/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.

This one dispenses sound financial advice.

[–] teft@lemmy.world 12 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Ah yes, the Orb of Fiduciary Responsibility. That's a powerful orb experience.

We had one on earth about 50 years ago in the mid 1900s ... someone dropped it on the floor, broke the glass and all the water came out and it hasn't worked since then.

Bajorans: We got orbs!

Humans: Cool, cool, I like the glittery part. Hey, quick question. Why aren't they spheres?

Vulcans: A surprisingly reasonable question; orbs are typically three-dimensional spherical objects.

Andorians: Oh yeah that's cool, but not as cool as us, amirite?

Tellarites: That's no orb - it's hourglass shaped!

Klingons: I have heard that these "orbs" are powerful! But I shall not test it. There is no honor in battle against priests.

Ferengi: Huh. Weird. I don't think it's actually valuable. What was the name of this thing again?

Romulans: I feel like it's looking at me. Is it watching me? What does it know!? Get me away from it at once!

Borg: We are the Bor - ZAP!

Major Kira: What the hell are you all doing standing here cluttering the doorway of the temple? Don't you have something better to do? Go on, get! Shoo! Move it! And somebody find out where this damn drone came from! "Why aren't they spheres?" The nerve of some people!

Oddly I'm only seeing posts about posts about orbs, I guess the communities I'm in just aren't with it

[–] MelodiousFunk@slrpnk.net 8 points 3 months ago (2 children)

Be grateful that you're getting your orbs secondhand.

I can't think of a witty punchline

[–] ummthatguy@lemmy.world 5 points 3 months ago (2 children)

You remind me of the babe.

[–] MelodiousFunk@slrpnk.net 6 points 3 months ago

I appreciate the kind words but I'm an old fat bald guy. I feel bad for any babes I remind people of, regardless of power level.

Yeah but seriously tho... What power?

[–] ummthatguy@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago

Power of voodoo.

Stop playing with your balls
