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.

Positronic debug, those with the belly button as ground, create a kinda uart.

The space cold makes his nipples go pointy, so he can use them as telescopic antennae to transmit data back to Enterprise.

Data, in space do you smoke weed or Astro-turf?

What part of "fully functional" are you not understanding?

[–] panda_abyss@lemmy.ca 16 points 4 hours ago

Fully functional.

never forget that canonically Data must have a refillable cum tank, and it's someone's job to refill it.

~~Possibly, but Data can perform much of his own maintenance, can he not? Soong considered many aspects in his design — perhaps his ejaculatory system is designed with this in mind and is capable of refilling without additional tooling.~~

Computer, delete that entire post.

Sure, but where is he getting the cum?

can...can you replicate cum? I guess theoretically you should be able to? Now I'm imagining him saying "Computer, replicate a bucket of cum," and swapping em out.

[–] microcapybara@sopuli.xyz 5 points 1 hour ago

I don’t see why not. To the replicator it’s no different than a plate of steak and eggs. You could even make customizations: “Computer, one bucket of cum, extra thick. Add a hint of Barzan star fruit.”

Noonian Soong cared deeply about verisimilitude.

Nipples are a fundamental part of the human experience.

Has? Or is Data like data wrt plural

[–] msfroh@lemmy.ca 4 points 2 hours ago

Have is correct.

"Why does John have an umbrella?"

"Why does my dog have a wet nose?"

[–] sad_detective_man@sopuli.xyz 2 points 3 hours ago

They assist with detective work

You've got to recharge him somehow..

Maybe Data doesn't, but Brent Spiner does, so Spiner's portrayal of Data was less than perfect (through no fault of his own).

Like how Michael Dorn isn't really a Klingon, he's just a man who portrays one.

Cue the lo-res Geordi LaForge version of the Drake meme.
