Every single large server in this federation has at least one Star Trek community. There is even an entire server dedicated to Star Trek.

Not only that, these communities are some of the most active I’ve ever seen. There is no other franchise I know of that dominates the federation as much as Star Trek does.

So, what’s the correlation with Lemmy and Star Trek? Why not other sci-fi series? Please, are there any connections?? Is this all coincidental?

    the thing is, most of the themes/story lines in star trek are about as timeless as the series. there are no ‘dated’ story lines (tropes, definitely) … in fact many of the moral dilemmas discussed are absolutely still relevant today

      200 years of evolution and we’re still learning the same lesson 😤

      I am a big fan of the OG ST. My wife will have it on when I walk in to prepare dinner. I never tire of the show. The stories are wonderful and I am highly entertained by the campy acting and simple sets. Honestly, the musical score used in the original is so very good and I love hearing it. I would use many for ringtones (esp the fighting score - you know it) if I weren’t so lazy. Someday.
