/c/TenFoward: 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.

Wait-a-minute Wednesday: To draw attention towards a situation or decision which bares further scrutiny.
For example: the crew of the Defiant not stopping Captain Sisko from committing acts of terrorism in order to prevent other atrocities being carried out by the Maquis.
So let's dig up the decidedly bone-head commands made by any characters throughout the Continuum, aside from the tried and true Tuvixian methodology. Or do, just provided there's a fresh/skewed take to be had.
So, in Tapestry. Picard takes a shot to the chest and he is about to die because it permanently damaged his fake heart. Q intercepts him from dying and gives a morality tale about playing it safe, Picard still gets stabbed by the Nausicans, still gets shot in the chest...and wakes up laughing perfectly alive.
So the only reason Picard is alive is because Q snap-fixed his artificial heart?
I've always thought so. Q is quite fond of Picard. They have a strong one way bromance going. It's why Q won't leave him alone.
Of course, in Picard Season 2,
Major spoiler for Picard Season 2
Q's entire grand scheme is, while perhaps also to fuck up history for fun, primarily to set the entire timeline to one where Picard doesn't suicide against the Borg.So Q has canonically saved Picard's life twice. Possibly more, assuming that Q's "gift" to Picard of early knowledge of the Borg also resulted in saving Picard's life during other encounters.
Yeah I always envisioned Q as a bully and he keeps poking Picard because Q can always get a ride out of him. But in Tapestry Q saved Picard's life, while being a dick every step of the way.
Yeah. I mean, Q definitely is a bully. He has learned no healthy ways of interacting with anyone.
He's just a bully who also loves Picard.
That's probably why Sisko punched Q
Lol. I'm going to point this out to my friends during our next rewatch. That's amazing.
