/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.

There are people that shave their head that can grow hair even in the 21st century. Picard looks better bald, I think it makes sense as a style choice, and in the 24th century there'd be less societal pressure or shaming in being bald if you choose to be. It's already changing today.
As a bald dude let me just say while I have never taken shit for it, and I am also lucky to have a good shaped skull for the wrecking ball aesthetic, if I had the spare cash I would get transplants in a heartbeat.
It is simply a matter of choice, if you want to shave your head because you think it looks good it’s one thing. But if you have to shave your head because you don’t want to look like mid 40s in your 20s, that’s very different.
I'm 36. Started going bald at 21.
I'm so used to me with a shaved head now that the thought of having hair freaks me out. If someone invented a way to get rid of the remaining bits of hair I have and let me keep my beard I'd jump at it.
Yeah a beard helps a lot with the looks, at least I have that going for me. But still, a nice head of hair would be a welcome change, if only so I don’t immediately sweat into my eyes and face when it’s warm outside. Makes working out very annoying without a sweatband
