Star Wars Day, celebrated annually on May 4th, is an unofficial international holiday started by and for fans of the Star Wars franchise. A pun of "May the Force be with you," "May the Fourth Be With You" first appeared in print in 1979.

For years, fans, franchise actors, and production members have shared messages and memes on social media to commemorate the day.

This year, actor Billie Lourd, who played Lieutenant Kaydel Ko Connix in Star Wars episodes 7-9—The Force Awakens, The Last Jedi, and The Rise of Skywalker—shared a special tribute.

In addition to being a member of the Star Wars cast, Lourd is the only child of franchise icon Carrie Fisher. A cast member of the original 1977 film, A New Hope, Fisher played Princess diplomat-turned rebel General Leia Organa through six of nine films and other related Star Wars productions even after her death in 2016.

To honor Star Wars Day and her late mother, Lourd shared a photo on Instagram of her own children watching their grandmother in Return of the Jedi.

You can see her post here:

The photo features her 4-year-old son, Kingston Fisher Rydell, and 2-year-old daughter, Jackson Joanne Rydell, who she shares with husband, actor Austen Rydell.

The official Star Wars franchise account shared some love.

During Tuesday's cabinet meeting while the press was in attendance, MAGA Republican President Donald Trump gave a rambling stream of consciousness speech that went all over the place before landing on paint versus gold leaf, leading people to again question the POTUS' mental acuity amid a notable cognitive decline.

In a disjointed monologue about the decor in the cabinet room, Trump said he stole a grandfather clock from Secretary of State Marco Rubio's office and chose a painting of James Polk because the frame matched the frame around his favorite President—Andrew Jackson.

Adams jumped on the latest Instagram trend this week, sharing his version of a “morning routine” video with his followers. The trend, which has already begun to fade, typically features sped-up clips of people going through their early rituals—complete with edits, ambient music, and timestamp overlays.
