You spelled "Behemoth" wrong. It's clearly spelled "Medina Station"

Star Trek memes and shitposts
Come on'n get your jamaharon on! There are no real rules—just don't break the weather control network.
In the Star Trek timeline, all Mormons left Earth on a sleeper ship for uncharted space. Over the centuries they devolved into the Pakleds. /headcanon
Another one? They've already got the Battlestar Galactica!
Twice!
Related: I just spent 2 weeks doing a fanedit of STV. I will die on the hill that the plot is good if you can get around most of the silly humor of Shatner (which obviously I removed), as well as most of the weird shit between Scotty and Uhura.
At the core, it is a sweeping critique of religion and charlatanism. Larry Luckenbill as Sybok is one of the great performances in all of Trekdom.
*cough* magnet link?
I haven't figured out distribution yet but you can bet I'll be sharing with the community here (even if only for discussion).
Some of my favorite edits are actually in discussions between Kirk, Spock, and Bones. In one scene Bones has weird jokes that don't really fit the tone of Spock's exposition. It was a challenge to get around them, but I think I did it quite successfully, and it adds some needed gravitas to those portions.
Anyway, yes -- it'll be available somehow.
\°ahem*
That thing is in TOS? I really thought it was another Expanse meme.

I guess they meant STV is related because its plot involves religion.
The bottom frame of the meme is from STV, and the whole thing is based on STV's "what does god need with a starship?".
i should've realized that
I would love to see what the fan edit looks like. I (re)watched it just last week and the theatrical cut is... a mess, to put it gently. There's almost too much going on, with not enough focus on the elements that make the story tick. But there's lots to work with here that would make a very high-production-value 50 minute Trek episode.
Scotty and Uhura's flirting was cute, but it doesn't go anywhere so it's dead weight film-wise. But without it, the characters have even less to say in an already crowded story. It's just sad.
One moment that stuck out to me was the bar fight. Kirk just tosses a Catian stripper, over his head, into a literal "pool" table and she's rendered dead/unconscious floating face down in the water. Either she has bones like a baby bird or Kirk is on 'roids. I can't make sense of that edit unless there was a longer fight that got chopped down somehow. It makes zero sense.
Gotta go commit genocide to claim their planets
And then dress up as the natives and kill the next settlers that come through.
Someone told them that the Angel Moron put more prophecies on some gold-pressed latinum
Prolly cuz everyone on Earth got tired of their BS...like when they had to flee the US to Mexico. Hell, even one of Abe Lincolns campaign posters promised to eliminate the "twin relics of Barbarism" - slavery and polygamy.
Been playing X3TC again and I'm noticing how this ship looks a lot like the Argon Trading Stations (or rather the other way around). Now I wonder if this was the actual inspiration for 'em.
