/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.

Tom Bombadil was 0% an asshole

[–] [email protected] 9 points 10 months ago

Looks like we got the usual Bombadil defenders in this thread

Ferengi are dwarves because they’re short and love gold…pressed latinum.

They don't do any mining though.

[–] [email protected] 17 points 10 months ago (2 children)

I bet they'd be big on crypto mining.... Or at least crypto mining scams.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 10 months ago

That actually makes a lot of sense.

But I sure fucking hope that kind of crypto garbage doesn't last.

The Orions are the real orcs, since they're fight-y, often criminal, and green. Klingons are dwarves. Honorable combat, clans, they hate the dark elf race, etc.

Aethetics aside, I'd say they're closer to drow. They enslave others in masse, usually evil, occasionally good/neutral.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 10 months ago

For your information, many Orions haven't been pirates for over five years!

[–] [email protected] 6 points 10 months ago

They're even matriarchal.

You know, the way Gandalf yells at Pippin does remind me a bit of Picard and Wesley's dynamic...

[–] [email protected] 5 points 10 months ago

Fool of a Wesley!

Is that the cover of Bohemian Rhapsody in the original Klingon?

[–] [email protected] 18 points 10 months ago

I honestly always thought this was intentional

[–] [email protected] 18 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Well the romulans do scheme like drow…

[–] [email protected] 14 points 10 months ago

And the focus on stealth vs brute force.
