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.

I let my wife convince me to get rid off all my books about 5 years ago. Players handbook, DM guide, monster manual, Dieties and demigods. Hopefully someone found them and put them to good use.
Why would she ever want you to do that? That’s so sad.
I’ve thought about giving away my rulebooks many times. I have a small collection that I will realistically never use, and that takes up a significant amount of space that we could use for things we actually need. As sad as it is, sometimes you have to let go of old memories to make room for new ones.
You'll take my 3 plastic bins worth of accumulated childhood junk, that will probably never see the light of day again, sitting in my parents basement for the last decade, which I couldn't remember most of the contents of if you put a gun to my head right now, from my cold dead hands. I might want to play with my sentimental pieces of plastic again when I get old enough to revert back into a five year old mentally.
Nah yeah at some point you gotta let that crap go, donate or ditch. Everyone should watch a few episodes of Hoarders once in their life.
Probably because they just collect dust and never get opened. I have a special box in the garage for all of my Calvin & Hobbes, and D&D first print books. I don't really ever open it, but I can't bring myself to give them away.
Those are cool enough to keep somewhere as decoration tbh. Put them in some glass or something. Or just cover them in plastic and put them on the coffee table y’know?
"Hey you haven't used these things in 30 years" is the perfect excuse when cleaning out the attic. I kept my dice, though; cold, dead hands and all that.
I suppose they're just not interesting enough to be considered coffee table books. I mean, I haven't looked at my (signed) Michael Whelan book in years, but that's not going anywhere. Ever. My wife got me that for my birthday one year - she does have her brilliant moments.
Of course, last year my daughter discovered RPG in college. sigh
My ex-wife did the same to me with just about everything I owned.
Notice how I said ex.
This is why I don't have a wife.
