How I feel about endless Star Trek memes-

I don't need your fantasy cigars!

I cannot express enough, how much I’ve learned about Star Trek thru memes and coffee

Great, we can qualify Risa as an educational community.

We're not leaking, we're teaching.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 2 years ago

We're well on the path to becoming a religion, as is predicted by Futurama.

You're not leaking or teaching .... you're leaching

the loss or extraction of certain materials from a carrier into a liquid

... in the case of Risa ... it's the general loss and extraction of the grey matter of my brain via memes and turning my thoughts into an educational gooey liquid

I’m continually positively surprised how many memes here kick off more serious discussion and speculation about the shows. It’s one of the things that sucked me in.

I’m not convinced that I will ever quite have the right sense of humour to have my own original memes take off here, but you guys make me want to stretch beyond my comfort zone.

Education, meaningful debate & self development. Wow.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 2 years ago

And we love having you around buddy <3

The respectful discussions on here are definitely one of the reasons I stick around.

I say just go for it. I sometimes make a dumb meme and post it thinking "This is probably only funny to me." and then I'm pleasantly surprised. Even when it doesn't land, it's still fun to make.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 years ago

That's definitely been my approach. Much of the time an idea will crop up and I just slap something together. I've learned over time through trial and error. Even then, there are posts that don't "land" and that's ok.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago

Just let them fly. Do it.
I've even made some memes here. Nothing amazing, but some people liked them.

If only Paramount would remaster DS9 and VOY like this. Very crisp work.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Apparently Voyager is being worked on by someone. They released images of Timeless recently and it looks incredible. It's going to be nice being able to experience that series again with a new level of definition.

That is the group that did the remaster of DS9 (which is amazing). They just finished the 1st season of Voyager.

Pretty much all it shows is instructions on how to download (sftp).

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Are you sure it’s not just for the upcoming Voyager documentary? Kind of like how they did a few select scenes of DS9 for What We Left Behind?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

Go here: https://discord.gg/meEZfdwb

All of DS9, and season 1 (so far) of Voyager

Risa is my favorite community. It took over the warm and fuzzy spot in my heart that I had for r/lotrmemes.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 2 years ago (1 children)

These memes are the best, you’re doing the lord’s work friend

[–] [email protected] 16 points 2 years ago

Q's work

And the life of future historians who try to understand today's culture by reading your memes

Nah, all records of the 21st century were erased during the Eugenics Wars.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Sure? The eugenic wars happened in the 1990s. Think again

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Not anymore thanks to timeline shenanigans according to SNW.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Ok, seriously: DS9 placed it in the 2030s, didn't they? And SNW changed it again?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I don't remember when DS9 placed it. However-

spoilerLa'an meets a child Khan aged maybe 7 or 8 on a trip to 2023 in SNW.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

I was wrong:

In contrast to the Eugenics Wars having previously been established as taking place in the 1990s, "Doctor Bashir, I Presume", set in 2373, references the Eugenics Wars as having occurred two centuries prior to the episode, placing the Wars in the late 22nd century. As Ronald D. Moore later admitted, this statement was a production error, a line he had taken from The Wrath of Khan, but he had accidentally forgotten to account for the episode being set a century later than the film.

And you're doing a great fucking job of it, too.

Thank you.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 2 years ago

No worries, now it is insantly vintage.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I remember seeing a meme like this here before. And here I am commenting again and spending more of my life on it again. :D

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 years ago (1 children)

You mean we could have seen this meme before?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

It HAS been a long road…

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 years ago (1 children)

... and millions more after our time ... so much waste ever expanding into the future

... what have you done?

[–] [email protected] 22 points 2 years ago

I apologize for nothing

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I've looked for a cleaner version of this meme with no luck... If you're remaking it from scratch, I may have to steal it. Lol

[–] [email protected] 12 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

Well I just posted it and it has Lemmings in it. If you want any alterations, the PSD, the source images, font, etc just shoot me a message

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 years ago (1 children)

the PTSD, the source images

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 years ago (1 children)

You scared the shit out of me for a second. I thought I wrote that.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

But would you have changed it if you did? Hmm

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

Oh captain, my captain.
