/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.

And unceremoniously abandoned them without a second thought.

She went out for a synth-ale and never came back.

Bad parenting is a Star Trek tradition. Remember Worf's son? Because Worf didn't.

Imagine if the Federation put as many agents into Child Protective Services as they do Temporal Investigations.

I can't help but think this photo of Janeway was taken before she had her coffee. She looks half asleep!

[–] ummthatguy@lemmy.world 9 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (1 children)

Most likely. I just happened to notice an odd gnarl in her face, then grabbed the shot. Similar happened for me with Pulaski last year.

Edit: took a bit of searching, but found it.

Diana Muldaur was an expressive actor, for sure. I never thought about it before, but so is Kate Mulgrew!

Also their last names are similar…

Man, imagine Pulaski as the captain of Voyager. She'd probably go hunting with the Hirogen in order to respect their culture.

I know people don't love Pulaski but she's become one of my favorite characters.

She doesn't take anyone's shit, she marches the beat of her own drum, and she will do whatever it takes to do what she sees as right.

Her biggest flaw is it takes her a long time to see Data as a sentient being worthy of respect and not a fancy toaster capable of parlor tricks.

She's the McCoy of TNG. I can prove it:

"Damnit Picard, that man is dead! Riker snu snurized him!"

Racks phaser

"Cargo bay's haunted."

You're just trying to keep me away from your cider stash, aren't you?

[–] setsneedtofeed@lemmy.world 13 points 2 months ago (1 children)

A little from quadrant A, a little from quadrant D.

Using this phrase for a future post.

By all means, take advantage. I intend to eventually find and use odd shots of others.

That third one became a tradition

I mean, can ya blame her?

Delete the wife indeed.

Remember, that wasn’t the first time.
