/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 voice of Discord in My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic (2011–2019).

Holy shit how did I not put it together when I thought that voice sounded familiar?

[–] grue@lemmy.world 4 points 2 days ago

More to the point, how did you not put it together considering that Q and Discord are literally the same character in every other way, too?

That's why My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic is one of the few kids' shows that doesn't suck: it's like TNG for little girls.

They’re basically the same character.

Apparently they sped up his voice to make it sound higher.

His story of how he got the job is really charming.

Per the Brony documentary, DeLancie's granddaughters were fans of the show, and his wife verbally accepted the job for him before even telling him about it.

Hes a pretty prolific voice actor.

I met him once at the Star Trek Ireland group's talk. I have a photo of us with him holding the resin horga'hn that I bought at a little charity auction they held. Nice dude. Hates Trump.

Didn’t think I could like him more than I already did but here we are

He’s aged incredibly well. Not for a Q, I guess.

[–] teft@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago

Who’s to say how long it took him to get here. Q don’t live time linearly.

He’s aged incredibly well for a Q.

Happy birthday!

In a 2012 interview, he said that he recalled his original audition, after which Roddenberry approached him, touched him on the shoulder, and said, "You make my writing sound better than it is."

Anyone else think that was Alex Trebek?

[–] ummthatguy@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago

Hadn't considered, but now that you mention it...

May have to work that in, somehow.
