dank memes

Rules:

  1. All posts must be memes and follow a general meme setup.

  2. No unedited webcomics.

  3. Someone saying something funny or cringe on twitter/tumblr/reddit/etc. is not a meme. Post that stuff in /c/slop

  4. Va*sh posting is haram and will be removed.

  5. Follow the code of conduct.

  6. Tag OC at the end of your title and we'll probably pin it for a while if we see it.

  7. Recent reposts might be removed.

  8. Tagging OC with the hexbear watermark is praxis.

  9. No anti-natalism memes. See: Eco-fascism Primer

One, I suspect totally unintentional, thing I kinda like about the Star Wars world building, is it seems like most alien species are a bit "whatever" about all the political shit the humans are getting into.

Clearly there are exceptions, you seem some aliens with the rebellion, a few aliens get close to humans and get involved in their affairs (Chewbacca), but it seems like a lot of them just have an attitude of "not really our business". Which is kind of how I expect things would be if we ever ended up in a universe with a lot of diverse sapient species, some would get involved with our affairs but most would just be like "hey I'll trade you some Wagpog for your Dingloo and I don't really give a shit about anything beyond that".

There's also probably a heap of aliens who are like "okay I breath Methane and everyday I interact with humans I have to wear this stupid suit, can I just deal with my shit right now thanks?"
