/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.

This inspired a meme idea, but it'd be a parody of a 90s country music song. Dunno if anyone would even get it let alone appreciate it 😆

Do it anyway. I appreciate all the memes, whether I get them or not.

Lol, thanks.

When I get some time, I may make half of it and gauge it from there. It may be able to stand on its own without knowing the song, or it may not.

For reference, the song is "Except for Monday" by Lorrie Morgan

Pretty good song. Production is pretty "Nashville", but the machine still valued a clever turn of phrase in those days, which weren't too far removed from what Steve Earle called Nashville's "Great Credibility Scare of the 1980s."

Yeah, it's from '91 so several years before the genre devolved into the "big trucks, cold beer, guns, god, and panderin' " country we know today.

I can tell you right now I almost certainly wouldn't get it.

Those are Seymouria in that image for Friday... Our earliest tetrapod ancestors.

...very overbearing mothers, and they hate a kid named Bart.

But you've gotta admit, they steam a good ham!
