/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.

Lura Thok has to be my favorite new member of Star Trek.

I bet those Kling'hadar war stories are gonna be insane.

I’m a big fan of the coach uniform. I like it better than anything we saw on Discovery or Picard, probably because it looks so similar to the TNG uniform.

Also, she's such a badass!

[–] negativenull@piefed.world 7 points 1 day ago

She's such a fun character

Hey I specifically posted a non spoiler-y image but if you want me to mark it as such I can.

[–] ummthatguy@lemmy.world 5 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I get ya, but rules and all.

We, as Trekkies, are a semantic bunch.

[–] teft@piefed.social 5 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

In the future I will mark all new episode memes. For some reason I thought the rule was about being a spoiler, not just being an image from the episode.

[–] ummthatguy@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

It's content from a new episode, innocuous though it may be.

I'm not bothered by it, personally, just the guy asked to help out.

[–] teft@piefed.social 4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

No worries. It's no thing at all to mark it as such. I was just confused on the rule is all.

[–] negativenull@piefed.world 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

It's definitely a grey area kind of rule, and this could go either way. It's technically a spoiler (minor one), but doesn't really reveal any story plots. I don't really mind either way.

Fun "Spoiler alert" story:
I worked as a projectionist at a theater when Titanic came out. There was a snarky high school kid who was taking tickets and would tell people: "Spoiler alert: the boat sinks"

Most people laughed, but one lady had to formally complain. Apparently she didn't know much about the Titanic.

hold up, weren't the jemhadar sexless?

As someone else said, they were "produced" and all male, so it was generally assumed they were asexual and incapable of reproduction.

Turns out that was just an assumption and apparently the Founders gave them balls. Or maybe Odo convinced them to. Nobody knows, but there she is.

[–] teft@piefed.social 4 points 1 day ago

Not sexless. All male.

Thok's mother was klingon and her father was jem'hadar.

A ~~century~~ millennium during which to mess around with genetics or otherwise.

[–] A_Union_of_Kobolds@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Big fan, she's a lot of fun.

Jay'Den is a treat so far too.

[–] teft@piefed.social 4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I really like Jay'den too.

Im a (not very good) Buddhist and ive been learning Klingon for the past few months, it's kind of a funny coincidence that a pacifist Klingon shows up now of all times XD ive appreciated it. Hopefully he gets more good moments throughout the show, his attempt at humor was adorable
