TenForward: Where Every Vulcan Knows Your Name
/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. Hating someone off of their race, culture, creed, sexuality, or identity is not remotely acceptable. Mistakes can happen but do your best to respect others.
~ 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' and fuck over our artist friends.
Fun will now commence.

That is extremely disrespectful. When someone risks there life and survives one of the bloodiest battles you don't give them the finger.
Doohan was in all his public appearances and talks a genuinely kind and thoughtful person. He even laughed about his missing finger later in life.
He lived through enough horrors in that war but life redeemed him a lot of joys through his work at Star Trek that I don't think he would have taken any of this as an offense. I certainly don't because I know where @ummthatguy@lemmy.world heart is at.
I'm sure Doohan would have had a laugh at this too.
I profusely apologize for any offense, as it was never my intent. Just took the opportunity to showcase instances of "the bird" in Trek media as it related to his injury. Mr. Doohan's service helped countless many, among others.
I wouldn't take it too hard ... I can understand @possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip surprise because for a second, I felt the same way ... until I saw who had posted it. Anyone else and I would have challenged the response in the same way because I would not have known who the commenter was or where they were coming from.
In all the comments and responses we make on these silly platforms, eventually we will inevitably step on toes and say the wrong things at the wrong time, in the wrong way and taken in the wrong context.
Much like Doohan getting his finger shot off by his own men ... eventually we will get shot at by our allies on the internet front lines.
All good but I personally think this your comment could be interpreted in different ways.
