/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.

You need the “I’m attracted to my car” episode

[–] homes@piefed.world 6 points 11 hours ago* (last edited 11 hours ago) (1 children)

That vaguely covers about 1/9 or 1/8 of Star Trek episodes.

And that’s a lot

[–] panda_abyss@lemmy.ca 5 points 11 hours ago (2 children)

How about “I’m unwittingly into bdsm and don’t understand these feelings”

[–] homes@piefed.world 5 points 11 hours ago* (last edited 11 hours ago)

Off the top of my head, maybe four or five episodes. Not a lot, but it’s definitely there. Star Trek writers were very good with visual and literary metaphor.

See: Garak and Bashir

I think Farscape doesn’t apply due to the “unwittingly” part

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 1 points 39 minutes ago

i was thinking of crichton and harvey, not scorpy, but i'm interested in hearing your thesis

[–] homes@piefed.world 6 points 11 hours ago

It’s a Christmas miracle! You actually made me laugh at those episodes!

[–] lemmy_acct_id_8647@lemmy.world 14 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

I’m finishing my chronological rewatch I’ve been doing this year this week!

[–] negativenull@piefed.world 12 points 11 hours ago (2 children)

That's a lot of Trek in one year!!!

It’s been a long road…getting from there to here. It’s been a longtime, but my time is finally near.

I stuck through all of TAS, even added the Orville. And I even watched that Kelvin stuff and the kiddie Scouts…oh my.

Getting from there to here

[–] gedaliyah@lemmy.world 7 points 9 hours ago

TOS: "Mr. Spock, it seems that this species doesn't understand free will."

TNG: "Are you saying we never left the Holodeck?"

DS9: "Captain Sisko, it looks like the interference from the doohickey and the sigma waves caused another time paradox... Here we go again!"

VOY: "This is a version of the continuum that your kind can understand."

SNW: "We have to abide by their legal proceedings."

I have only a few days before they get removed from Netflix and I am furious.

I'm only at season 6 of TNG.. I had planned for years of entertainment and now I don't know where to continue watching

[–] librekitty@lemmy.today 3 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

a good chunk of star trek can be found on paramount+

[–] aeronmelon@lemmy.world 5 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

Wait, are the classic series NOT on Paramount’s own service?

[–] data1701d@startrek.website 2 points 6 hours ago

At least in the US, they’re all on there.

But then again, people might not want to support Paramount because of their collaboration with Gul Donal. Currently, my parents pay for it, so I used it, but they seem open to the idea of collecting physical media releases and may eventually jump ship because we mostly just watch Trek on it.

Of course, I think the best way to do physical media is to buy used through local businesses rather than directly pay some crappy executives. Last I checked, I think I’ve seen up to LD season 4 on shelves.

I have that button 😊

I hit it a lot
