/c/TenForward: 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.

"Explicit Content?" "Parental Advisory?" What are they singing, Simon and Garfunkel hits?

Acid punk would be "family friendly" Klingon music, suitable for the nursery. The stuff with the advisories are going to be, I don't know, Colby Caillat.

Blame the Ferengi. They figure the warning will actually increase sales amongst intergalactic youth.

Edit: Here's the unfettered CD and DVD covers, whatever that means.

This is too good for someone to not make a real Klingon KISS cover band. I want to hear the Klingon version of Love Gun.

[–] sundray@lemmus.org 5 points 4 days ago

For the right price, KISS would officially endorse it.

[–] OpenStars@piefed.social 5 points 4 days ago (1 children)

I cannot say that this is the best KISS in all of Stat Trek - bc that would ofc be blasphemy - but I can definitely say that this is one of them!:-)

It's a good one worth remembering. The next most iconic of which wouldn't come along 'til DS9:

Edit: I feel compelled to emphasize that it's iconic for the sake of breaking social barriers and not "chicks kissing, oogabooga" type baffoonery.

[–] OpenStars@piefed.social 8 points 4 days ago

I almost put that one (tho static copy), but decided to stick with the fries and true classic.

Also, even Dax wants to make out with Urhura!
