/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.

@jawa21@startrek.website for realizing that the line used to be "want to be added to the sidebar?" and capitalized on it. Congratulations and welcome to the sidebar. Stamets is both ashamed and proud.

This makes me very suspicious that you’re secretly a Ferenghi. Did Quark talk you into this?

I'll give you 15 strips for one if it's numbered and stamped with a seal of authentication by the Ferengi Commerce Authority.

Brunt, FCA: “What I want is 52 discs of vacuum-dessicated @Stamets. Nothing more, nothing less.”

@Stamets: “Joke’s on you, I’m into that shit!”

[–] clearedtoland@lemmy.world 5 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Odo’s going to be allll over you.

I don't trust that product. It's probably filled with tardigrades.

[–] NegativeLookBehind@kbin.social 9 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Guaranteed to keep you erect for at least 6 hours

[–] bappity@lemmy.world 7 points 10 months ago

you teleport between mirror universes at climax

I hope you're getting royalties

I mean... The Founder of Host Defense is Paul Stamets... In 1980... https://hostdefense.com/pages/who-we-are#about-paul-stamets ... Sounds like someone has a temporal problem ...

[–] aeronmelon@lemmy.world 6 points 10 months ago (1 children)

He's wearing a shirt with a Delta Shield...

[–] abbadon420@lemm.ee 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

This cannot be coincidence, can it?

[–] ininewcrow@lemmy.ca 4 points 10 months ago

My brain just travelled into the mycelial network and back again .... that is freakin amazing ... I love the connection they made there ... wow

[–] roguetrick@kbin.social 8 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I figured you'd be something like gas station boner pills and not something classy like artisan squeezed immune system boosting mushrooms.

[–] Stamets@lemmy.world 5 points 10 months ago

The difference between me in dress blues and me in a tanktop

[–] instamat@lemmy.world 8 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Confirmed, I yearn to put my dick in the bottle too

[–] ininewcrow@lemmy.ca 6 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago) (1 children)

I see you conveniently cropped out the price tag so as not to disappoint us by showing us the true cost of this highly priced, unobtainable by mere mortals product.

I'll have to settle for the Lion's Mane instead ... it will help with my mental clarity.

[–] Rolando@lemmy.world 3 points 10 months ago

Once your mind is clear, you'll realize you should have gotten stamets instead.

Reminds me of Hasselhoff eating that burger.

[–] negativenull@lemm.ee 5 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Essence of Stamets in a bottle? Not sure how to feel about that one

[–] Stamets@lemmy.world 3 points 10 months ago

Neither am I my man! I didn't wanna by powdered!

[–] Cheems@lemmy.world 5 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I think based on that tag it's entirely possible we live in the same town.

[–] rushaction@programming.dev 3 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago) (1 children)

Good gods I had the same reaction. I want to know the isle this photo was taken in so I can go find out!

But that has to be a trademark shared elsewhere right??

edit: Okay, yeah, National Cooperative Grocers Association. I'm mildly disappointed now lol.

THAT explains the moldy memes!

So... Why exactly are you good for the immune system?

[–] Stamets@lemmy.world 4 points 10 months ago

I am painfully white so clearly if I am any type of cell it is white, which works for your immune system

[–] zqwzzle@lemmy.ca 4 points 10 months ago

You seem to be a fun guy.

[–] midori@lemmy.world 4 points 10 months ago

My God, they've bottled me. I don't know how, but they've bottled me. RUN FOR IT, MARTY!

[–] VindictiveJudge@lemmy.world 4 points 10 months ago

Sounds like someone is trying to run a scam on vacuum desiccated remains, like what with happened with Plegg.

[–] neurospice@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 10 months ago

What becoming one with the mycelium network does to a person

[–] Blackout@kbin.social 3 points 10 months ago

Eat yo mushroom powders so you can be big and strong.

[–] spittingimage@lemmy.world 3 points 10 months ago

Thank you for your sacrifice.

[–] ZombiFrancis@sh.itjust.works 3 points 10 months ago

Paul is an interesting fellow. I almost worked for him. Went into shellfish instead at the last minute.

[–] Ashyr@sh.itjust.works 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Is that why he's named Stamets?

[–] antlion@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 10 months ago

The character is named after the mycologist. I knew of the mycologist first and was very surprised (and kinda weirded out at first) to hear his name on screen.

[–] casmael@startrek.website 2 points 10 months ago

Oh shit what’s the inside scoop

[–] Transporter_Room_3@startrek.website 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Hey, if you get some, you can just say "eat/bite me" and toss some their way!

[–] epsilon_eridani@startrek.website 2 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

Own some Stamets for host defense.

[–] TexMexBazooka@lemm.ee 2 points 10 months ago

It’s tight in here

[–] peopleproblems@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Wait, mushroom mycelium powder?

They did this post exposure to the mycelial network?
