/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.

@jawa21@startrek.website for realizing that the line used to be "want to be added to the sidebar?" and capitalized on it. Congratulations and welcome to the sidebar. Stamets is both ashamed and proud.

I would be genuinely astounded if anybody does anything other than go to work, keep their head down, and try to survive... But more power to you, my guy

I already am. I've started meeting people in my community and joining local aid groups to help out people who are falling through the cracks. I've gone to school meetings and pushed back on the screechy mom's against reason.

Not everyone needs to burn down buildings. Not everyone should. Just pushing against the bad stuff and making them work for every inch helps.

You have my respect and support, friend 👍

Everyone can do something, even if it's small. Simple sabotage like non-compliance, malicious compliance, malicious incompetence, "forgetting" in a way detrimental to the government, even just vocally/visibly supporting minorities and denouncing the current government helps.

Not everyone realizes this, but if you spread the word on these simple methods, we can slow them down and frustrate their plans. And that is an act of resistance, too.

I hope you'll buck the trend, and show them it can be done :)
