/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.

That's one aspect in which The Orville was certainly more realistic than Star Trek. Their security officer was using their holodeck to fulfill his smutty gay sex fantasies.

Haven't seen Lower Decks yet, I'm guessing?

The pilot episode has Mariner load an all nude male Olympic gymnastic facility lol

She's also punished, at one point, by having to clean the holodeck "bio filters."

🎶 Boogers and Cum! 🎶

Also VOY has Tuvok using the holodeck for ponfarr.

[–] Stamets 12 points 10 months ago (1 children)

True but at least there was a medical reasoning behind that one and not just "abs.... yummy...."

Also in DS9 IIRC it's implied Quark's holosuites are full of smut

Not Tuvok, a Vulcan officer from Engineering. And it didn't exactly solve his problem.

100% Tuvok. He complains to Tom Paris about his hologram wife T'Pel's ears being too short.

You can see her referenced here.

Huh. I might have skipped that episode.

"and holodeck waste removal"

"Urgh is it really mostly #$&!?"

"Oh yeah, it's all #$&!..."

[–] [email protected] 18 points 10 months ago

This is a recurring theme in DS9. Quark is always offering new programs like "pleasure mazes" with a "surprise" at the center. Nog even has his own program with a "pleasure goddess".

Red Dwarf, too 😉
