/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.

One of my favorites, along with:
That final quote is from Worf during the series Picard ... maybe season 2?
Wow I did not realize how much I needed to hear that today
- Worf
Well done, very good
Worf could definitely use some encouragement
For anything that doesn't involve ramming speed or honour, yes
Kor had problems of class and birth within society, but he recognized people are people.
While not perfect, in that instance Kor showed amazing insight and wisdom by just rolling with it.
The pep talk that Ma'at gives to Mariner in Lower Decks is another shining example of Klingon awesome.
I think that something that should be kept in mind is that for a Klingon, what they do is combat but not necessarily physically. Say you're a Klingon architect, your foe is gravity and the laws of physics. As a Klingon doctor, your foe is disease and ultimately death itself. A Klingon chef fights bland palates and hunger and keeps their customers fighting fit.
There is an episode of ENT in which a Klingon lawyer explains that Klingon philosophy used to be like this but had shifted to valuing only literal combat over his lifetime.
Eating this spicy Klingon-Thai curry is an honorable battle; but the battle the next morning...that is a battle without honor.
That is a battle which cannot be won. Every Klingon butthole that has experienced Klingon-Thai curry has earned its place in StoVoKor!
