/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.

If it creates such a wall of separation, take her name instead. Problem solved.

When someone you like, also dislikes someone you dislike.

I demanded (not really) that my wife keep her last name. We have the same first name although spelled slightly different

I think you would have to physically fight my wife to make her relearn her signature with a new name.

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 7 points 1 month ago (1 children)

My wife's first name and my last name would sound really awkward together, which is the main reason why she kept hers and why it never bothered me that she did.

It is annoying to have to explain to people at places like hospitals that we're married even though we have different last names.

[–] wise_pancake@lemmy.ca 6 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I haven’t run into that yet

We don’t have kids and don’t plan to, I imagine with kids this becomes much more of an issue

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 7 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Yeah, that is definitely another time when it's been a pain. Picking up a kid from daycare or school.

My daughter shares my last name, so when my wife came to pick her up, I sometimes got a phone call. Even if we filled out a form putting both of our names on it.

Isn't it scary to see the count difference between Matt's tweet vs Jeffrey's reply ? Thanos snap isn't going to cut it...

Calling it now. His next movie is "Am I a misogynist?" and in it he will prove that he is indeed one.

I enjoy the couples who both change their last names, usually a mashup of the two previous names. That's the ticket.

[–] ThirdWorldOrder@lemm.ee 5 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I hate hyphenated last names. It’s more of an aesthetic thing though and not really something I actually care about. If I were a kid and had to put a long ass last name on every paper I’d be rather annoyed (my last name is long to begin with)

Long story short, my wife and I have been married 10+ years. She just changed from her maiden name to mine a couple weeks ago. I kinda miss her old name, it feels weird having the same name now.

I'm a woman and paid to change my surname because it was difficult for everyone to pronounce. I can only hope my future husband will want to take my name rather than the other way around. I paid for it, it's kinda VIP now.

[–] lohky@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago

My wife didn't change her last name because we both forgot about it in the timeframe where it was easy to do and now we don't want to putz with it. 🤷

I also still don't have a wedding ring. We just had our sixth anniversary a few days ago.

If Matt Walsh wasn’t openly a male supremacist I’d say it should be turned around on him.

[–] FordBeeblebrox@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Every time I see one of his shit takes on here for a moment a think of the actor Matt Walsh and think “oh no the funny guy is a shitbag?!”

But no it’s always this other asshole, at least I hope

When discussing marriage with my girlfriend (now wife), she mentioned not wanting to change her name. I told her this wasn't acceptable - I expected her to change her name. But she repeated not wanting to change her last name. I told her she misunderstood, I didn't want her to change her last name, I wanted her to change her first name to "groupofcrows property", she can keep her last name. She did not accept this. (Yes this was a real conversation, yes we have been married for 7 years, no she did not change her name)
