/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.
Use spoiler tags in comments, and NSFW checkbox for posts.
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.

She needs a booster seat.
She needs some of those hospital booties because i worry that she’s gonna pick up some weird alien foot fungus from the starship floor.
I think this is one of the only shots where she’s actually wearing shoes.
Modern starship floors are glossy as fuck, they're clearly getting auto-scrubbed and polished by some future tech. You could eat off 'em.
they're clearly getting auto-scrubbed
They made Wesley lick them clean after every shift.
... after every shi~~f~~t.
It’s not even virtue signaling, they’re using these show to do an awful lot of kink signaling.
I’ll never yuck someone’s yum.
Especially a 400 year old Lanthanite. She definitely knows what she likes by that age.
I think she always wears the boots when she's in uniform.
I think you’re right now that you mention it. Guess starfleet uniform regs are strict in the future too.
But Riker is straight.
Straight up screwing everything beautiful and willing!
Women, non-binary, non-gendered, men, it's all the same to a sex god.
Does Ryker boink any non-female aliens 🤔 so far he's been reading as pretty compulsory hetero, I'm only in season 2
He falls in love with a member of a single gender species in season 5. That's the only one I can think of off the top of my head.
Nice! Still counts. Ryker's a pan! Unless he's more doing like a Johnny Bravo thing
Riker the Himbo.... That actually kinda works
He totally is! Dude's here to tame that space-strange and fight his dad. And he already got beat up by his dad.
I wonder if William and Thomas joined forces if they could beat the old man at anbo-jyustu.
And Frakes advocated for a male to play the love interest role.
