/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.

The character would make a pretty lousy Captain. Regular Captain anyway. Temporary in a crisis or something? Probably passable and good but Stamets hasn't shown himself to be particularly strong when it comes to that aspect of his role. He's very impacted by emotions and focuses on that and his science. Then again he never wanted to sign up with Starfleet in the first place. He got roped into it and has only been part of it for a handful of years, honestly not much more than Tilly. Starfleet roped him into the Klingon War with his research on the Mycelial Network. That only started a year before Episode 3 of DSC. Meaning that Stamets had been part of Starfleet for, at most, a year by the time we first see him. Explains a lot as to why he's so angry and bitter. Also why he changes so much on that front throughout the show.
I love my silly lil gay man
I was honestly not expecting such a well-thought-out response to this meme.
I love this platform!
btw, out of interest, did you find this yourself, or get notified by the mention? I'm trying to figure out how mentions work.
Eh, sometimes I find it more fun to take it seriously and respond in that manner. Besides I get to talk about something I think is cool. Lemmy is pretty fuckin dope.
Also, yes! I did find this post from your notification. I likely would have come across it anyway because I check the community frequently, but you let me know it existed well before I checked the community on its own.
