/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.
Use spoiler tags in comments, and NSFW checkbox for posts.
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.

It’s crazy how much a bit of walking can do to one’s body in the long run.
You often see people saying they don’t care if they die young, but it’s not about the age you get to, but how much or your life is spent in misery. Being old 60-80 is rough.
By doing something for exercise (e.g. walking) vs. doing nothing, you get around 80% of the benefit of an optimized exercise strategy. I agree 100% about healthspan being as important or more important than lifespan. When I was fat, I had a real wake-up call coming back from a family vacation. I was carrying my 2 carry-on bags up the jetway after exiting the plane, and I was out of breath. As I waited for my ex-wife and kids, they wheeled up a man probably a decade older than me in a wheelchair with an oxygen tank, and I saw my future in that instant. Having recovered my health and fitness has been life changing for me. Not only can I do all the things I used to enjoy when I was young, I hang out with a younger crowd and attract women half my age. My only regret is that it took me so long to begin to properly care for myself and develop the habits that keep me strong and healthy.
