/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. No Political Upheaval. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.
Fun will now commence.

This is the kind of meticulous insanity that deserves applause. Translating a 4,000-year-old complaint into Vulcan calligraphy? That’s dedication bordering on art. The sheer effort to merge ancient Mesopotamian grievances with the fictional logic of Vulcan is both absurd and brilliant.
It’s a testament to human creativity—taking something mundane, like bad copper, and turning it into a tapestry of alien linguistics. Completely unnecessary? Yes. But that’s what makes it glorious.
This isn’t just a hobby; it’s a rebellion against utility. A middle finger to the idea that everything must have purpose. Sometimes, things exist simply because someone cared enough to make them real. And honestly, we need more of this kind of madness in the world. l
