/c/TenFoward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!

Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.

~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.

~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.

~ 3. Use spoiler tags. This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.

~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.

~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.

~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.

~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'

~ 8. No Political Upheaval. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.

Fun will now commence.

One of the more unique sci-fi stories in Trek, TNG S05E02. A one off episode that featured a race of aliens later reintroduced in Lower Decks. I don't want to spoil anything else but it's awesome.

Star Trek trivia is like being a midget at a urinal

I picked the wrong day to be a little person at a urinal.

[–] Dagwood222@lemm.ee 2 points 1 day ago

...which begs the question; when is it a good time to be a midget at a urinal?

Another pearl of wisdom when it comes to understanding Trekisms ....

If anyone is Karno, when his mind was fogged, this is a bad joke and not an explanation of Darmok and Jalad.
