/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.

I double checked the rules. Profanity is allowed, so I'm continuing my new hobby of emphatically uncensoring needlessly censored memes.

[–] TimewornTraveler@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 2 days ago (1 children)

did you even identify the correct font?

[–] moakley@lemmy.world 15 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Obviously! This is a serious project.

(I looked up a Star Trek font and didn't realize until just now that the whole thing was Star Trek font.)

oh nice! what a happy accident. good job, chance

Every time I see this, I wonder if he really said that. And every time I forget to look it up.

O'Brien is a highlight of any show he's in.

[–] ininewcrow@lemmy.ca 28 points 3 days ago (1 children)

They could still make a Star Trek spin off with him at any time with him at any age in any place .....

Star Trek: Transport Buffer ..... starring Colm Meaney

Also staring John C. Reilly as his long-lost brother: Conor O'Brien

Edit: long-buffered brother

Imagine an entire series of just long-buffered O'Brien's everywhere

[–] pinball_wizard@lemmy.zip 14 points 3 days ago (2 children)

It would be great for O'Brien to show up in every era of Trek after DS9 through the same kind of transporter accident that brought Scotty into TNG - but have it happen once in each show.

[–] ininewcrow@lemmy.ca 12 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Lol .... and just get an actor that kinda looks like Colm Meaney and whenever his appearance is questioned, he just passes it off as being an imperfect buffer clone.

[–] pinball_wizard@lemmy.zip 5 points 2 days ago

Yes! Anytime Colm can't join for the episode, they should just cast John C Reilly, and then only barely acknowledge it.

Then, eventually, they can do a transporter clone episode with both Colm and John.

He doesn't know what to do with his hands
