/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.

@jawa21@startrek.website for realizing that the line used to be "want to be added to the sidebar?" and capitalized on it. Congratulations and welcome to the sidebar. Stamets is both ashamed and proud.

MODERATORS
Paul Stamets is a real life mycologist.
And not just any old mycologist, but one who's very well known in the psychedelic community.
First time I saw Discovery, saw they had Stamets and a "spore-drive" which utilises a discrete subspace domain, I was hyped. A mushroom with "roots" literally everywhere, and that humans can, at least to some degree, connect to this network? Feels rather familiar to most people who've tried recreational shrooms, I'm sure.
Also, on a sidenote, Ultima Thule is mentioned in Star Trek: Enterprise as a planet I think in the same episode that they use Iittala's Ultima Thule glass-collections as "alien" glassware. (Ultima Thule is an old Latin concept for like a mythical land far North, modern interpretations have included Orkney, Shetland, Northern Scotland, the island of Saaremaa.)
I happened to be drinking from an Ultima Thule collection glass when watching the show. So when this scene came on, I looked roughly like Dicaprio in the beer pointing meme. Only with an Ultima Thule glass, ofc.
Tripping across the universe! That’s awesome.
