Read them. Know them. Follow them. Know your rights.
What’s really going to blow your mind is when you realize that if you organize you could ultimately have any rights you want.

Hello there. Somehow, Star Wars memes have returned. It's not a trap, this is where the fun begins.
Technical note: if you're coming from another star system and are getting a "Subscription pending" message when trying to dock, that's just the console being slow to display the right message. The connection is already established. (Probably.)

IMPORTANT
Do not post the "good friend" or similar copypasta

Special days!
Friday and weekends: Caption contest. An image will be pinned, and we shall make captions for it and post them in the comments.
Wednesday: Theme day. We have Droids day, EU day, poem day, aliens day... Let the pinned post guide you. Memes with the theme are preferred.

Other universes to visit:
Separatist systems:
Oh hey some real SW content for a change (perhaps):
==========
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.

If you work with machines that contain rapidly spinning axles, make sure you have pictures on your phone of the... aftermath... of what happens when people fuck with them, in case someone wants to fuck with them.
Dude my brother has fix people up after shit like that. Not pretty, or that fixable
On a lighter note, ge gas removed 1 snow globe from a man's butt
Scholarship kid refused to take gloves and arm guards off at the lathe.
One video later, it's not a problem anymore.
I got a talking to for that. Not a serious talking to, but a talking to.
Talk to your co-workers about your pay and their pay. Even if it is just to get them comfortable being in a position of talking about their wants for a job openly. You'll find you have a lot in common.
I helped my co-worker understand why he was due for a raise when I showed him our boss was paying skilled workers like him in the bottom 5% of the national average. He was an electrician making $32,000 yearly. Roughly $17 an hour. He was working a night job to put food on the table.
What I wasn't prepared for was half a dozen electricians demanding a raise from my boss a few days later. And my boss denying my yearly raise.
I left the company shortly after to greener pastures. I regret nothing because they got their raises.
