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

Oh hey some real SW content for a change (perhaps):

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:

  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.

Different species. Jar Jar is a Gungan, the lady is Queen Julia of Bardotta.

So which is the dominant gene and how would their kids turn out?

They might not even be sexually compatible

Not for lack of trying!

[–] brbposting 15 points 7 months ago

Yousa thinking… mesa pp gonna pry?

[–] [email protected] 11 points 6 months ago

How are they gonna do it?

Oppa, Gungan style!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 7 months ago (2 children)

is that what different species means?

[–] [email protected] 7 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Explicitly yes, a species is where fertile offspring can be produced.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 7 months ago (3 children)

Well, most of the time, anyway. Biology is far too messy for that to be a hard and fast rule, as it turns out.

Example: Grolar bears.

It holds up for most of the animal kingdom, at least.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Yeah species is actually a made up concept with no grounding in empirical science. Scientists just decided to invent species to make their jobs easier.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 months ago (1 children)

What defines a species is whether or not the offspring of two individuals can have offspring.

A lion and a tiger can make, however Ligras are infertile, so they’re different species.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 months ago

Nah that's not true. Haven't you ever heard of crossbreeding flowers? Plus there's an example very close to home in the interbreeding of sapiens and neanderthals

[–] Ajen 7 points 7 months ago

I mean, horses and donkeys can reproduce with each other. Doesn't mean their offspring will be fertile...

[–] [email protected] 21 points 7 months ago

One eye in one eye out.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 6 months ago (1 children)

So it's interspecies erotica?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 months ago (1 children)

You make it sound like that's a bad thing?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 months ago

It's a movie reference.
