/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. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.
Fun will now commence.

So... back to normal in a week?
Plot armor is still at 100%, so we're safe for now.
Ablative plot armor. Hmm. Wonder if there's meme potential in that? 🤔
That's just the author getting fed up of their character and killing them off. From the character's point of view the shot sort of comes from right-angles to reality.
Fed up, or desperate to add an emotional kick to the pants. (See the Defiant getting rocked by the Borg cube in First Contact, with no noticeable damage on DS9, but getting taken out by the Breen, only to be replaced two weeks later, with only new carpet to show for it.)
Aren't those redshirts?
I'm more like the NX-01 where the damage doesn't get rebooted between episodes.
No, the NX-01 uses a B'Elanna space station like Roddenberry intended.
Still ends up doing just fine as-is though.
Hmmmmm... Maybe every enterprise has a q "secretly" working in engineering and everyone pretends they don't know?
* a few hours
A week in terms of when we saw the previous episode. When it first aired anyway.
