Star Wars Memes
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

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.
According to a lot of "not movies" media, many people who were trained to be Jedi didn't make the cut. It's one of those things that required a combination of remarkable effort and sheer talent and most people who were potential Jedi just lacked the raw skill to be considered one. As such, the Jedi had a large support auxiliary of force sensitive attendants and custodians who basically took care of the grunt work of the Jedi order. They weren't true "Jedi Knights," but they were a part of the order. They just spent their time scrubbing toilets and doing paperwork rather than banging queens and dismembering enemies of the state with laser swords.
I would take any of those jobs over mine any day of the week. I get minor force powers but I gotta plunge a toilet and room and board is free? Yes please.
Somewhere, there was some poor Force Sensitive who got just enough of a connection to the Force to get massive anxiety while in the Temple but not enough to leave his gardening job before Order 66.
You are also forbidden from fucking and, I would imagine, also masturbating. I think that's the most interesting question about the Jedi Order: do they let their weird virgin space cultists shoot rope as long as it's not into a person? I'd imagine not.
I feel that there is high potential for someone who is force sensitive besides combat
Like force healers or a mechanic that can tell the internal structure of a machine and perhaps reattaching a wire without ever having to open it
Stuff like that I thing would be so cool and I feel it's highly underutilized
Some lightsabers worked that way, in the expanded universe media. You could only turn them on by using the force to toggle an internal power switch.
