/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.

What's with the x-wing watermark? Trek / Wars crossover?

[–] The_Picard_Maneuver@lemmy.world 2 points 22 hours ago

I've seen this one before. I think the original creator of this must make memes for both.

Jake is the only real journalist I've seen in the Trek universe. The only other guy who comes close was the time Max Headroom showed up pretending to be a historian from the future but was actually a grifter from the past.

[–] ripcord@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

Oh man, I forgot that Molloch / tbe guy from Shaky Ground was in an episode, and then wondered if there really was some Max Headroom cameo I missed, like when they brought in Einstein and Stephen Hawking.

[–] Nima@leminal.space 28 points 1 day ago

i like jake 😊

[–] BillyClark@piefed.social 28 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I'm pretty sure that Jake substantially improved the universe that one time by killing himself.

[–] Thebeardedsinglemalt@lemmy.world 15 points 1 day ago (1 children)

It depends. Improved it by altering the timeline so his dad didn't disappear in the past?

Didn't they kind of imply the Dominion War didn't happen in that timeline? Jadzia Dax was still alive in that future, as well as the original Defiant and not the renamed Sao Paulo

Benjamin Sisko is easily worth a war or two.

[–] arrow74@lemmy.zip 5 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I'd consider 3 wars and 500 years of simulated imprisonment for O'Brien.

[–] BillyClark@piefed.social 1 points 1 day ago

Since it's O'Brien, honestly, I'm surprised you went that low.

[–] thisbenzingring@lemmy.today 27 points 1 day ago (3 children)

What would happen if Jake and Alexander Son of Worf were in the same room? Implosion?

[–] jaybone@lemmy.zip 22 points 1 day ago (4 children)

Jake is probably the least annoying of all Star Trek children. Alexander being most annoying of course. Naomi wasn’t too bad usually.

[–] ElderWendigo@sh.itjust.works 7 points 1 day ago

At least all of Alexander's annoying qualities made for a believable child character, unlike a certain other magical child genius on that ship. You try to not be an insufferable brat under those parental conditions. I wish we could have seen episode of fully adult versions of Nog, Jake, and Alexander working through some emotional baggage while stuck in a cave awaiting rescue. Those kids would have some hot and spicy takes about their various parental figures and mentors.

[–] ripcord@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

What about when Earring Girl and the lady that stabbed Q did freaky friday. And the other two.

[–] jaybone@lemmy.zip 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I think I missed that episode…

[–] ripcord@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

It happened

[–] SatyrSack@quokk.au 3 points 1 day ago

Alexander being most annoying of course.

[–] thisbenzingring@lemmy.today 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)
[–] samus12345@sh.itjust.works 6 points 1 day ago (1 children)

The Picard writers sure did.

[–] cybervseas@lemmy.world 11 points 1 day ago

Did they never have a scene together? 🥺

[–] mx_smith@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago (2 children)

How about an episode where Jake, Alexander and Yoshi all become friends.

[–] thisbenzingring@lemmy.today 4 points 1 day ago

Kobayashi Maru 2: Trektastic Boogaloo

[–] MadMadBunny@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

What did you just imply about Yoshi?!?

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

Three sons of important Star Trek characters could get together to talk about their fathers.

[–] FrChazzz@lemmus.org 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

They have the Star Trek equivalent of a podcast. Now, what's the title?

[–] SeductiveTortoise@piefed.social 4 points 1 day ago (1 children)
[–] MadMadBunny@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I don’t like where this is heading…

[–] FrChazzz@lemmus.org 2 points 1 day ago

Sounds like a podcast featuring a Weyoun, ACA Brunt, and Shran. I'd check that out.

[–] FrChazzz@lemmus.org 8 points 1 day ago

I actually like Jake. That being said, I always find it amusing when I read the production notes section of any episode of DS9 on Memory Alpha and I come across "Cirroc Lofton does not appear in this episode." Part of me wants to believe that Jake or his agent went through every episode to look for the ones he/his client was not in.

[–] JackTea@piefed.world 3 points 1 day ago

I don't appreciate this joke.

NVM. Just got it.

[–] hzl@piefed.blahaj.zone 11 points 1 day ago

Leave Jake alone you weirdo creeps!

[–] LovableSidekick@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

Why so cruel?
