/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. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.

Fun will now commence.

Garak, stop talking about Dr. Bashir that way

Can't wait for the buddy cop spinoff: Bisexual Fashion Lizard and The Twink.

Doctor The Twink, PhD

[–] aeronmelon@lemmy.world 5 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

He didn’t spend seven years at Starfleet Medical to be called Mister.

[–] echodot 1 points 2 weeks ago

But he does perform surgery so it is Mister - medical professional names are weird

He may be a twink but he still had a hard-on for both part-worms

Watch The Irishman Suffer

ROFL

[–] RizzRustbolt@lemmy.world 15 points 2 weeks ago

Dude was a mechanical genius who eventually became Grand Nagus. But sure, he's an idiot.

Why does a space station need a captain anyways? It's not like it's going anywhere.

[–] DmMacniel@feddit.org 26 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

pretty sure The Sisko started as a Commander, then got a tough little Ship and promoted to Captain, then he became a God.

[–] kaitco@lemmy.world 11 points 2 weeks ago

then he became a God.

As is tradition.

Uhh, it was in orbit over Bajor, and now it's out front of a wormhole. It sure as shit wasn't Q or the Borg who moved it, now was it?

[–] RizzRustbolt@lemmy.world 15 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

No, it was an overworked Irishman.

[–] marlowe221@lemmy.world 4 points 2 weeks ago

You’re damn right!

[–] billiam0202@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

Yes, but who gave the order?

[–] RizzRustbolt@lemmy.world 6 points 2 weeks ago

The Prophets.

[–] alsaaas@lemmy.dbzer0.com 9 points 2 weeks ago

Don't forget the communist conventions and baseball games!

WHO is the hologram of Frank Sinatra? What am I missing??

[–] Underwaterbob@lemm.ee 9 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Vic Fontaine. A lame, self-aware hologram introduced in season 6 who gives relationship advice mostly.

[–] aeronmelon@lemmy.world 5 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

lame

How DARE you, Sir!

Pistols at dawn!

[–] PenguinMage@lemmy.world 4 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Phasers or disruptors sir/ma'am, we are civilized here. Even if that one wasn't.

[–] aeronmelon@lemmy.world 4 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

Those little garage door opener phasers from the first season of TNG.

[–] Underwaterbob@lemm.ee 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I've come around a bit on Vic. In my current DS9 re-watch, I just got to the episode where Nog goes to live with him in the holo-suite and he helps him overcome his trauma. He's way less lame (and creepy) than when he tricks Odo into dating real Kira by telling him she's a hologram.

I got curious and went Wikipediaing. The guy who played him died two months ago. Now I feel like a complete ass for dissing him at all.

[–] aeronmelon@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

He did come out of left field, but he’s a pretty good character.
