/c/TenForward: 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.
Use spoiler tags in comments, and NSFW checkbox for posts.
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.

who knows.
IMO I believe when you die your brain is flooded with the last of everything your body has to give. an evolutionary trait to survive as long as possible.
and this last "flash" is what we consider the "afterlife". probably lasts all of 10 seconds IRL but we know dreams like that can last lifetimes.
all I can do is hope I'm right. being an atheist, the alternative is pretty bleak.
In my view, feom your perepective, the koment you lose consciousness, you get recycled into some other shitbeing instantly, and the ride never ends.
This is why it's important to be humane to all life, and make a good future.
It doesn't have to be. Sure, you spend some of sleep dreaming, but most of it is just being unconscious. A nice, restful, relaxing, eternal sleep, little different from how you spend most of your nights.
yea the worst has to be the initial stages of dying really, depending on how you die ofc.
"I don't mind dying, I just don't want to be there when it happens."
