Hello there. Somehow, Star Wars memes have returned. It's not a trap, this is where the fun begins.
==========
Other universes to visit:
Separatist systems:
Oh hey some real SW content for a change (perhaps):
!starwarstelevision@lemmy.world

IMPORTANT
Please do not post the "good friend" or similar copypasta

Our galactic citizens have requested more specific rules, so here are a few.
The general idea is, if you're looking here for rules, you're probably someone who doesn't need to have them spelled out. You're fine. But anyway:
-
This is a community for Star Wars memes. This means typically screenshots of Star Wars media with some text or context that's meant to be funny and/or thoughtful. All SW media is welcome: movies, games, comic books, fanart... Other kinds of content, like video links or meta memes (about this community, or Lemmy), are fine as well, just keep it on topic.
-
We are all friends here, and love (sometimes love to hate) Star Wars. Be nice to each other.
-
As fans of fictional media, we can be passionate. If you very strongly disagree with something or someone, take a deep breath before reacting. Anger leads to the dark side!
-
Everything in Star Wars has happened a long time ago, in a galaxy far away, and it's a rich universe of millions of words and millions of years of history. So current Earthly matters really shouldn't concern us here. In other words, leave politics, philosophies and convictions behind the door. This applies even if it's about something related to Star Wars.
-
Original content is preferred. Reposts are fine, just please limit to a maximum of 3 per day, per citizen. It is recommended, but not required, to mark original memes as (OC) and reposts as (repost).
-
Local mods are the Jedi council. They may take actions that are necessary to maintain peace and stability of the Republic, even beyond the rules outlined here. Follow their guidance.
-
Regular rules of the Lemmy.world instance apply.

This little bit of lore tries to be so horrifying with its “slow digestion over a thousand years” but wouldn’t you be dead from lack of water within 2 days?
(mad scramble)
“Acksully no, the Sarlaac taps into your bloodstream to provide you with sustenance the whole time so you stay alive and conscious.”
Okay but lifespans are not 1000 years even.
(madder scramble)
“Ackshully the Saralaac rewrites your DNA to extend your lifespan so you can be conscious over 1000 years.”
Wow that’s pretty impressive. How many species is its process compatible with? And how does such a lengthy expenditure of energy make sense, nutritionally? It takes more energy to keep a human body alive for 1000 years than the Sarlaac can possibly derive from one human corpse.
(mad mad mad mad scramble, this time using the Force)
“IT’S STAR WARS OKAY. STOP TRYING TO MAKE IT ALL DETAILED.”
Haven’t you been adding all the details?
“Mods! Rule 1!”
Maybe, and hear me out, it feels like it takes thousands of years.
How would we even know that?
You ask the almost dead guy who felt like he spent 999 years inside
