/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.

These things are usually a string of discordant events that eventually get lumped together. A particular moment is often cited. The assassination of ~~Sir Francis Drake~~ Archduke Franz Ferdinand for WWI is the most well known. What do you think instigates the start?
Edit: My dumbass mixing up names
If everything continues like it does probably Ukraine or Israel? Depending on which escalates first, so probably the latter
I think you may be confusing the assassination for Vasco da Gama when he suddenly and unexpectedly died in India.
Or we could go full blown 'merica and say it didn't "start" until the sinking of the RMS Lusitania well after shit got going.
Everything that's happened until now
I really should give Airplane II another chance.
All those films ... the Airplane Series, Hot Shots, Naked Gun Series ... they should be required viewing for a Memeology Education Program
An additional program would be everything Star Trek
I fear for the younger generation, and how much pop-culture they'd have to catch up on in order to understand tier 4 memes.
...what? Did you mean Archduke Franz Ferdinand, or is there some sort of in-joke going on here that I'm missing?
Nah, just me mucking up my historical figures.
Now I wanna play Uncharted.
