/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.

Can we choose a meme format with someone who isn't completely insubordinate to their captain? There's a chain of command for a reason and his disregard for captain Jelico's orders was way out of line!
Psh. Substitute captain jello was way out of line for disrupting a ship he knew he was just visiting
This style of sitting down happened because Johnathan Frakes had lower back pain and this was easier to do. Still cool though. I do it with all low-back chairs.
Can almost hear the fart
It’s no coincidence he plays the trombone.
No. He’s absolutely right.
This is a great way to sit on your balls.
If that's the goal, then you do you.
gotta curl the pelvis forward at the right moment
Oh man that little twinge you feel in your belly when you sit on your balls is so hot.
~~Wait was this during his SA trial? Why am I so certain he pulled this during his trial~~
No wait he does this ALL the time??
Yeah, Jonathan Frakes had an old hip injury that caused him pain when he sat down normally, and he's, like, seven feet tall, so stepping over the chair was just easier for him.
From back when he moved furniture for a living
