/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. Hating someone off of their race, culture, creed, sexuality, or identity is not remotely acceptable. Mistakes can happen but do your best to respect others.
~ 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' and fuck over our artist friends.
Fun will now commence.

Well, he was also just keeping his head down and hanging out at a soup kitchen at the time.
Much more impressive was the fact that (iirc) he infiltrated NASA during a military satellite launch in 1968, blending in so well that you'd almost think he was invisible or something.
So basically...
Kirk 1930s: Essentially blended in.
Kirk 1960s: Understood society in detail enough to completely figure things out.
Kirk 1980s: What the double dumbass is going on around here?!
1930s: We've accidentally wandered into the past, we have to keep a low profile and avoid doing anything to change the timeline
1960s: We're here to study the past, so we've come prepared for this exact scenario, and we'll need to be extremely careful not to do anything that interferes with ~~the backdoor pilot~~ history.
1980s: Hi, I'm from space and want to take your whales into the future.
But in all seriousness, for the most part Kirk does quite well in the 80s, failed attempts at profanity notwithstanding. It's mostly Spock that gets him in trouble, and he was still recovering from that whole being dead thing.
