I think we don't use "normal-eared" often enough as a descriptor.

Risa: Your Home Away from Spacedock

Welcome to Risa
All the pleasure of shore leave, none of the holodeck glitches.
Rule 1 — Be Civil, Not Klingon
This is a vacation planet, not the neutral zone.
- No harassment, brigading, or trolling
- No bigotry
- Keep the banter playful, not hostile
Rule 2 — No Prohibited Cargo
Some things aren’t welcome aboard.
- No spam or scams
- No porn or sexually explicit content
- No illegal content
- NSFW memes must be properly tagged
Rule 3 — Keep It Trek
Posts should be Star Trek memes or Trek-adjacent humor.
- Crossovers are fine
- Low-effort “unrelated” memes may be spaced out the nearest airlock
Rule 4 — Gatekeeping Belongs in a Black Hole
You’re welcome to have your own opinions on what counts as “real” Star Trek but forcing your view on others or pretending it’s the only valid one? That’s not the Starfleet way.
Everyone’s Trek is valid, from TOS purists to Lower Decks shitposters, and you don't get to dictate what is real or not for everyone.
If you see a post that violates the rules, or that doesn't inspire Jamaharon, report it so the mods can handle it.
Otherwise grab a horga’hn, order a Risan Mai Tai, and enjoy your shore leave.

Star Trek (1966) - S01E05 - The Man Trap
The show originally premiered with the fifth episode of the first season. Early Star Trek airings were plagued out-of-order episodes.
"Let's air Firefly out of order as an homage to Star Trek!"

Yeah I was a little confused, because S1E1 did technically have a “shape shifter” but it only shape shifted into a space station.
Pointy ears - for the kids.
Wow, was this the TV Guide blurb?
Yep!
It's phaser, not laser!
William Shatner, playing a no-nonsense space ship captain.
Isn't this from TV Guide? I've not been able to track down the image that was in this issue promoting the "colorful space food".
