Risa: Your Home Away from Spacedock

Welcome to Risa

All the pleasure of shore leave, none of the holodeck glitches.

Rule 1 — Be Civil, Not KlingonThis is a vacation planet, not the neutral zone.

  • No harassment, brigading, or trolling
  • No bigotry
  • Keep the banter playful, not hostile

Rule 2 — No Prohibited CargoSome things aren’t welcome aboard.

  • No spam or scams
  • No porn or sexually explicit content
  • No illegal content
  • NSFW memes must be properly tagged

Rule 3 — Keep It TrekPosts should be Star Trek memes or Trek-adjacent humor.

  • Crossovers are fine
  • Low-effort “unrelated” memes may be spaced out the nearest airlock

Rule 4 — Gatekeeping Belongs in a Black Hole
You’re welcome to have your own opinions on what counts as “real” Star Trek but forcing your view on others or pretending it’s the only valid one? That’s not the Starfleet way.
Everyone’s Trek is valid, from TOS purists to Lower Decks shitposters, and you don't get to dictate what is real or not for everyone.


If you see a post that violates the rules, or that doesn't inspire Jamaharon, report it so the mods can handle it.

Otherwise grab a horga’hn, order a Risan Mai Tai, and enjoy your shore leave.

If you're maga and a star trek fan then you're just a fucking idiot. That's not gatekeeping, that's just reality

Hmm, now that you mention it, I don't specifically remember much about the main characters. They were all sort of 'vehicles' for the plot. Buuuuuuuut I do know there were 'other' perspectives, as in the one male-presenting protagonist who used a culture gun to blow up a ship in order to save his lover from the evil mafia/gang leader. Said lover was also definitely male.

Okay, shit. I just went and read the summary of the short story. The protagonist was a female-to-male, with a male lover. So congratulations on getting that wrong.
