/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.

Ghosts! Commie ghosts, what don't know they're dead! Trying to steal our rockets, so they can fly up, and turn the moon pink! ...And put a Lenin face on it.

Actual belly laughs here. Bravo. I give it a, very rare, -0/5.

It's too perfect, they prob used AI.

[–] Australis13@fedia.io 18 points 20 hours ago (2 children)

You get one dodgy episode and that's all anyone remembers...

[–] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 1 points 7 hours ago

certianly one of the strangest one centered around her.

[–] DarkCloud@lemmy.world 23 points 20 hours ago* (last edited 20 hours ago) (1 children)

People should also remember that time she disappeared....

....oh, she also choreographed The Labyrinth (yeah, the Jim Henson movie with David Bowie, that one).

[–] OpenStars@piefed.social 5 points 20 hours ago* (last edited 20 hours ago)

Damnit, I had just succeeded in forgetting it too!!! 😜

[–] Evil_Shrubbery@lemmy.zip 4 points 15 hours ago

Well it sure isn't Wesley, that would be embarrassing.

There was also an UK version.

[–] fakeman_pretendname@feddit.uk 1 points 15 hours ago (2 children)

I didn't know they'd made an American remake of it. Worth watching?

[–] PlexSheep@infosec.pub 2 points 5 hours ago

I liked it. It's not the pinnacle of entertainment but it was kind of cute and I had a good time with it.

[–] Evil_Shrubbery@lemmy.zip 2 points 12 hours ago* (last edited 12 hours ago) (1 children)

Hmm. Overall about as much as the og I would say.
It's sacrifices some logic here and there for the fluidity or character plots (literally what you would stereotypically expect from USA, the "just enjoy but don't think about it", tho it's a format of show where this isn't crucial) but if you get used to it then I think it offers some fun.

As a spoiler of what I mean, eg >!just for fun/a story they introduce a martial the ghosts can literally interact with as normal living people ... and that's just it, all of it, a one episode story ... it would change everything for the ghosts, after so much time not touching anything material they would immediately be all over it, hell, they could dust/plate keycaps with that shit & the ghosts could shitpost on Lemmy 24/7 ... but no, a deus-ex-machina device used as an irrelevant plot crutch that could work even better with several different explanations or small adjustments!<.
This isn't an isolated case, they are quite a few such examples/(a bit to centre) plot holes they don't or just barely explore – or like explain why they can't explore/use it no longer.
Well, it's just more of that in the USA version & in return you get a bit more variance (which isn't a good or bad thing, just a difference).

Iirc, it's more of a half-background show for me.

[–] hamFoilHat@lemmy.world 2 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

Ghosts spoilers:

If you are talking about the room they couldn't get into, I don't think it was the material so much as the nature of the room and what it did to the person who used to own the house. In other words I don't think taking out a bit of wall it would allow them to interact with it afterwards.

If you are talking about some other material then I didn't remember that.

[–] Evil_Shrubbery@lemmy.zip 2 points 4 hours ago

They can swing the doors.
Idk, it's either sus or not explained (or I forgot, but they def talked about the special material of it).

[–] AlexLost@lemmy.world 10 points 20 hours ago (1 children)

Uh, Ray Stanz has a special relationship with ghosts too.

[–] otter@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

Hey, it feels good. 🤷🏼‍♂️

You know you'd break those chains if she called you "boo".

[–] sundray@lemmus.org 5 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

Everyone finds ghost irresistible!

[–] otter@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 16 hours ago

When ghost is the horse cock, all submit.

[–] sfxrlz@lemmy.dbzer0.com 7 points 19 hours ago (1 children)

I just wanted to say I don’t get half of these because I only watched a few bits and pieces but I love every single one of them.

[–] TachyonTele@piefed.social 4 points 14 hours ago (1 children)
[–] sfxrlz@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 13 hours ago

I got that part What I didn’t get is the whole other part with context and stuff

[–] otter@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 17 hours ago

but

Hmm, I'm thinking "and" is more appropriate. 🔥🫠🥵👻

[–] DarkCloud@lemmy.world 3 points 20 hours ago (2 children)

Payback for all that succubuses and poltergeists have done to people.

[–] Evil_Shrubbery@lemmy.zip 3 points 15 hours ago* (last edited 12 hours ago)

... succ-u-buses?

Do you know where the nearest stop is?
l wanna ride the succ-bussy!

[–] otter@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 17 hours ago* (last edited 17 hours ago) (1 children)

succubi*

FFS, people. Doesn't anyone read anymore?! ~FUCK~

[–] Milk_Sheikh@lemmy.dbzer0.com 7 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

…what if we can do even better tho?

[–] otter@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

Furthermore, the succubi received impregnation by mortals, whereas the incubi did the seeding. I would also posit that "concubi" would be their shared order/genus, not a separate iteration, as the laying is inherent regardless of position.

[–] Milk_Sheikh@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

Oooooh I like the spoken sound of ‘concubi’ but strictly aren’t concubines more so a pseudo-partner/marriage than a smash-and-pass like the incubus and succubus?

[–] otter@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 8 hours ago

That's not how etymology works and you seem to be unfamiliar with the suc/incubus lore. "Smash & pass"? They're demons of lust & lechery that proliferate such — not NYE finger-poppers. 🤣
