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

Separatist systems:
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:
-
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.

At the top of the left one I could definitely see why people would think the black part is gold due to the lighting and exposure. I've never been able to grasp how people see white though, for me it's like saying a bluebird sky is white.
Edit: the wiki article on this is amazing
Thanks. Simply by looking at this image from the wiki, I was able to finally see it in blue and black. Once I focused on the color of the illumination, I was able to start seeing it correctly. And then I can switch back to seeing it in white and gold by zooming in completely on the black/gold section for a second.
The image actually explains how people see white as well. Both the white and blue sections inside of the colored squares are the exact same color.
The picture (the one in the OP, not the one I linked) has always been super weird to me, because if you invert the colors of the dress then it IS gold/white. Meaning the white/gold dress (in my eyes) would become gold/white when inverted, which made absolutely zero sense lol.
I think Lemmy can handle the original image
Well, I can't say I'm surprised lol.
That is a great image.
