/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.

How in the fuck is trying to let you know that you missed a joke about fluid trolling? Please look at the context of the thread you're replying to instead of making knee jerk assumptions and just firing off "hot take" replies.

I'm not the one looking foolish here.

I understand that you said in some other comment that you have someone on lemmy stalking you and downvoting your shit. I understand that whoever the fuck the user plainsimplegarak is, the guy who called you Jimmy, is weird and unhinged. I am neither of those people.

I was just trying to tell you that you missed a dumb joke about the word fluid, and responded agressively to the person making it. My bad that I should have replied to you one comment higher rather than below "garak", but it looked like you were just doubling down on weird out of place aggression.

Either way, I have no idea what in the fresh hell you think is going on now or who the fuck you think I am. Please take a moment and come back to this comment thread when you aren't... in whatever weird ass state you seem to be in right now.

I've only ever interacted with you here, trying to point out the stupid joke you seemed to miss and misinterpret as some bigoted attack, and now I'm confused as all hell.

How in the fuck

Ok, you’re clearly having an eye-popping, rage-reaction and aren’t rational. As such, I’m - quite rationally - ignoring every ridiculous thing you’ve said and hoping that a mental health professional can stabilize you.

May the fire in your mind light the path to your recovery.

Best of luck!

Oh joy. I'm saved by your magnamity.

You missed a pun and ran with the thought that you were under attack rather than the possibility you missed an obvious and dumb joke.

I hope one day you find relief from the trolls you've built in your own head. I'm out.

Hey. I hope you can read through this chain later. This guy didn't say anything mean and you snapped at him. I get it. We all do things quickly and poorly when angry. It's all good. Your response was poor and I think you should consider that in the future to try to avoid making the same mistake.

The post shows you care to some extent about how other people feel. I would hope that extends to people on the other side of a conversation to you too. I can understand you were upset by other things, but that doesn't make it OK to try to upset other people. It won't help you.
