/c/TenForward: 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.

Kira has great, "I don't get paid enough to deal with this crap" energy.

I hate Kai Wynn with a passion. The character is so well written and acted that I had a visceral reaction whenever she made an appearance. Wynn’s manipulation of religion for her own personal gain struck a special nerve with me.

The same actress played an equally despicable character, Nurse ~~Hatchett~~ Ratched, in One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest.

Louise Fletcher was an incredible actor and we miss her so.

She'd be the top villain on so many other shows, but DS9 has so many great villains that she almost gets lost.

[–] TheFrirish@jlai.lu 3 points 11 months ago

Yeah it was an all too relatable experience to have to deal with.

My face when I bring the church lady to my manager so he can tell her the same thing I just told her.

Is it "Fuck off"?

[–] HobbitFoot@thelemmy.club 18 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I know this story. It is "The Lion, The Witch, and The Audacity Of This Bitch".

[–] ummthatguy@lemmy.world 9 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Can't say I've seen a DS9 version of that yet. Well, got a new project. Thanks!

"What worries me, my child, is how your poor mother is going to take this."

  • A distillation, resulting in the most horrible line she could possibly say as an actress.
[–] Blackout@kbin.run 7 points 11 months ago

She should wear this shirt everywhere she goes

I know people like deep space nine but I just couldn't get into the star trek version of a dirty truck stop.

[–] verity_kindle@sh.itjust.works 2 points 11 months ago (2 children)

Thank you, this is my discomfort that I haven't been able to summarize. Can I truly lurk under the tables of tenforward when I feel this way about DS9?

[–] ummthatguy@lemmy.world 4 points 11 months ago

Eh, it's a personal preference.

[–] catsarebadpeople@sh.itjust.works 2 points 11 months ago

Just listen to The Greatest Generation DS9 and you'll get all the good stuff without having to watch.
