/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.

I have a good feeling about this...
edit: ok, so I’m 13 minutes in, and I had to stop so I could smoke some pharmaceutical weed, because the banana-guava moonshine I’m day-drinking just isn’t enough.
ok, of note: Kirk is immortal and played by a puppet that is definitely from Team America: World Police. I guess Snoop got it from Matt Stone or something, but it’s just perfect for this film somehow. Also, tribbles are in this move, but they’re, instead, fluorescent-colored afros called Cripples (as in the Crips gang), and they have hair picks stuck in them. it’s cute and funny.
All of that crazy I’m talking about in a single picture:
edit 2: immediately following this screen grab, Snoop emerges from the Guardian of Forever portal and tries to seduce the Cripples, which are, apparently, female. They’re into it.
edit 3: you must be at least THIS wasted to enjoy this “film” (yes, that is a jar of moonshine)
I'm about 30 minutes in, and it's indeed so bad, it's glorious
I can’t get high fast enough!
Reach for the stars, buddy
Uhura force-choking that lady:
All I'm getting out of this is that we have another source for memes... and I need to talk to my "shine" guy.
it’s a goldmine!
Where do you get moonshine and is it really home made by an amateur?
A coworkers husband makes it.
That’s very cool
Apparently, one can buy stills to operate at home. I get these jars from them on the regular. They infuse it with flavors, and I like the blueberry one he makes. The proof is typically between 95-110. He keeps it reasonable.
Goodnight, Kirk
That's... kind of racist? I mean I know Snoop is involved in this movie, but he didn't write or direct it.
This guy did.
hmmm… I can see that as being possibly problematic. one would think that Snoop would have said something if he thought so, considering he’s in the scene and says it himself, several times.
Who knows? Maybe he was fine with it. Maybe he thought it was not that big a deal even though it was kind of racist. Maybe he thought they paycheck was worth a little minor racism. I mean it's not like it's a character yelling the N-word.
I wouldn't exactly call Snoop a paragon of integrity either. He did say he loved and respected Trump.
I dunno. I’m not gonna speculate. the word is also an antiquated ableist slur, so that’s also problematic for its own reasons...
