Well let’s see:

  • No student loans
  • Get to work on the biggest projects
  • Meet new people all the time
  • Get to explore and experience new cultures, lots of travel
  • Get to spend my days with my 10 million closest friends in the universe
  • Never worry about who the president is
  • Retirement isn’t an issue I have to concern myself with
  • Be part of a team, you know?
  • Also freaken robot arm
  • Never have to hear about a sports ball game or a celebrity saying something problematic again

Downsides with rebuttals

  • No individuality? I don’t really get that as it stands
  • Chaffing from implants? Well I am sure they have a cream for that.
  • Don’t get to live in a democracy? I don’t live in one now, I live in a Republic where my vote doesnt matter that has like one election left. What could be more democratic than a collective mind?
  • Live in a giant metal cube with no privacy? I work in a plastic carpeted cube and have to wear headphones to get any work done.

I was on the fence, but the clarity about the chaffing cream has sold me

“Happy Monday Team! Resistance is futile!” - good morning message in most corporate offices, probably.

Create post

/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. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community’s expectations.

Fun will now commence.
