@CameronCorduroy Set up a focus group with this ad (and other Paxton attack ads) with Texas voters. Film it like a YouTube react video. Cut the footage.
That’s your ad and it should work under fair use

is it copyright infringement to for Dems to just rip this ad and run it themselves? do PACs have intellectual property rights?

This is a real NRSC ad about the current GOP nominee

@TheJakeChristie Playing the entire redemption shit straight is fucking wild man. Genuinely what was season three
English
I still find the most baffling story decision in The Mandalorian the show to be him encountering Mandalorians who don’t wear their helmets who seem to be fine, and that NOT end with him realizing the helmet stuff is nonsense
Bobby Wagner@bwags
The main problem with Mandalorian and Grogu is that the lead character is incredibly, famously static. You can build TV shows around static characters because the episodic format allows you to pursue satisfying B-plots. It’s harder to build movies around static characters
English
@jetinarround You could have even kept the bones of season 3 and the BoBF episodes of him returning to his stupid cult because it’s all he knows and the “repenting” nonsense.
Only for him to struggle with his faith and making the decision to leave it so he can be with his son.
It’s not hard!
English
They were obviously always going to be reunited but the lack of restraint they showed was insane. Have season 3 be just him and over the course of the season he realizes how much he misses Grogu. Then the movie can be their reunion.
Insane fumble.
noah | @eliranto.bsky.social@eliranto
The way he stopped being a character after this
English
I think even more so than immediately bringing Grogu back, the worst thing they went back on from this scene was making Din’s helmet removal something he needed to make up for to his cult

Boy, I sure hope what was one of the most emotional endings in the entire franchise never gets undone!

@StoneHead153796 I’m pretty sure all the really smart ones died

No, Eve was an attempt to weaponize the limited smart atom technology Nolan shared with the GDA
Arguably Rex Splode too but that one’s a reach
Viltrumites modified themselves to all have smart atoms. They use them for everything when most species have only figured out how to use it for one thing
platonic chain@ChainPlatonic
@Fenrirtheicewo1 @MikeyNohMore What's really hilarious is that in supplementary materials, it is basically laid out that Viltrumites basically get their powers via a really scuffed version of Eve's ability('smart atoms' they unconsciously control). So she really should have just been Viltrumite+.

@freaky_frohicky That’s because he didn’t. It was the costume designers for TPM. They didn’t like the idea of Jedi being in all black or wearing anything different than Obi-Wan, Yoda, and Anakin were as force ghosts. They beat Lucas.
There’s even concept art of Obi-Wan in black like this.

Why the hell would george want every jedi to wear tatooine robes in the prequels when we already knew what Jedi knights looked like
Frank J. Fleming@IMAO_
The Jedi shouldn't have all dressed like Obi-Wan. He only wore that brown robe to look like a hobo on a desert planet.

@GeorgeT96516 @HHSGov @ASPRgov @CDCgov @StateDept Given what we know about this strain and without more information on how long this individual has had the virus and/or symptoms, it’s possible if not likely they’re in early stages and the viral load will increase as the virus increases. Seems so irresponsible to underplay this
English
@HoIthis @HHSGov @ASPRgov @CDCgov @StateDept Mildly positive = The virus is detectable, but at low levels.

HHS through @ASPRgov and @CDCgov is supporting @StateDept in the repatriation of 17 American citizens from the MV Hondius cruise ship affected by the Andes variant of hantavirus.
All 17 are currently en route via @StateDept airlift to the United States, with two of the passengers travelling in the plane's biocontainment units out of an abundance of caution. One passenger currently has mild symptoms and another passenger tested mildly PCR positive for the Andes virus.
As of now, the airlift will transport passengers to the ASPR Regional Emerging Special Pathogen Treatment Center (RESPTC) at the University of Nebraska Medical Center/Nebraska Medicine in Omaha, Nebraska before taking the passenger with mild symptoms to a second RESPTC at its final destination.
Upon arrival at each facility, each individual will undergo clinical assessment and receive appropriate care and support based on their condition.

People quirkifying adhd/autism & turning it into a superpower is how we get here. I've almost lost jobs due to meltdowns from overstimulation. It's ruined multiple friendships/relationships bc l don't understand cues. It's stressful and fucking sucks sometimes

@emilykmay @EricMGarcia Whether it’s ignorance or malice this I’ve seen this attitude targeted towards increasing access to AAC devices and have heard some of these parents say that AAC devices are fake of aren’t evidence based
English
@emilykmay @EricMGarcia There was a big fight over getting funding for research into communication methods for autistic nonspeakers with and without intellectual disability and the profound supporters leaned on the RPM and FC controversies to oppose the concept of even looking further
English
parenting a child who has no spoken language is difficult enough without "neurodiversity affirming" people online saying they "get the ick" when they see parents talk about being sad that their kids can't speak to them. it's framed as us "not accepting our kids." GTFO.
English
I've been tempted for a long time to write about the backlash toward neurodiversity and autism acceptance that happened in the 2010s. We don't just see it with RFK Jr. We see it with calls to split up the autism spectrum and the discussions around profound autism.

It's been clear for a hot minute an anti-autism diagnosis campaign is in the works but I am genuinely stunned they are literally just going for the Detransitioner playbook
