I just realized that the Portland Antifascist Frog has singlehandedly reclaimed amphibians from the “alt right”. Yet another way he is a Great American.

Fun fact only one World Series has ever ended on anything other than a Strikeout or a Ball being hit into play.

Honestly the Jedi having no interest in fighting slavery may be connected to the fact that it might make their Janissary-esque recruitment style very much illegal!

The Alternate Historian @althistorian.bsky.social · 1d

That would fit into the theme of the prequel era Jedi having lost their way/became corrupted. More warriors than peacekeepers, no interest in ending slavery and if you have enough money they'll just pass on testing your m-count.
