/c/TenForward: 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.

I am back. (lemmy.blahaj.zone)
submitted 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) by jawa22@lemmy.blahaj.zone to c/tenforward@lemmy.world
 

I had a complete mental collapse, as well as some legal troubles that lead me to completely delete all of my Lemmy accounts. I was formerly jawa21, and decided to get an upgrade to jawa22. Like it or not, I am back for good and I am currently working on more edits to post here.

It's kind of funny. My original IRC handle was jawaslayer, because "Who would slaughter innocent Jawas?"

[–] AnarchistArtificer@slrpnk.net 11 points 1 day ago

Sad to hear you've had a rough time, glad to hear that you're back.

[–] negativenull@lemmy.world 31 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

Whoa! You're back! I'm so glad to see you here!!

You must be part Vorta

[–] jawa22@lemmy.blahaj.zone 18 points 2 days ago (2 children)

Am I Mr. Combs? The world may never know.

[–] DrainKikoLake@lemmy.ca 10 points 2 days ago

Please post a picture of your chin so that we may judge this matter.

[–] negativenull@lemmy.world 8 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Sounds like something Combs would say

[–] wise_pancake@lemmy.ca 4 points 2 days ago

He would also say “Tsunkatse!”

Are you a transporter clone, a replacement chief from the future, a parallel universe ensign, or a genesis device regenerated vulcan?

Welcome back regardless of your cloning techniques. We missed you.

[–] jawa22@lemmy.blahaj.zone 23 points 2 days ago

I am a genesis device regenerated Vulcan transporter clone from the future that was recently promoted to cheif. I hope that helps.

[–] limelight79@lemm.ee 10 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Your new account is one better.

"This jawa goes to 22. It's one more."

[–] The_Picard_Maneuver@lemmy.world 16 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Welcome back, and I hope things are on the up now. You were missed.

[–] jawa22@lemmy.blahaj.zone 12 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Thanks! I'll have you know that the weird spot you made in Kirk's armpit still haunts my dreams, btw.

[–] The_Picard_Maneuver@lemmy.world 14 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

Oh no, I'm trying to remember what I did...

(Edit - was it the bad edit from the Elon salute? Lol)

[–] jawa22@lemmy.blahaj.zone 9 points 2 days ago

Yes, yes it was.

[–] Bishma@discuss.tchncs.de 11 points 2 days ago

Alriiight!

I wanted to be clever and on theme (... something something Dax maybe?), but I decided to go with my first reaction.

[–] ummthatguy@lemmy.world 11 points 2 days ago

Missed you, friend.

[–] LovableSidekick@lemmy.world 11 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

Recently somebody pointed out to me that the Gorn's eyes are microphone grills, and now I will never forget it.

[–] OpenStars@piefed.social 4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I have no idea what this means, but I'm here for it regardless! :-P

[–] SatyrSack@feddit.org 5 points 1 day ago (1 children)

To me, they definitely appear more similar to a disco ball than a microphone, but I can see how someone might draw that comparison

[–] OpenStars@piefed.social 1 points 1 day ago

Ah that makes much more sense than what I (somehow) had in my head, which was that "Gowron eyes" are microphone grills. I was going to need to reevaluate EVERYTHING there for a minute... 🤪

[–] klemptor@startrek.website 11 points 2 days ago

I hope things are looking up for you.

[–] jawa22@lemmy.blahaj.zone 9 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Thanks! And, umm, I'm not sure how to put this but your captchas for sign-ups are broken :p

[–] ptz@dubvee.org 5 points 2 days ago (2 children)

On my instance?

The only issue I'm aware of is the hosted instance of Tesseract I run (for anyone to use) was down yesterday evening / last night because the hosting provider had a DC migration go terribly wrong. My main UI and API are hosted in a different DC and shouldn't have been affected.

Just curious b/c if there's a problem I want to fix it lol

Welcome back, hopefully things are much better for you

[–] jawa22@lemmy.blahaj.zone 9 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Not much better, but better. Thanks to some kind people here I was able to get help. It was a rough time, eating like a broke college student at 43.

[–] MelodiousFunk@slrpnk.net 9 points 2 days ago

One can only be excited for peanut butter jelly time for so long. Glad you're back.

[–] jawa22@lemmy.blahaj.zone 12 points 2 days ago (1 children)

So close. You could have linked this:

[–] verity_kindle@sh.itjust.works 4 points 2 days ago

Nah, I never leap about without my rubber boots and tutu. No matter how glad I to see someone.

[–] floo@retrolemmy.com 6 points 2 days ago

Sorry to hear about what happened. Glad to hear you’re doing better! Welcome back.
