Yeah, Anakins Line In TPM Is Ambiguous When It Comes To Timing.

Yeah, Anakin’s line in TPM is ambiguous when it comes to timing.

Was he three or so when they came to Tatooine or was he about three when Watto won them?

Wait a minute. We know that Darth Plagueis learned to use the Force to create life and stop people from dying—at least according to Palpatine. We also know that Mae and Osha were created from the Force as a direct result of the vergeance…

I thought he was spying on Qimir as his Sith master, but what if he’s actually spying on Osha? What if we’re going to see how Plagueis learned to create life?

To answer your questions.

We do not have a canon timeline on when Anakin and Shmi were sold to Gardulla or when they came to Tatooine.

Canonically, we know that Shmi had been enslaved by Hutts or someone in their cartel, before Anakin’s birth based off his comment to Ahsoka in the Zygerrian Arc in TCW that his mother had been sold in a slave market similar to the one on Zygerria before being bought by the Hutts.

At some point Shmi became pregnant with Anakin.

At some point Shmi and Anakin were sold to Gardulla (there’s some fan speculation that Shmi was pregnant with Anakin when they were sold).

Gardulla owned them until she lost them to Watto betting on Pod Races.

In Legends Shmi and Anakin were brought to Tatooine when he was about three after Gardulla moved there.

There is no canonical timeline when Shmi came to Tatooine.

Wait a minute. We know that Darth Plagueis learned to use the Force to create life and stop people from dying—at least according to Palpatine. We also know that Mae and Osha were created from the Force as a direct result of the vergeance…

Tesla is tanking so hard it is dragging the entire EV segment's sales down into the negative. When you omit Tesla from the equation, EV sales are up 13% across the board.

Don't let anyone tell you EV sales are in a slump.

Right-Wing Activists Have A Big Target This Year— And It Could Impact The Elections

Election officials and voting rights experts are worried about the impact on 2024.

“I have yet to find one of them that I felt was credible enough for me to actually file documentation for that voter,” he said. “So as a good steward for voter registration, which is what I’m charged with doing, I should not act upon stuff that is proven to be not credible.

”This year, election officials like Wilcox have spent valuable time sorting through pages of these mass voter challenges. And voting rights advocates worry that the trend could result in eligible voters being removed from the rolls, or from accommodations like being on lists to automatically receive ballots in the mail.

. . .

But experts and election officials who spoke to HuffPost said voters should confirm their registration status now — before the November election season heats up — just to be safe.

. . .

The month following that election, True the Vote teamed up with Georgia Republicans to challenge the eligibility of more than 364,000 voters in the state, based in part on U.S. Postal Service address-change data.

. . .

Some voters only found out their registrations had been challenged when they didn’t receive requested ballots in the mail for Georgia’s January 2021 U.S. Senate run-off election. Ultimately — after courts stepped in — the vast majority of these challenges were rejected. True the Vote’s list “utterly lacked reliability” and “verge[d] on recklessness,” a federal judge later observed.

. . .

At least one Georgia county has signed a contract to use the software, and in May, the director of the Florida Division of Elections sent county officials a list of 10,000 names to review that a local “concerned citizen” had generated with EagleAI.

. . .

Other efforts are state-based, including the “Pigpen Project” in Nevada and “Soles to the Rolls” in Michigan. Some even go so far as to go door to door to ask voters to confirm their information, raising concerns about intimidation. The Republican Party is also involved in the effort — in June, a federal judge rejected a GOP lawsuit alleging Nevada officials had failed to properly maintain voter rolls. (The GOP’s data was “highly flawed,” the state said.) A similar suit, against the state of Michigan, is ongoing.

And some states have made mass challenges even easier. In Georgia, S.B. 202, passed in 2021, allowed anyone to formally challenge an unlimited number of registrations, and S.B. 189, passed this year, requires voters to defend their registration against even frivolous challenges, sometimes at in-person hearings. It faces a lawsuit.
