    i appreciate the name’s implication that someone expects to find more than 99 and less than 1000 more types of Ship Goo.

      Fun fact. La Brea means “The Tar” in english. So we basically call The La Brea Tar Pits “The the tar tar pits”.

        This is both hilarious and extremely common.

        https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_tautological_place_names

        This often occurs when a name from one language is imported into another and a standard descriptor is added on from the second language.

      It’s really sad what happened to Bob La Brea High School.

    Ah so this is the origin story of the goo from Stephen King’s “The Raft”.

    I wonder how it gets out to Pennsylvania…

      Luckily, the ship is docked in Ohio, a place that doesn’t exist. We think the pocket dimension can contain the goo.

    In Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 there is a quest where you have to banish some demons from a castle. During the quest one of the cooks asks Henry what the demons look like and one of the options is black sticky tar.

    I always choose that one so that canonically Armus is in 15th century Bohemia.

/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.
