... or we are not the Bell Riot Timeline

... we are also not in the Bad Timeline

... we are probably in the Worst Possible Timeline and never venture beyond our solar system let alone our planetary system.

The Vulcans are sitting just outside our solar system and see what's happening and are saying to themselves 'yeah, we'll pass, these guys are doomed anyway'

Maybe this timeliness is where the first aliens we meet are The Borg

[-] SolarMonkey@slrpnk.net 17 points 2 months ago

Maybe this is the timeline where we start the Borg..

We're teaching it how to think as we speak.

We are the Terrans.

You win the Back to Reality award. Congratulations, I guess.

A variant would be that we're on the Third Body Problem alternate timeline, where everyone in the Dark Forest already knows about us and don't do anything simply because we are our own worst enemy and will take care of ourselves.

The worst timeline is that there are no Vulcans

Not sure if it is also worst for there to be no Borg.

An alternate reality in Star Trek The Next Generation where William Riker is disheveled and scared because the Borg have wiped out the Federation and his enterprise is one of the last ships left.

“The Federation is gone, my beard is everywhere!”

Wait… what episode is this?

[-] aeronmelon@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

Parallels (s7e11).

[-] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 3 points 2 months ago

All Borg, all the time.

It was the best of timelines, it was the worst of timelines...

/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.
