/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.

Uh... He wasn't against allowing anyone to believe in a god of gods. He only took issue with people worshipping "The Picard" and Ardra scamming.
He gave a speech about how they had moved past religion and he wasn't going to allow them to go back to superstition
I looked it up.
Man was such an atheist I'm mildly surprised he isn't more of a terminally online conservative. He's too pro-choice, though, so I think we're safe.
He knew Ardra was a phony, but still passed up the opportunity.
That takes some restraint and willpower, as opposed to Will-power, cause we all know Riker would.
It doesn't take any willpower when you're this man-
While I don't doubt he (or Picard) could have bagged Cindy Crawford, you can tell they weren't in the same room based on lighting and shadows.
Why would you expect them to be in the same room for the cover of some TV Guide in the first place?
As much as Renee O'Connor was amazing as Gabrielle, I wouldn't mind Jeri in that role 👀...
Huh. Didn't know that was a thing. Way more effort than I thought was ever put into a cover of a TV magazine.
Let's be real. Picard probably worships the koala.
He's met it enough times at this point that it's not belief. You don't believe in a fact.
Have you been in a coma and missed the birth and growth of this terrible thing called social media?
You mean that place where you don't believe in facts?
Nah. There is a whole omnipotent being with a massive crush on him and Picard treats him like a nuisance he deals with at regular intervals. First thing he did when Q got briefly depowered was put him in the brig.
Picard knows the Koala is real but he has zero respect for cosmic marsupials in general.
You don't?
Wait, I thought we all did. Which is why I suggested a superior being such as JLP also does.
Fair enough. May your day be blessed by the holy breath of eucalyptus.
And may you always feel his weird double thumbed hands guiding you in your daily mod report decisions. Channel your inner Dukat.
