/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.

"That gave you the idea to go with Charlie's idea?!"
"It seemed logical."
"I don't know, man. Maybe we should blow up the bar and see if doing it Mac's way is better..."
That would be certified badass for sure
Are all these comments of yours referencing something in particular?
Yeah, I'm trying to break us out of the meme loop!
(Or am I referencing the wrong episode?)
Oh, I see! Yeah, that is the correct episode.
Aaand now my subconscious believes Spock is a black woman. Thanks.
As long as you believe it for a dozen, a hundred times.
(This is only supposed to make as much sense as the flawless logic of black-woman Spock 🖖👂)
You don't see the gif flip between Spock and a black woman?
I am not sure what counts as "black", but for me, the last couple frames of the GIF are of T'Pring
Yes, that actress is black lol Not sure why you'd deny it
Probably because of her skin tone
Casting directors, among other Hollywood insiders, called Martel the Chameleon because her appearance and her proficiency with accents and dialects enabled her to portray characters of a wide range of races and ethnicities
I might have been bamboozeled by her talent. I'd say that's a good thing.
I'll bite, what black phenotypes is she showing?
Her skin colour is the same as the guy in the background, straight hair, pointy nose.
I understand through the history of the US, that people are considered black based on their heritage and that some people are mixed to the point where they become pale and etc, but this particular person in this particular frame doesn't seem as obviously black as Uhura to a non-black viewer.
I’m pretty sure she’s vulcan.
Touche
I don't give in to concern trolling.
You're just being stupid.
Not concern trolling, agreeing with the other guy that her race is ambiguous.
You mean T'Pring?
I mean T'shwing!
I see it. I was reaching desperately too far to make the joke about dozen and hundred, but apparently I failed.
No shaming yourself allowed here. You're good, friend.
Good point!
The LaForge system
Learn about her existence
Act like a fucking idiot
Forge a version of her in the holodeck
Obsess constantly
Regret
Get over it
Erase holodeck program
Skullgrid has won Lemmy. It's all downhill from here.
I want you to know that this is the best comment I've ever seen.
(Attempting to phrase this like Mac would. But sincerely, this is amazing.)
iasip is that good?
Good enough to watch a dozen or a hundred times? Affirmative
