Really, what do they expect? Mental Healthcare is more or less nonexistent everywhere he goes.

/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. Hating someone off of their race, culture, creed, sexuality, or identity is not remotely acceptable. Mistakes can happen but do your best to respect others.
~ 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' and fuck over our artist friends.
Fun will now commence.

a star trek horror movie... hmmmm ...... thats a deep, dark well of material i think i would want to avoid.
I think you could make a good star trek horror movie in keeping with roddenberry's vision of star trek, while also being genuinely scary.
In some distant future when a Hologram control computer can give you any type of media imaginable to within a 9.37% margin of error using available sources, and watch a Tarantino directed Star Trek, or if you wanted for some reason, a star trek directed by Tommy Wiseau.
The one where those guys turn the whole ship into a holodeck and hunt the crew repeatedly was pretty dark
I think Black mirror did an episode on this? Don't remember the plot though.
Obvious spoilers, but the plot was like a nerdy-bullied gaming CEO would digitally clone his coworkers into a Star Trek bridge simulation where he would abuse them.
The digital clones had all their real memories and knew they were cloned into the game but had to play the part of a Star Trek crew going on adventures or be tortured.
Futurama spoilers
This is eerily similar to the episode "Where No Fan Has Gone Before"
Star Trek TOS superfan kidnaps the crew is the enterprise and Planet Express and makes them perform, or else....
Welshie!
Ah, that was a great episode!
The Daystrom Station part of Picard did horror pretty well.
i have not watched the picard series yet, but all indications show it to be darker material. would you agree?
Definitely, but I also think that season 1 is only okay and season 2 is pretty mediocre, so the only season I really liked was season 3.
‘Mediocre’ is being extremely generous to Season 2.
I think it had its moments here and there, but it really pissed me off that it acted like Time's Arrow never happened.
The only part I hate about season 3 is that Paramount+ doesn't let you skip the intro or credits >:3
What? "The Haunting of Deck 12" would like a word
i was thinkin more obrien & keiko getting lost in a black mirror/saw kind of situation where keiko has to cut out their unborn child with worfs foreskin to survive. more 'horror' less 'scary'.
edit: for the record, i didnt want to go there. he made me do it
A tale as old as time
I wish you hadnt
... or why didn't some psychopathic Admiral decide to take the technology and crew an entire rogue starship with nothing by cloned Picards or a dozen ships all crewed by duplicated Datas or an army of cloned Worfs
If the transporter system is capable of disassembling someone or something at the molecular level .. doesn't that mean it would be capable of making a copy? There have been plenty of episodes where there were 'accidents' and duplicates were created. So it means that the system is capable of being programmed to make multiple copies if they wanted to.
And if that were the case, someone somewhere would have weaponized this technology. It's like the period when we all discovered digital music and duplication software and hardware became available, all of sudden we could duplicate any digital media we wanted and it went wild for a while. I'm pretty sure out of the billions of people and species that would have had access to this technology, one of them or a few of them would have put two and two together and figured out that it could create clones and duplicates. It would turn into a great weapon for someone with a maniacal plan.
