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.

Okay I call bullshit. I have worked with 1000+ horses and not one of them liked having their head covered. I have trained all my personal horses to take a blindfold. It can be an essential piece of training and can save your horse's life someday. Just because they are trained to be blindfolded doesn't mean they want to be blindfolded. Especially in some stupid box thing that covers their whole head. That also diminish smell and hearing their two primary senses.
What you see here is a very well trained draft horse(probably a Percheron). Pulling horses are much more used to weird shit hanging off them. Also they always get some level of blindfold training, because they wear blinders when they pull.
I've been around plenty of horses that were much more comfortable in their fly masks and blinders than without them. I've seen them play and just do shit that I'm pretty sure they find humorous. Horses can be weird.
Fly masks are much different than anything that is blinding. They can see through them, they don't obstruct the nose or the ears. Most horses are fine with fly masks especially when they figure out they keep the flies off. Have met some horses that really hate them regardless of how many flies.
Yeah they are definitely very funny animals. Very curious yet flighty. I find a big difference between their willingness to do something that is my idea versus their idea.
I do not train horses but am an animal and have had a few animals as pets. No one likes shit on their head. I'm glad you gave credence from an actual expert on the subject but I could smell the bullshit from this caption a mile away.
