/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.

He didn't call her Annika because, unlike Shaw, he treated her with the respect she was due.

Really, it's no different from deadnaming a trans person, and they shouldn't be calling people anything other than the name they wish to be known by in the supposedly more enlightened 24th century.

After all, we have an early TNG episode where Data explains that whole concept to Pulaski. "One is my name, the other is not."

People call Seven by other name? I definitely didn't remember that. It's been 8-10 years since I last watched Voyager.

Only her aunt when they skype through pathfinder and janeway shortly after they found the nightinggale

What else do you expect from a dipshit from Chicago?

[–] limelight79@lemm.ee 7 points 7 months ago (1 children)

But he recommended her for promotion. He was one of the most in-depth short-lived characters ST has ever created.

[–] samus12345@lemmy.world 5 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Yeah, I ended up liking him in the end.

[–] VindictiveJudge@lemmy.world 3 points 7 months ago (1 children)

They could bring him back. Star Trek: Revenants - Shaw wakes up on the black mountain and finds Jadzia. They fight the apparitions of their fathers, meet the smiling koala, and come back to kick ass.

I was thinking more along the lines of an Emergency Command Hologram for Seven aboard the Enterprise G, but since that got thrown out the window, your idea works nicely.

[–] MaggiWuerze@feddit.de 2 points 7 months ago (1 children)

I don't think I've watched enough of Picard to have seen that

[–] ummthatguy@lemmy.world 2 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Worth it. Even if [especially if] you haven't seen any of the Picard series. Read a synopsis of the prior seasons and jump straight into 3.

[–] MaggiWuerze@feddit.de 2 points 7 months ago

I think that's the second time you tell me that :D Maybe I'll give it a chance this weekend

[–] CptEnder@lemmy.world 6 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

I feel like Janeway called her Annika a few times

[–] possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip 7 points 7 months ago

How illogical

[–] EndOfLine@lemm.ee 7 points 7 months ago (3 children)

Not sure if this better direcribes introverts or just men in general.

[–] WarmSoda@lemm.ee 7 points 7 months ago

It's a gag from Parks and Rec, said by The man Ron Swanson.

[–] klemptor@startrek.website 6 points 7 months ago

Introverts. I'm a lady and I'm in this pic.
