/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.

That last movie 😭

puts on tinfoil hat For the entirety of his journeys, Spock uses his telepathic powers off camera to manipulate his starship captains as useful idiots that can take the fall for any error while he executes his personal agendum

puts on a second, larger tin foil hat All of the Vulcans are actually using their telepathy to puppeteer humankind to remotely fulfill their own agendum

puts on a third, even larger tinfoil hat The Talosians are actually using their telepathy to puppeteer Vulcankind into puppeteering humankind to remotely fulfill their agendum

puts on a fourth, solar-system scale tin-foil hat The Taelons from Earth: Final Conflict are actually using their skrill to puppeteer Talosiankind into puppeteering Vulcankind into puppeteering humankind to remotely fulfill their agendum, as of 3 years ago when they came. Among this pupeteering chaos, William Boone is searching for the truth... until he gets killed off, upon which weird half-human alien baby who instantly grows into an adult, who I think then searches for the truth? I don't know much after that - masochism can only get you so far in that series before you turn it off.

I can tell you copy and pasted part of my comment because I am possibly the biggest stickler in the world for grammatically-correct-but-still-parsable unusual singular and plural forms of nouns in my formal-ish writing, in this case “agendum”.

All mind controlling/altering magic is much less ethical than even Necromancy

[–] daikiki@lemmy.world 20 points 6 days ago

I mean no, but that's probably because Spock mind melted it out of my brain too

Third season. Enterprise had a gas leak.

[–] ummthatguy@lemmy.world 15 points 6 days ago

Between the shootout in the "OK Corral" setting, Kirk's body taken over by a woman, and floating Abraham Lincoln... well, you could be onto something.

Just in case anyone hasn't seen it/doesn't get this, it's a Community reference.

Feel like Enterprise had a gas leak the whole time, but I just got to the third* season, so I guess I'll see. I don't understand how it could possibly get any more unhinged.

Here, let me just let me quickly perform the equivalent of mental rape to help you forget about that robot pussy

[–] ummthatguy@lemmy.world 9 points 5 days ago

A point that was made on Troi multiple times and once more on T'Pol. Berman's definitely going to the special hell.

I don't want my pain taken away, I need my pain!

Dalinar, be reasonable
