/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.

Don't worry, plenty of skin protectant to go around:

You’d think count Bakula would be more mindful of the sun

I always wonder how the guy playing Travis felt about the writers creating an alien that stereotypes all human beings as white.

I mean, they could have at least explored how the character Travis felt about it. Real missed opportunity.

Travis: "Man, fuck that guy."

Travis: man these honkies are finally getting a taste of their own medicine

I think to the Andorians, all human skin looks more or less pink because our blood is red. To us, all Andorian skin looks blue, but they probably see distinctions between the shades of blue that are significant to them. So it's just a matter of perspective. That's how I interpret it, anyway.

You can spot the tourists at the beach based on pinkness levels. I feel so sorry for them, but still, haven't they been swimming before?! I guess they're not prepared for the extra light reflecting off the Gulf and the white sand. Not a fan myself, too intense out there.
