Drake "Hotline Bling" meme. Top panel: "There weren't any autistic people when I was growing up" Bottom panel: "My undiagnosed, largely emotionally-unavailable grandfather who took wildly meticulous notes and who, as far as we can tell, never once looked at the camera when a picture was being taken in all of his 96 years on this planet"

I've been following @dieworkwear.bsky.social long enough to know that this list is useless without an appearance by the Ralph Lauren Polo Bear

So, the reason I use Dead Bothans (other than "it sounds cool & would be a good band name") requires knowing a bit more about the species than you get in Return Of The Jedi; they prize information as a source of power & influence & also tend toward paranoia & selfishness. So, y'know...social media.
Screenshot from the Bothans entry on Wookieepedia: Society and culture "You have to understand that Bothans think in terms of political and persuasive influence, not military power. The typical Bothan's goal is to go through life getting more and more people to listen to what he has to say." ―Sena Leikvold Midanyl Bothan culture was guided by the philosophy and principles set forth in the ancient text known as The Way, written by Golm Fervse'dra. In this "Bothan Way", the pursuit of power and influence was paramount. Thus, individual Bothans put their own political and economic success above all other concerns, and as a species, Bothans put their own advancement ahead of other intergalactic interests, though many did side with the Rebel Alliance during the Galactic Civil war. The volume of backstabbing, subtle character assassination and political maneuvering in Bothan society was dizzying, and resulted in many species stereotyping Bothans as untrustworthy.
