      ‘So long and thanks for all the fish!’ is what the dolphins say in the Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, when they leave the Earth and fly off into space, shortly before the Earth’s destruction to make way for a hyperspace bypass.

      The Purrgil’s in Star Wars are also a species of space-faring cetaceans and OP is making a meme linking the two.

        What is a Purrgil? I don’t remember that from the prequels or the sequels

          Space whales that paid a key plot role in Rebels and now again in Ahsoka? If all you’ve watched is the Prequel and Sequel movies (not even the OT?!) then there are going to be an awful lot of Star Wars memes you might not get.

            Jfc I haven’t kept up with the recent Disney SW stuff but it really sounds like they jumped the shark.

            Space-faring whales…cmon now

              Space-faring whale-squids that can jump to hyperspace.

              Space-faring whale-like creatures are an extremely common science-fiction trope.

                Being extremely common doesn’t make it any less stupid

        Oh, I don’t bother with DRM services like Disney plus.

        If I watch something its either on TV or DVD (powered by jellyfin)

Hello there. Somehow, Star Wars memes have returned. It’s not a trap, this is where the fun begins.

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:

  1. 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.

  2. We are all friends here, and love (sometimes love to hate) Star Wars. Be nice to each other.

  3. 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!

  4. 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.

  5. 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).

  6. 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.

  7. Regular rules of the Lemmy.world instance apply.
