TenForward: Where Every Vulcan Knows Your Name
/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.

If your power goes out for more than a couple hours in the winter, bring everyone in the house to a medium sized room and build a pillow fort. Hang up blankets over all the entryways and windows in that room, and get comfortable. It might sound silly, but it's a lot easier to keep a single room warm than the entire house and it could save the life of you or someone you care about.
My dog knows to crawl under my covers; everyone else is on their own. (Plus we’ve never had an outage long enough to worry about it)
The good thing about having two dogs is that they're cuddly space heaters who occasionally fart. lol
I actually do have an emergency plan for this scenario. Back corner of the finished basement is the most insulated part of the house, so it's where we go in weather emergencies (tornado warnings, etc).
It's also possible to build a very effective and safe alcohol space heater with about $7 of parts, which can be kept on-hand in case of emergency.
Set up a tent. I sat in my nieces little play tent once and it was hot in there even with the "door" and "window".
