/c/TenFoward: 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.

The true origin of this gesture is even better than the joke:

People don't realize they're blessing each other with this ๐Ÿ––

Leonard Nimoy was quite devout. Also, he grew up speaking Yiddish at home.

Actually, all three of a Vulcan's erogenous holes are closer in tone to mauve or burgundy, and so you will need to also account for the thumb in your mnemonic.

The origin of 'kemosabe' is actually debated. But probably does not mean what Gary Larson thought.

Imagine having so many obscene hand gestures that one can write an entire book on them. Like an entire sign language just for insults

The Vulcans are nothing if not thorough.
