/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.

That doesn't look like Bell.

This tipped me off to an idea. Thanks.

You mean we could have seen this meme a dozen times already?

He was the same age as the average Lemmy user when he died.

[–] ummthatguy@lemmy.world 21 points 2 months ago

Thanks for the reminder, as I'm just a couple years older than Bell. I'd start a riot, but I don't think I have the energy.

After it hit zero

Long live Gabriel Bell!

[–] FuryMaker@lemmy.world 10 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I don't doubt there are some hardcore trekkies who named their kid after Bell back in 87.

There's going to be thousands of James T Kirk's named on 22nd March 2233.

This episode aired in 95, though.

[–] bradorsomething@ttrpg.network 11 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Hard core trekkies would time travel to do it.

I’m sure that in 2371, dilithium is available in every corner drugstore, but in 2024, it’s a little hard to come by!

[–] FuryMaker@lemmy.world 6 points 2 months ago

Oh yeah :|

I'm a dumbarse.

Why is it smiling? What does it know?
