TenForward: Where Every Vulcan Knows Your Name
/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. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.
Fun will now commence.

Back atcha from a much less prevalent (on lemmy) sci-fi fandom.
Context
Context for the image requires spoilers from The Witch From Mercury, the latest entry in the long-running Gundam franchise.Also, nested spoilers work. Neat.
spoiler Actual spoiler The prologue ends with a 4-year old joyfully singing along to happy birthday with her father, while said father sacrifices himself to allow his wife and child to escape the politico-corporate slaughter of a research lab. This is reprised later in the show when a 17-year old sings happy birthday to a friend over the PA, not knowing that the friend was getting incinerated elsewhere because his usefulness as a clone pilot had ended. :::
Proselytizing
Any Trekkie who isn't all-in on the ANIME BAD bandwagon, I implore you to give Gundam a try. There are a variety of starting points (as with Trek) and I'll be more than happy to field any questions.I love Gundam, but not for the right reasons.
Terrible reason
Lumberjack Gundam Canada's fight against Desperado Gundam Mecixo.I know everything about it is wrong, but it's both awesome and hilarious. I'm so sorry.
