TenForward: Where Every Vulcan Knows Your Name
/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.

This was the first thing I thought of when I saw that episode.

Very happy you're here! You're one of the people that make this sub so much fun.
Seconding this. Love the star Trek memes. Even got my son into it.
Cheers!
Its been a pretty good year.
You say "Intrepid Decision", I say "The Coffee Machine Was Broken And It Was Dark And Clown Guy from That Voyager Ep Was Launching An IPO"....
I do not miss that clown's antics. Either one.
I haven't watch that episode in ages. I know he was supposed to be Fear but at no point was I able to suspend my disbelief. My brain settled firmly on, "oh hey look it's Michael McKean."
Thanks for that anxiety fuel, wtf is that thing on the left with the giant teeth?! Justin Trudeau lookin mofo over there MERCI NON
That would be The Spectre
Played by Carel Struycken
I didn't recognize him without the luggage.
Data's dreams aside, no motherfucker better ever give me cake with mint frosting. Giving me toothpaste cake is a good way to end our friendship for life.
It can be done well. One year, my son was into mint chocolate chip ice cream, peppermint patties etc and wanted a mint cake for his birthday.
It took a while adding mint drop by drop and taste testing but it eventually worked. It tasted like a giant green mint girl scout cookie. ( That was the basis of the recipe I worked from.)
One year on Lemmy for me as well. Thank you for all the memes. :)
Tranya ferments so well in the crawlspace behind McCoy's office. Consistent temperature plus patience and it's happy cake oven time.
I can't not think about Clint Howard saying that word when I hear it:
Okay I'm totally going to need some Sealab and Star Trek crossover memes now.
It'll have to be TAS, naturally. I'll make a note of it.
Hell yeah π
I definitely did not have Cheerleader Hesh on my internet bingo card for today.
Hesh!
Second that.
For medicinal purposes, of course.
Itβs been about a year for me, too. I never engaged in the Trek community βover thereβ, but yβall are a fun set of folks here. Cheers!
SlΓ inte!
Thanks for sticking around. I for sure appreciate the crazy amount of quality contributions not only to here, but Lemmy as a whole. Here's to more years!
Cheers to that!
Than it's been a year for me to! I'm not the kind to make friends but for sure I would never stay if there weren't for the whole star trek community!
I love the memes, I love to read the conversations. Every day they light my face with a smile if only for a moment!
This is really great!!
My contributing mostly happens in the anime community on Lemmy, but I'm so thankful to you guys.
Whenever I need some variety I come find a corner in tenforward to sit down and browse, and instantly my trekkie heart feels right at home.
Happy cellular peptide cake day!
Back atcha from a much less prevalent (on lemmy) sci-fi fandom.
Context
Context for the image requires spoilers from The Witch From Mercury, the latest entry in the long-running Gundam franchise.
Also, nested spoilers work. Neat.
spoiler Actual spoiler The prologue ends with a 4-year old joyfully singing along to happy birthday with her father, while said father sacrifices himself to allow his wife and child to escape the politico-corporate slaughter of a research lab. This is reprised later in the show when a 17-year old sings happy birthday to a friend over the PA, not knowing that the friend was getting incinerated elsewhere because his usefulness as a clone pilot had ended. :::
Proselytizing
Any Trekkie who isn't all-in on the ANIME BAD bandwagon, I implore you to give Gundam a try. There are a variety of starting points (as with Trek) and I'll be more than happy to field any questions.
I love Gundam, but not for the right reasons.
Terrible reason
Lumberjack Gundam Canada's fight against Desperado Gundam Mecixo.
I know everything about it is wrong, but it's both awesome and hilarious. I'm so sorry.
I, uh... ahem. I'll have a piece of that, please.
