/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. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.

Fun will now commence.

Picard: Mr. LaForge, this is the worst transporter accident in Federation history.

Geordi: It could have been worse, Captain. They could have been horribly merged.

Picard: But at least there would still only be one of them.

If the Keikos and the Winns get together, the group they comprise is officially known as a Homeowner's Association.

It's enough to rival the Dominion itself

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 4 points 3 days ago

Oo... That's a tough choice.

Worst? Best!

The conflict of which one gets to hold the Sacred chalice of Rixx or keep the holy rings of Betazed would be juicy

Imagine realizing your mother only showed up to your wedding because she wanted to hit on your boss. While naked.

Ok, so tangent from that: how is her name pronounced?

I've only ever read it, so I've pronounced it "Madge-ul". But "Mage-ul" also sounds right. And then ~~Lower Decks~~ Prodigy has a character named Ma'Jel which also sounds right lol.

I've always heard it pronounced "MAY-jul." Shatner says it around 30 seconds into this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cIxXHbjSQos

FEDERATION???
btw have you heard of this AWESOME thing called lemmy???????

[–] SatyrSack@feddit.org 3 points 3 days ago (2 children)

What's this animated Lwaxana all about? I don't get the joke here.

[–] ptz@dubvee.org 3 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) (2 children)

AFAIK, there's no inherent joke to the animated one, though the theme is Lwaxana Twesday.

If you google image "Lwaxana Troi" that is one of the top results. It's also one of the very few full body images which is what I needed for this one (it was originally a reply to a comment a few months ago about "Three Lwaxanas in a corridor ala The Shining")

I just saw the previous entry using that same animated image which reminded me of that months-old comment that I upcycled into a post.

I needed her to be pointing...ish!!! I felt bad enough breaking one Majel-Barrett elbow. I didn't have the heart to break three.

[–] ptz@dubvee.org 4 points 3 days ago

If you don't look too close at it....

[–] SatyrSack@feddit.org 2 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

Yeah, also seeing that other post using the same "animated" Lwaxana really made me think I was missing a layer/reference because I did not know what that came from. So the joke in these posts would have still been exactly the same if you had been able to find a full-length Lwaxana from literally anywhere else. Thanks.

The animations are in the Star Trek mobile game
