/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. Use spoiler tags in comments, and NSFW checkbox for posts.
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.

How did you get into my room to get this picture?! :-P

[–] teft@lemmy.world 18 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

You forgot one. This is the Pike I am. Tripping balls on Orion Delaq.

[–] ummthatguy@lemmy.world 13 points 11 months ago (2 children)

Feeling very 8. Need to get away from it all for a bit. Already got the beard.

[–] negativenull@lemmy.world 6 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Honestly, same. My beard is a bit scraggly right now too.

[–] Reverendender@sh.itjust.works 3 points 11 months ago (1 children)

We all made this decision together separately?

Resistance is futile. We will adapt your beard to service…us

[–] CptEnder@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago

Same bb same

"Name's Pike. Johnny Pike. Don't touch the hair."

[–] possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip 8 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

No regular (TOS) Pike?

[–] ummthatguy@lemmy.world 7 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Just realized we're missing some more Pike:

[–] negativenull@lemmy.world 6 points 11 months ago (1 children)
[–] ummthatguy@lemmy.world 4 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Oh yeah. He was a good Pike despite the shortcomings of that timeline.

[–] negativenull@lemmy.world 3 points 11 months ago

Not as entertaining as your Renaissance Pike, but yes, not a bad Pike

[–] anakin78z@lemmy.world 5 points 11 months ago

Strong 8 vibes today

[–] verity_kindle@lemmy.world 4 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Where did image #9 originate? I'm afraid to do my own research, because that's some phantom of the opera level shit and I want to wipe it away from my visual memory.

[–] ummthatguy@lemmy.world 5 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

Pike ruminates about the future that lays ahead of him, but has been informed of in the first episode of Strange New Worlds. It's a callback to the TOS pilot "The Cage". He's made aware of his fate during season 2 of DISCO.

These things are usually a string of discordant events that eventually get lumped together. A particular moment is often cited. The assassination of ~~Sir Francis Drake~~ Archduke Franz Ferdinand for WWI is the most well known. What do you think instigates the start?

Edit: My dumbass mixing up names

[–] MaggiWuerze@feddit.org 4 points 11 months ago

If everything continues like it does probably Ukraine or Israel? Depending on which escalates first, so probably the latter

[–] ininewcrow@lemmy.ca 3 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I think you may be confusing the assassination for Vasco da Gama when he suddenly and unexpectedly died in India.

[–] ummthatguy@lemmy.world 3 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Or we could go full blown 'merica and say it didn't "start" until the sinking of the RMS Lusitania well after shit got going.

[–] ummthatguy@lemmy.world 4 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I really should give Airplane II another chance.

[–] ininewcrow@lemmy.ca 5 points 11 months ago (1 children)

All those films ... the Airplane Series, Hot Shots, Naked Gun Series ... they should be required viewing for a Memeology Education Program

An additional program would be everything Star Trek

[–] grue@lemmy.world 3 points 11 months ago

I fear for the younger generation, and how much pop-culture they'd have to catch up on in order to understand tier 4 memes.

[–] grue@lemmy.world 3 points 11 months ago (1 children)

...what? Did you mean Archduke Franz Ferdinand, or is there some sort of in-joke going on here that I'm missing?

[–] ummthatguy@lemmy.world 3 points 11 months ago

Nah, just me mucking up my historical figures.

Now I wanna play Uncharted.

[–] wise_pancake@lemmy.ca 3 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

I’m a solid 8. In even sporting the same lazy style beard.

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 3 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I just trimmed my beard, I'm feeling rather dapper, and strapped myself into my beep chair

[–] ummthatguy@lemmy.world 5 points 11 months ago (1 children)
[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago

And like that my prosthetic chair fell off I'm ruined
