    There’s 2 kinds of people in Trek fandom:

    1. The sane people who know Berman sucks and her outfit is a known unfortunate symptom - we just pretend Seven had real clothes.
    2. “I liiiike Seven of Nine” - creepy gen X white guys who just watch Trek for boobs and lasers.

      Wow. You’re just going to exclude creepy boomers like that?

      Ummm… actshually they are called “phasers” in the Star Trek universe. You see… the difference is that…

        It was actually an attempt to use indirect characterization - by using “lasers” instead of “phasers”, it shows that the demographic I am describing only pays attention to the superficial aesthetic of Star Trek rather than its meaning or even common technical terms in the show.

        But still, I derive quite a bit of humor from your comment.

        That is correct. That is a point for @OpenStars@piefed.social

      Option number 2 describes my ex-wife. Generalizing to “creepy gen x white guys” is your own bias. The most lecherous comments I have heard about seven in real life have come from the mouth of a female scientist.

      Option 2 was known even at the time and appears as a joke in the dilbert cartoon.

      This is a clip of dilbert waking to a 7-of-9 alarm clock which proceeds to roast him.

        I mean, the creator of Dilbert is basically option 2 incarnate in the most terrifying way possible, so it makes sense.

      Come for the boobies and phasers (and the rare shots of female bare feet, nudity, and women kissing women), stay for the well-written hardcore sci-fi.

/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. 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.
