/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.

Gay man here in Missouri. A lot of my trans friends and me are very concerned about our futures.

[–] [email protected] 65 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

You should be. We should all be concerned about our futures. I'm a white, CIS guy, and I'm concerned. We're completely off the rails now.

[–] [email protected] 17 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) (1 children)

I'm a white CIS guy as well, and I'm worried to the point I can barely function this morning.

I work at a not for profit hospital that's already on a shoestring budget. Any cuts to government healthcare coverage and my department may as well get slashed in half

In a country with a barely functioning (for the non-wealthy) medical system, it can still get worse.

I'm concerned about your futures too. My daughter is queer and as of 2 am this morning, we've been working on plans to get to the UK, where I have dual citizenship.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Doo it. You should me able to get a family visa as long as your daughter is under 18 and your family income is over £29k.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 2 weeks ago

We're working on it. My wife is sending out resumes today.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Best of luck to you and your family to get out of there as quick and easy as possible.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 weeks ago

Thank you. Best of luck to you as well.

My boyfriend ~~totes not domestic partner of 7 years, because I'm trying to get on SSDI~~ does have dual citizenship in 🇮🇪 (also an O'Brien lol).

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 weeks ago

Can you get emergency married and have him get you over?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

care to take 3 along with you?

[–] [email protected] 9 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

I wish I could. I wish I could take my daughter's girlfriend and her trans friend with me.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 weeks ago

That would be much better for sure

Any chance you and your friends can hijack a decent State and dig a giant moat around it?

[–] [email protected] 12 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

I think our best hope is to move to California and then wait for The Big One to break CA off from the rest of the US.

[–] [email protected] 20 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Move to Alaska. We need more left-leaning people. We're already starting to go purple and our population is so low that it probably won't take much to get us to go solidly blue.

Plus, you won't have to wait for a massive earthquake to separate you from the rest of the country. Canada will do that.

Tempting. It is beautiful up there.
