/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. Hating someone off of their race, culture, creed, sexuality, or identity is not remotely acceptable. Mistakes can happen but do your best to respect others.
~ 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' and fuck over our artist friends.
Fun will now commence.

There was literally an entire goddamn episode about the difference between Data and a piece of equipment you gawping jackass.
In the same vein.
I don't like it when people call Service Dogs "medical equipment."
It's a living, breathing, thinking being. It is not "equipment."
Bare minimum, it is medical personnel.
I'd assume that the main reason they're referred to as "medical equipment" is for insurance reasons. They fall under that broad category of patient care, so that's where they are grouped.
If that's true, you have capitalism to thank for that specification.
(Looks like you do, but I never get to use that meme 😁)
You're probably a hundred percent correct, based on my experiences with medical insurance.
