is tumblr a "Star Wars site" now?

[–] Lumidaub@feddit.org 0 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (1 children)

If anything, it's still a Doctor Who site, if we're going by "biggest science-fiction franchise", but why would this poll suggest that?

Edit: oh wait because "shared to Star Wars sites". They meant tumblr blogs.

[–] RebekahWSD@lemmy.world 0 points 2 months ago

That poll broke containment real real quick in tumblr then, as it pops up on my dashboard a lot and no one I follow is Star Wars or adjacent at all lol.

I dunno, I've never heard of it.

Nobody hates a star wars fan like another star wars fan.

They are liking the thing I like the wrong way!

The bomber run physics were fine.

I'll see myself out.

Spaceballs and Galaxy Quest make you not just trusted, but require instant friendship.

never give up, never surrender!

unfortunately my view of trekkie gear has been clouded by reading the bobiverse novels...

As a Star Wars fan, I heartily concur

[–] trolololol@lemmy.world 0 points 2 months ago (2 children)

Even if it's a red shirt? You could be stuck in the cross fire lolol

[–] Lumidaub@feddit.org 0 points 2 months ago (2 children)

Since the red shirt draws all the fire they'd be safer than anywhere else.

In a fight, side with the person with the Stargate shirt. They probably have a gun and a claymore.

and naquadria enhanced NUKES, or blowing up the stargate, which is a "super nuke"

[–] Stampela@startrek.website 0 points 2 months ago

Or with the person wearing a red shirt, as it’ll… act as a lightning rod of sorts.

There's a guy at a customer's IT that regularly wears a Rebel Alliance hoodie. I've been wary of him since I first saw him.

[–] SharkWeek@lemmy.blahaj.zone 0 points 2 months ago

Revel Alliance feels better than "Star Wars" TBH, especially after the absolute jewel that was Andor.

[–] SharkWeek@lemmy.blahaj.zone 0 points 2 months ago (2 children)

The only sci-fi T-shirt I have is covered in Storm Troopers ... maybe I should think about upgrading (both me and my other half are Trek fans)

[–] grue@lemmy.world 0 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (1 children)

Star Wars shirts are a lot more common for cheap in stores like Walmart, to be bought on a whim. Star Trek shirts have to be specifically sought out online or at conventions or something, and tend to cost more.

That's why I, a trekkie, own more Star Wars shirts than Star Trek ones.

[–] SharkWeek@lemmy.blahaj.zone 0 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Yeah, I got mine in a thrift store ... makes sense.

I would like a Trek t-shirt, but being outside the US I'm sure it's even more difficult to find one :-/

[–] Honytawk@discuss.tchncs.de 0 points 2 months ago

Nah, plenty of geeky online stores in all places around the world.

But they do tend to have a limited selection of Star Trek shirts compared to Star Wars.

[–] lime@feddit.nu 0 points 2 months ago

yeah not a good look to have pictures of space nazi soldiers on your chest

[–] uber_chicken@lemmy.world 0 points 2 months ago (3 children)

Content not available in my region 😭

[–] Whats_your_reasoning@lemmy.world 0 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (2 children)

Here, I'll copy/paste it.

With Imgur and Reddit having all the silly restrictions, I'm not sure why more people don't upload their images directly to Lemmy?

[–] uber_chicken@lemmy.world 0 points 2 months ago

Thank you 🙂

[–] Lumidaub@feddit.org 0 points 2 months ago

I always feel bad for uploading anything here because I feel like I'm wasting precious space. Yes I know it probably doesn't matter at all but still.

[–] ashughes@feddit.uk 0 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I really don't understand why a user base predisposed to Lemmy is okay with using a proprietary centralized service that isn't globally accessible. I might understand it if Lemmy didn't support image uploads, but it does.

It's like you're not okay with your text being censored by private corporations and governments, but here, take my images and please make sure some people can't see it.

I get that some probably have muscle memory for certain services but it just seems like the majority here don't even care to unlearn it.

[–] uber_chicken@lemmy.world 0 points 2 months ago

Probably just habit. Or maybe a bot account?

I'm in England, so maybe the government have blocked it 👍😭 Sign of things to come I guess

Trying. I'll keep you updated 😂

I think part of it is also that a random stranger in a star wars shirt can be anyone. A random stranger in a star trek shirt is a nerd, and therefore more likely to be a cool dude.

[–] Kirk@startrek.website 0 points 2 months ago (6 children)

Yes exactly, you can walk up to anyone in a Star Trek shirt and by simply saying the phrase "favorite captain?" you'll probably have a new friend two hours later.

[–] Hexarei@beehaw.org 0 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (1 children)

... Or a new foe, two seconds later

The only Star Trek or Star Wars shirt I currently own is black with yellow gold lettering saying "Star Trek" in the Star Wars font. I think it makes some people uncomfortable. My S.O. hates it. I think it's hilarious and I know immediately what type of "nerd" I'm dealing with based on people's reactions to it. I suspect most people don't realize it's a joke or they are worried that I don't know it's a joke.
