/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.

Garak getting flashbacks about Empok Nor:
Always loved that easy way to identify DS9/Terok Nor and Empok Nor
If not for "Dutch angles," how else would you know that you're in a villainous lair?
That slight tilt does seem to throw things out of balance ...
Well played.
Side note: Rodney Dangerfield in Natural Born Killers as the abusive parent/husband still sends chills down my spine.
Loved Dangerfield .... in my mind's eye, his character is like a marker in time for me now ... are we dating ourselves?
Well, now that you mention it...
FFS, if not for this community, I don't know what I'd do.
Fun fact: there is no "up" in space.
Fun fact 2: Trek writers consistently fail to understand this basic concept.
That's the joke.
And I think science fiction generally does it that way for the viewers' sake.
