Is it bad that I’m looking at the background to see if there’s a time loop LCARS display snuck in there? The last few days (dozens? hundreds?) may have broken me. :D

/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.

Sorry to disappoint as well as contribute to the trauma. Just your run-of-the-mill, low hanging fruit meme while I brainstorm something else.
Nothing to fear. It’s just warm, comforting rhythm of TOS status indicators back there.
Back to the mess.
I'd like to address this from a meta standpoint: There's the initiating meme, the informative/bonus body info... but then, there's the title. How many of the potential/expected jokes in the comments do you quash before there's even a chance to retort?
At the highest functioning level... none! Communities being designed to facilitate such ~~shitposting~~ interactions after all.
Surely I foresee that nothing whatsoever can ever go wrong with this plan, nosiree bob, never, not once could it ever backfire or anything...
Damnit!
