/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.

But in all seriousness, have any of you guys heard from him?

Hopefully he’s just busy making friends in a new country and getting his family across the pond safely. πŸ––

I think he became English, and in doing so ascended to a higher plane of sanity then the rest of us. So long, and thanks for all the memes.

ascended to a higher plane of sanity

TERF island, bad example.

[–] Ziglin@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I personally believe that the terfs in the UK are just the way they are because of tea withdrawal or something. Unfortunately all Brits I've contacted as part of proving this hypothesis have been uncooperative, due to not wanting to give up their tea for more than 48h.

[–] melpomenesclevage@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

you haven't ever actually met anyone from TERF island; tea isn't that much bigger there than in america.

[–] Ziglin@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

You'd be surprised. I do indeed know people from there but you are right it's alcohol that most of them are dependent on not tea. (Though that sample does also drink a lot of tea)

[–] ThrowawayPermanente@sh.itjust.works 0 points 5 days ago (1 children)

How many countries in the world meet your standards of sanity?

very different question, but the UK isn't necessarily more sane than the americans, just less dangerous.

[–] Kazumara@discuss.tchncs.de 5 points 6 days ago

Ah it's not just me then. I was getting worried he blocked me after our discussion regarding Sheinbaum's civil suit against Google

[–] ubergeek@lemmy.today 2 points 6 days ago

I just blocked them.

[–] j4k3@lemmy.world 108 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Last time I asked about the inability to eat solid food was a couple of months ago if memory serves. He said he was doing well after the move to the UK, but the food situation had not changed. Also he was in desperate need of finding a job and was really struggling on that front.

I hope all is okay.

[–] FoxyFerengi@lemm.ee 59 points 1 week ago (2 children)

The last thing I remember seeing from him was a fight with another user, and a slew of deleted comments talking about suicide. I really hope he's okay

[–] skulblaka@sh.itjust.works 29 points 1 week ago (1 children)

They were hanging around here and posting more in the few weeks following that. I was keeping an eye open for them after seeing that whole... debacle.

Whatever else might have happened I'm pretty confident that that argument, at least, isn't of concern anymore. I hope.

Damn, hope they're OK!

[–] dohpaz42@lemmy.world 70 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (3 children)

I’m going to err on the side of optimism and believe he’s just been busy with his new job and moving his wife and kid(s) across the pond.

Edit: grammar

[–] cm0002@lemmy.world 34 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Same hopefully either that or he just needed to do a smart phone detox or something

[–] dohpaz42@lemmy.world 27 points 1 week ago

Ooooooor, he got tired of the BS job offers and decided to go all Squid’s 11 and rob the Crown Jewels?

Coming Soon to a Theater Near you!

Hoping all is well for him and his family. A major move like that in fairly short time is a lot to handle. I read a post not too long ago that his daughter has more friends and socialization going on in the brief time there than when in the US.

Be well Squid!

Moving countries to provide a better life for your progeny will do that.

I was just thinking about him yesterday. Seems like dude has a lot on his plate right now. I'm sure lemmy isn't near the top of his priorities.

[–] FenrirIII@lemmy.world 23 points 1 week ago

Moving countries, finding a job, family stuff. Sure his plate is full

Yeah, I was wondering about him, too. I think it's wild the Lemmy is tight knit enough for stuff like worrying about specific users. Reminds me of the days when forums were the dominant social media of the internet.

[–] finitebanjo@lemmy.world 2 points 6 days ago

When I'm gone people won't notice, they'll just wonder why nobody is arguing with the lying tankies anymore.

[–] PyroNeurosis@lemmy.blahaj.zone 26 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Naw. Sent a DM a couple days back to check in, but have heard nothing. Here's hoping they're just busy with the real world.
