/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.

AKSHUALLY, LaForge doesn't view through the visor with his eyes, he has special implants that connect directly to his nervous system. It was these implants that allowed the Romulans to subvert him. Because Wesley does not have these implants, *nerd snort* this meme is factually incorrect and makes no sense

[–] model_tar_gz@lemmy.world 70 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Your mom is factually incorrect and makes no sense.

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 12 points 2 days ago

So's your face makes no sense!

No wait...

So's your face!

It feeds into those red dots on the sides of his head, right?

I don't think LaForge is religious

[–] aeronmelon@lemmy.world 14 points 3 days ago

But he does worship Dr. Brahms.

Thank you so much for randomly saying this. I'm not a native English speaker, but listening to an audio book where that expression is sometimes used. I never knew what the fuck temple meant in that context.

I actually thought it might be a euphemism for genitals, virginity, sacrifice at temple or something like that.

I finally understand, I am finally free.

Saw right through that beard too.

[–] IrateAnteater@sh.itjust.works 77 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Wait, does that imply the beard's fake, since it didn't see through other hair?

DS9 Season 3 Episode 9: Defiant

[–] brbposting@sh.itjust.works 23 points 3 days ago (1 children)
[–] Thorry84@feddit.nl 17 points 3 days ago (2 children)

Because instead of just growing your beard out for a couple of days and trim it to be like Will Rikers, you plaster on some fake sideburns and hope nobody notices. Perfect strategy, I don't know how that would ever not work perfectly.

[–] Lemming421@lemmy.world 12 points 3 days ago

To be fair, no one did notice… until he successfully stole the Defiant, at which point it didn’t matter any more.

[–] jrs100000@lemmy.world 6 points 2 days ago (1 children)

It could take a couple months to grow out a beard like that...but I thought they had a beam made hair grow or something.

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 4 points 2 days ago (1 children)

No. Way. Do you think Eddington had this hairline by choice?

Poor detective work, Javert.

[–] Maalus@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago (2 children)

Actschually yes. Gene Roddenberry said that people in the future don't care about baldness the way we do. They have the option, it's probably just so inconsequential that people rarely do it.

I love how Picard has a tattoo that says 'engage' down there.

[–] DarkCloud@lemmy.world 65 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) (1 children)

Now for the very dark inference we can make here: Geordi had his visor on this setting while he was hanging out with Wesley.

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 11 points 2 days ago (1 children)

And yet it still censors the naughty bits.

[–] CaptPretentious@lemmy.world 9 points 2 days ago

You have to tell the computer to disengage safety protocols.

[–] ChicoSuave@lemmy.world 14 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Ironically, his nuts have the tattoo for what he yells when someone rings his office door.

[–] Albbi@lemmy.ca 7 points 3 days ago

Just "come".

It’s too late; I’ve already seen everything.

Blazin’ Bev

[–] ilinamorato@lemmy.world 17 points 3 days ago (1 children)

What, you assume because there are only two series regulars on the show who are women and only his mom is a redhead that this is... Yeah, you know what, that checks out

[–] princessnorah@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 points 2 days ago (2 children)
[–] TheGrandNagus@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

I don't think that's Guinan

[–] ilinamorato@lemmy.world 6 points 2 days ago

Guinan is a recurring character, rather than a series regular.

[–] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 22 points 3 days ago (1 children)

The episode where they actually show what Geordie sees through his visor now reminds me of what the world looks like through the pineal gland's 3rd eye in From Beyond.

"Joke's on you; I'm into that shit" -- Roddenberry, probably.

[–] sundrei@lemmy.sdf.org 15 points 3 days ago

You're a man now, Wesley.

[–] AbsoluteChicagoDog@lemm.ee 2 points 2 days ago

The original without censorship is better

[–] Archer@lemmy.world 8 points 3 days ago

Picard saying Engage every time hits different now

[–] wabafee@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Does he remain erect all the time?

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

That's why they call it the "captain's log"

[–] Lemjukes@lemm.ee 5 points 3 days ago (10 children)
