she signed. I honestly didn't see anything egregious.

Hamas is bad.
Palestine is good.
Hostages need to be freed.
Israel and Palestine need to both be free and live in peace.

What am I supposed to be upset about?

Legion is my favorite show, period. She's phenomenal in it.

Would it be possible to re-release this as a free-to-play? I might try it if it was free.

I just finished Final Fantasy VIII on my phone last week. Now I'm trying to get back into my console games (Last of Us Part 2), but it's difficult with kids.

I might start up Final Fantasy X on my Switch.

I support it. They have a job to let viewers know that the radical information is not true, and they should not take it as valid information to get worked up over.

It's the difference between Trump sounding like a maniac vs exposing a controversy. They don't need to stop him from sounding like a maniac. They just need to clarify that he is, in fact, a maniac.

I respect that viewpoint. That was the most famous example. But I know people generally thought she was mean, crass, or shrill because she would call Trump names (accurately) during debates.

Being aggressive is cathartic for us who pay attention. But swing voters are inherently easier to push away and are inherently not as "sold" on Trump being a national crisis and don't like being told what to think.

But I'm just an armchair analyst. So maybe I'm way off.

Yes, 100%. It happened with Hillary. You remember the controversy of her deplorable comment, which was statistically factual?

Moderate Republicans might show up for Trump.
Left leaning centrists might stay home.
Swing voters who are friendly to Trump's economy might "both sides" their personalities.
Some centrists just give Trump a pass on his personality. But Democrats don't get the same leeway.

Unfortunately these are the voters that can swing the election.

Probably not, explicitly because the charge only applied to the kicking.

They could get longer if they find out who lit it on fire.

Unfortunately, I think if she's too aggressive or mean then it will turn off a lot of swing voters. It's smart to err on the side of caution.

We got F-bombs in the comments of the Harris-Trump post!

They absolutely only fact checked the wildest claims. The kind of stuff that radicalized people, like baby murder.

TBF, he still got some preferential treatment, which he said himself. What if he wasn't Tyreek Hill?

 

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 1 of the NFL Title Rankings of the 2024 season. See here for last week’s rankings.

The Chiefs beat the Ravens 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 Bengals will have a chance to take the title belt on Sunday.

With the Commanders losing to the Bucs, the Commanders will remain last place until their first win of the 2024 season. The Commanders will play the Giants 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. So let me know if it works for you on dark mode or how to fix that if you know.

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.

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 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.

 

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?

 

I got banned from an .ml community for basically nothing and I remembered .ml is the tankies instance. So I'm looking for an alternative so I can be off of the instance entirely.

 

FWIW, the community was worldnews@lemmy.ml.

I assume I was banned because I said I understood Biden opposing surgery on minors, specifically trans surgery. Although I disagreed with it.

 

OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) — Oklahoma’s top education official ordered public schools Thursday to incorporate the Bible into lessons for grades 5 through 12, the latest effort by conservatives to incorporate religion into classrooms.

 

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.

 

The House on Saturday passed a $95 billion aid package that includes two long-awaited bills with $60.8 billion of Ukraine aid and $26 billion in aid to Israel.

The Ukraine bill, which passed with 311 votes in favor, 112 votes against, and one present, will now head to the Senate alongside the Israel aid bill and two others — one with aid for Taiwan and another that forces Tiktok's parent company to sell it.

 

Wilson's release will end a disappointing chapter for both sides. The Broncos went 11-19 in Wilson's starts over two seasons and failed to make the playoffs.

The Broncos signed Wilson to a five-year, $242.6 million deal after his arrival and will take an $85 million hit in dead money over the next two seasons because of the release.

 

"Three U.S. C-130 cargo planes dropped 66 total bundles, equating to about 38,000 pork-free meals, into the territory on Saturday morning. The bundles were split between three planes, the official said."

"The airdrop is expected to be the first of many announced by President Joe Biden on Friday. The aid will be coordinated with Jordan, which has also conducted airdrops to deliver food to Gaza."
