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 Klingon
This 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 Cargo
Some 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 Trek
Posts 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.

Why is there a special word for mixed-sex education in American like that’s not just normal?
Because historically educational opportunities were divided by gender? I think the stranger part is that the word evolved to mean mixed gender in any situation where it's not expected, like the co-ed decon chamber (or locker room or football team) Don't know how much education was going on in there.
You could just say mixed and it’d just be one syllable. Wait, is this because mixed means a different thing in a country that had apartheid?
Looks like it
In more progressive circles I hear “all gender” being used, to be more inclusive. All gender square dancing, for an example in my neighborhood. All gender restrooms as well.
Mixed might be confusing as to what is mixed, and yes, it could mean race, but only if you are talking about people. No one is assuming in 2025 that the toilets are segregated by race.
“Mixed football “ might mean we are also going to play ultimate frisbee, at the same time, somehow.
