/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.

Main villain has a secret base that is filled with chairs with really high backs on all of them.

Instead of a training montage, there's a beard growing montage. That's when you know they mean business.

"You thinking what I'm thinking? It's time...".
"To grow the beard."

But then! Just as they're about to lose, there is no hope...

They combine their beards together into one unstoppable... uh, beard!

This thing just writes itself, we're not even doing anything!

I hated that episode. The teleporter is a death machine, Bones is correct.

What if sleep is also death and we awake a new person with all the memories of the old? We will never know

No need for Star Trek level technobabble to have an existential crisis: Your cells, organs, and bioelectric connections have been regrown and replaced countless times. Your "memory" as it were is doing the best it can to retain previous input while simultaneously replenishing itself.

Speaking of doubles, are there any episodes with a bizarro-Picard? As in it's legitimately Picard but this one's got a New Jersey accent, a beer gut and he's impolite and chauvinist and generally negligent in command, flouting the PD, etc. Time-travel Picard was cool but I want a polar opposite version.

[–] ummthatguy@lemmy.world 4 points 4 months ago (1 children)

You are in for a treat! Watch TNG s6e15 "Tapestry" wherein Picard gets a visit from Q to re-live a pivotal decision from his past. I'll try not to spoil too much, but suffice to say, this is basically the result:

Noice, I will look forward to it
