/c/TenForward: 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.

Part of me hates that this is happening.

The rest of me is all, “It’s still 2025!! If we have the Bell Riots now we’re still on-pace for a Star Trek future!!”

I hope we survive WW3 and the eugenics war.

[–] aeronmelon@lemmy.world 20 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Me too, I hope my child survives the seemingly inevitable wars that are looming within his lifetime.

But more importantly, I think Humanity will survive. This is a test, one that evolution makes impossible to avoid. If we survive this trial by fire, we will scatter and thrive amongst the stars and prepare for the next test.

Am I being too dreamy? It’s all Star Trek’s fault. :)

Or we will scatter amongst the earth and spend the next several centuries trying not to die of radiation poisoning.

Don't forget Ireland's reunification.

[–] negativenull@lemmy.world 17 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago) (1 children)

Riots in N. Ireland right now (though it's anti-immigration riots, so probably won't lead to unification):

One thing always leads to another.

As a descendant of the Irish, I completely believe that a totally unrelated argument could snowball into Irish Reunification.

Guinness sucks! (not really but you know...)

(Yes, I know Willie is Scottish.)

Oh we are getting a Star Trek Future—the mirror universe one.

[–] TachyonTele@piefed.social 9 points 3 weeks ago

It'll end up being a dumb cracked mirror universe at this rate.

[–] AngryCommieKender@lemmy.world 7 points 3 weeks ago

Not even. We're getting the black mirror Trek timeline.

[–] then_three_more@lemmy.world 3 points 3 weeks ago

Shitty Picard season 2 we want to do mirror universe but not.

[–] Rhaedas@fedia.io 7 points 3 weeks ago

I'd rather not given what comes between. Can we instead get the future of the civilization in Strange New World's pilot episode? They got the advantage of learning from the mistakes Earth made before they did the same and leapfrogged into the better stuff.

[–] grue@lemmy.world 7 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

Go on memory-alpha and look up what's scheduled to happen in 2026.

[–] aeronmelon@lemmy.world 14 points 3 weeks ago

No need, I read the news. :/

[–] teft@lemmy.world 11 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

Yep. grue is definitely referencing this:

Can't wait to see how Bokai is hitting this year.

[–] klu9@lemmy.ca 7 points 3 weeks ago

Well, that timeline has already been derailed.

[–] hopesdead@startrek.website 1 points 3 weeks ago

Okay, tell me when professional baseball becomes a thing in the U.K.

[–] marcos@lemmy.world 6 points 3 weeks ago

Wow, they expected genetic engineering to move way faster.

Now I'm not finding that youtube video about a guy not being mugged because the sci-fy story of the mugger happens too early and he can't believe in it...

[–] ininewcrow@lemmy.ca 4 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago) (1 children)

I think we're on track for the dark universe ... because we're more likely to do this ...

... rather than this ...

[–] hopesdead@startrek.website 4 points 3 weeks ago

It’s called Mirror Universe.
