/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.

So while not loving Discovery, it’s not so much the crying that got me, I just always feel like I’m watching therapy…innnn spaaaace. It just isn’t very interesting to me personally. I still found it enjoyable enough though.
I could sort of deal with that. I just didn't like how focused it was on Michael Burnham and how she is the most important person in the universe. Star Trek is supposed to be an ensemble show, and I would dare say that it shouldn't really have a main character with the understanding that the captain gets more focus generally. It also felt like the writers didn't really like Star Trek that much and there was a lot of stuff that didn't make sense if you poked at it.
I'd strongly argue against that last part considering Brian Fuller wrote for DS9 and was producer and writer for most of Voyager. Kurzman is also writer and producer for Picard and SNW.
