/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.

I think we should actually do this. Let's just arrange a time once a week or once a month for a Great Shout. Just the one time where it's socially acceptable to walk outside and shout at the sky at the top of your lungs. The only rule is you can't shout that you're being attacked or similar. (Don't want to provide cover for someone stabbing someone or something.)
I think something like that could do a lot of good for society. Not only would it help us blow off some steam, but it would help social cohesion. If you and your neighbors all walk out together and shout at the same time, the most obvious thing to do afterwards is to talk with each other about what you're screaming about. You create an environment for communication and sharing of concerns that often may be left to simmer. It could be a huge boon for healthy social engagement.
