@queenveej π I wanted toilet paper and the brand I wanted was out. Guy says "Hey do you want (store brand 1-ply)". I said "I prefer Angel Soft or any organic brand" . He replies "Nice π". He buys the 1-ply store brand πππ . I think he thought I was making conversation π.

@leahfrombklyn I don't think this is a good example of that at all π . I don't know if most apartments in that area are $1850 (hopefully not but who knows) . Probably the tenant can look for an apartment that suits their budget since they don't have to pay? . Like the tenant is being rude here.

@DeeDeeEHughes @moniza_hossain This isn't an absolute rule. Most of the men who have been attracted to me said it was because I can make them laugh.

@JoshuaPHilll Was thinking about landlords last night and how paying rent feels like having my life force drained. What if we just ended rental property and everything was ownership only - and changing hands, like moving to a new apt, just meant selling to the next person w/o middle man.

@Theholisticpsyc I've never liked this viewpoint. Manipulation is definitely about trying to coerce something out of another person, but people pleasing isn't trying to do that. When I people please, I'm trying to avoid reactions, anger, disappointment, abandonment, that I also have experience.

@yourariesmedia Black characters: participate in same story as the white characters . "Wow they're being used to advance the white storyline.". Like, you forcefully ignored Lucas' whole "popularity or geek" storyline, his moral decision on staying with Jason or not, the bonding with Erica whew.

@GetFitWithJared @Films_At_Home @ModernVintageG Agreed. They need to provide a partial refund. "Purchase" means ownership, not rental. If they revoke access, that's not ownership.

Bring Back The Acolyte. #RenewTheAcolyte.
Derek Hoffman has been appointed Lucasfilm's new Vice President of Development and will now oversee live-action projects. Hoffman worked on each film in theΒ X-Men franchise, in addition to the shows Legion and The Gifted.

On a separate note ever since we did the math and figured out #TheAcolyte budget was covered in 3 months of subscriptions I've been frustrated by us bringing up the budget. The budget is fine. #SaveTheAcolyte #RenewTheAcolyte
#TheAcolyte is far from perfect, but i've seen far worse shows get a chance to return and improve upon what the first season established. Lower the budget, less BIG special effects spectacle, save money from sets already built, but to just GIVE UP is unacceptable for #StarWars.

Indigenous knowledge *is* science. You guys are literally wrecking the world like morons (the latest - let's use thousands of tons of fresh water to cool computers running AI, because THAT'S smart π). We've been here telling you how to progress WITHOUT doing that. This is good.
Without resistance, this stuff will eat up science, the same way that Greenism ate up real, humanist environmentalism

Much needed article from @Variety . The toxic trolls gain power when you give into their demands @Disney. That makes life worse for your female, PoC and gay/trans fans . Follow through on your initial decision to greenlight the show and #RenewTheAcolyte #TheAcolyte #AcolyteS2
Toxic fandoms have grown so powerful that while talent, executives and publicists privately bemoan the issue, fear of triggering another backlash kept several studios from speaking for this story.

@yourariesmedia This thread gives massive crab in a barrel vibes and was deeply unnecessary. You can just be happy for the actors (who don't have any more or less development than characters like Dustin and Mike).

@patmorais @Massawyrm I was thinking about this earlier. It has far less users than FB or IG but global thought is driven from here. There's the highest ability to have robust conversations that no other site does right now. Twitter is the most significant site for global thought.

It's also wildly irresponsible to frame the Acolyte as being "controversial" when it was actually the subject of a months-long hate campaign that fans are still suffering from daily. The hate campaign, driven by alt-Right YouTubers, was so bad that a counter-campaign was launched
Disney has revealed that its controversial Star Wars streaming show The Acolyte came in "over the production budget" with its costs hitting $230.1m.

@bellofromthebay Oof. First reaction is I hate that story. Second reaction is who let her patent the technique π₯΄??? The US? Is the US holding authority over the Philippines? Or did the Philippines government let her patent it? . A lot of stuff it sounds like some government enabled.

π―π―πβ. Why did predominantly white Star Wars fanboys make it their mission to end support for #TheAcolyte through review bombing Rotten Tomatoes and IMDB and attacking all fans here on Twitter? . They told us - "the Woke agenda." . They HATED Amandla Stenberg in the lead.
Itβs depressing to think about the fact that unless thereβs already a Black showrunner (Shonda Rhimes, Mara Brock Akil etc.) or the star is also the showrunner (Issa Rae, Quinta Brunson etc.) Black actresses are barely if ever considered to lead TV shows.

@yasmineelsabawi Thank you for calling attention, but also, many many many other people endure similar atrocities. Syria is right there, for starters. Let's not erase the suffering of other people. Palestinians are not unique in this, and that's why we fight for them.

@George_Dubs_ @dieworkwear $100 per hour isn't necessary, $25 per hour is fine, with laws to limit price gouging on housing as we should have had all along because housing shouldn't be a profit vehicle because everyone needs housing.

@TheAgentNDN I was already feeling a way when the people fleeing Al Shifa said a drone was sniping people . It may be worthwhile to really set down why, although killing is horrific, automated killing isn't a direction we can allow ourselves to move down.

@sqookylol @thornhawthorne No that's always what I think. I use a cane. "Walkable cities" means distances I can't walk, with no car access to drop me off at places, stairs, probably no benches because "everyone can walk," uneven pavement that's more exhausting, and more obstacles I can't think of right now.

Crazy hit piece from @Forbes which genuinely reads like it was written by an 18-year old incels (when did "anti-woke activists" become journalistic language?). Even more insane, buried far down in the article is a mention of the funding received from the UK. #RenewTheAcolyte
Disney just shut down all HATERS and revealed the budget for the Acolyte was not $180,000,000 like it was falsely reported!! . The actual budget was $230,000,000

Also just saw this. Paul refutes my tweet about the Acolyte, which is fair. Viewership did drop by like 30% by episode 8. My point was about how these media outlets frame success differently. Acolyte did end up with 7 million views at the finale. #RenewTheAcolyte.
