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 KlingonThis 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 CargoSome 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 TrekPosts 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.

Have we tried ear ridges? I feel like that might open some doors.

Also, get some fit, young people in uniforms that are essentially lingerie and chalk it up to efficiency, or freedom of movement or something.

TOS writer: “A Human-looking female, but her species only wears colored underwear.”

"How about... chittering fish people?" 😥

Sounds like a great opportunity to get some officers from Cetacean Ops some screen time!

Star Trek needs ~~more~~ any spacefaring, technologically advanced ferals/quadrupeds/non-bipeds.

Maybe cetacean ops counts there tho

Don't forget the Tholians.

Idk, I still think my favorite is black and white cookie vs white and black cookie.
