/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.

The sad O'Brien in the back makes this

If your man doesn’t look at you like Garak looks at Bashir, leave his ass ☺️

Or the way he looks at root beer:

Yes, your partner should consider you to be vile and insidious.

But also cloy and bubbly.

I was prepared to hate this, but with this cast of characters, how could I resist!?

The relatively fixed setting and serialized storytelling allowed for much richer character development. Of note, the Ferengi, who were a shallow "capitalism run amok" species on TNG, become an in depth and semi-honorable group who would eventually be worthy of inclusion in the Federation.

The Garak/Bashir relationship has become one of favourite pairings in Star Trek. Beautiful combination.

Am I crazy? I struggled to read that font and had to figure out what it said through context clues.

[–] ummthatguy 6 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Thought I'd picked a relatively legible typeface, but then I may just be more used to seeing frilly fonts. Teach your kids cursive, if only to mess with them, considering its uselessness in modern living.

[–] Crackhappy 3 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Lol. It's probably just me. I do know cursive but that font is cursed in my eyes.

[–] flicker 2 points 7 months ago

I read it perfectly, but probably because of the spoofing-on-Jane-Austen jokes I enjoy.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago

I mostly got it from context too, but after I figured out what it said, I could read it

[–] [email protected] 3 points 7 months ago

Especially the lies.
