/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.

In TNG Picard was constantly rocking the deep V on his off time too

You know what they say about men with long treasure trails….

He about to consummate something!

Kirk lacks the advantage of Pike's peak, so he's gotta work with what he's got.

Rickman was such a damn treasure.

Lol, the meta of his actual great acting on screen and stage, playing a character that was himself trapped as a one hit wonder character actor, and was actually a great and memorable acting performance as that character is awesome.

While the sexy answer is more desirable, the real answer is much more mundane. The thermostat on the bridge always ran cold during Pike's captaincy. Pike is just chilly at work. Once Scotty joins the crew, Engineering finally got around to fixing it, and Kirk could dress lighter.

I mean, weren't "slut whore reasons" the impetus behind most of his best and/or most entertaining decisions? 🤷

It’s why Gene created the series!

It came to him in a wet dream

To boldly come where no man has come before.

Gets it? A Orion venereal disease?

“You gave Nurse Chapel the Andorian Clap again, Jim.”

Not to diminish the humor, but if you look closely Kirk does have black on underneath the tunic. It’s like he’s wearing a V-neck vs Pike’s crew neck.

Kirk understood the assignment

No chest hair. Not slutty enough for that cut.
