One Thing That I Didnt Expect From The Acolyte Was The Revelation That Even Identical Twins Have Genetically

One thing that I didn’t expect from the Acolyte was the revelation that even identical twins have genetically different Midi-chlorians.

In a fan fic I’m writing I had an identical twin be brutally offed and the only way to positively ID them was through DNA and unbeknownst to everyone they identified the wrong twin.

Now I need to rethink the whole thing because they would be able to (possibly) make the correct identification of the dead twin.

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?

My theory is that they are either clones and/or they were meant to be a single person but were forcibly split into two people.

Whatever happened to create them wasn’t natural.

We know this because of the fact their symbionts are identical and they said even identical twins have different symbionts, so they are unnatural somehow.

I’m curious, what’s everyone’s theories/thoughts on Mae and osha being “one consciousness in two bodies” and what that means? And their connection to the vergence in the force?

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.
