Young Ensign: “This is literally the worst part of serving in Starfleet.”
Old Lieutenant: “All we do is sit down and wait for a scan, this is nothing. On the Potemkin we still had to pee in a little cup.”

/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.

Had to look that one up. A rare TAS reference from s2e1 The Pirates of Orion. Once I do a full TOS rewatch, I need to follow through with the animated series.
It’s always a good time to do a watch through of TAS.
From what I've heard, it's pretty much a straightforward continuation, but more flexible... and I should probably be some sort of intoxicated.
The colours are unrepentantly psychedelic 70s fashionable and so are a few of the plots.
It’s popular to rag on The Animated Series, but the only thing really wrong with it is the Hanna-Barbara-tier animation. Once you get over that, it’s actually a really good time. And if it isn’t, it’s easy to make fun of it.
You mean the Potemkin? She was seen in the TOS episode The Ultimate Computer and listed on the plans for Operation: Retrieve in The Undiscovered Country.
I don’t know how else that TAS episode relates to the quotes I just pulled out of my ass to make a quick joke.
Also, by the time of Voyager, a USS Potemkin would no longer be a Constitution-class starship.
From Memory Alpha:
Captain's log, Supplemental. We have arranged to get the strobolin needed to save Mr. Spock's life. The starship Potemkin has already picked up the drug and will transfer it to a freighter, the SS Huron for delivery to the Enterprise.
The episode is literally about the Potemkin making a transfer of drugs to the Enterprise. Lucked into a solid reference, my friend.
Ah, now I get it.
I love everyone here, but sometimes I can’t follow your line of thinking. (:
No worries.
"But, Captain, why would any changelings even be in the Delta quadrant?"
