/c/TenForward: 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.
Use spoiler tags in comments, and NSFW checkbox for posts.
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.

And what would you carry in there, anyway? You don't need money or credit cards and the computer can voice ID anyone in the rare instance that authorization is actually ever needed. Doors all open automatically, so you don't need keys. What does that leave? Maybe menstrual products, so let's assume everyone's using cups.
Phaser, tricorder, medical tricorder, flashlight (if not the wrist strap type), cordrazine, snacks. Pretty standard stuff.
A lot of that is pretty bulky, so it goes on the utlity belt or shoulder strap.
I don't think I've ever seen an away team eat snacks, and if they were eating them, it's not at all clear how they carried in the field. I'll have to do more research.
