/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. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.
Fun will now commence.

watching Marc Alaimo talk about Kira/Visitor in the DS9 doc What We Left Behind made my skin crawl. he came off like 100% of the creep Dukat was and that he wasn't acting. And hearing Visitor talk about him also sounded like she was trying very hard to be nice and let on that Alaimo was/is a total creep.
i don't know the real story, but that's sure the vibe i got.
Well, that's always disappointing. Didn't Terry Farrell say that there was quite a bit of misogyny, too? Particularly from producers.I wonder how much is a toxic environment from there, how much is it normal behaviour at the time. Glad we've progressed. That's the point of trek.
this is a real rabbit hole to go down, but, long story short, Rick Berman and Brannon Braga were horrible to all of the women in the shows the produced, and Berman's treatment, in particular, is why Farrell left DS9. He was extremely horrible to her.
Aw man, Braga too? I thought it was just Berman.
