That's how Janeway actually looks, they used CGI and practical effects to edit her eyes down to normal human caffeine levels.

/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.

A-a-are you sure you want to say that, without checking first whether she's had her coffee today?
She might decide to find coffee in your nebula!? :-P
She turned the molecules that once formed my ass into her personal replicator coffee rations to teach me a lesson.
I might be assless but at least I'm no longer being yelled at.
And Im sure the transporter will malfunction at some point & give me someone else's ass.
(In hoping for spandex)
Bit by bit, piece by piece, she will find her coffee, whatever she has to do!
Also, username kinda checks out, a little? 😛
(lol)
Spicy coffee, she asked for it, for by beans!
Nah. Janeway would call it weak and pour it out.
Janeway's coffee is made from ground up steel.
Ground up steel? I heard it was depleted warp plasma.
That's the creamer.
What are you doing step-captain?
depleted warp plasma.
Photon torpedoes. That's why Voy was always short on these
Nah. Janeway would call it weak and pour it out.
Janeway's coffee is made from ground up ~~steel~~Tuvix.
Mmmmmmm such an exotic blend.
She only did that because she was out of nebula.
Only nebulae can charge up the replicators to provide ground steel at the purity she expects.
A likely story. She couldn't resist the perfectly balanced notes of light and dark roasts constantly wafting around the ship, tantalizing her palette. I've seen the way she looks when someone brings Tuvix onboard. Like a woman possessed.
I'm not saying she didn't think it was a delicious roast, I'm just saying it was nowhere near strong enough for the first coffee of the morning.
It's more of a last coffee right before you lay down to sleep sort of coffee.
I see what you're saying. Something that takes the edge off at the end of a stressful day of hard decisions about your crew would still be very powerful though. Like a weighted blanket of Vulcan clarity and calmness and that satisfied feeling like you just finished your favorite home cooked meal.
Tastiness changes erryone's minds 😋
What's in raktajino, anyway? It's not caffeine; there are plenty of high-caffeine drinks - hell, I can make an awful-tasting, but high-caffeine espresso with what I have set up at home. And you can pretty easily consume enough caffeine to kill you; it is toxic, we just don't consume it at high enough concentrations.
I have the same question about Romulan Ale. Everclear is 190 proof - 95% ABV. You can go to a liquor store today and buy almost pure alcohol. It's nasty, but you can't get any more than 100% alcohol, and Everclear is pretty close. So what is the stimulant in Romulan Ale, b/c it probably isn't alcohol.
Why can it not be caffeine? I don't understand the reasoning behind that. Raktajino might be just another high-caffeine drink with a special taste.
Because it's always presented as being super-coffee, chemically. Good coffee is good coffee, but there's no universally great brewing method that always produces superior coffee. You can make bad pour-over, bad espresso, bad American, bad cold brew. But all Raktajino is apparently incredible and strong. I can make 8 shots of espresso, put it in a cup, and it'll taste strong and maybe give you heart palpitations by the time you finish it. But it won't be necessarily good. And it might not even taste as good as espresso made by James Hoffman.
The more I think about it, the more I think the key molecule in Raktajino isn't caffeine. It's probably something like amphetamines.
It’s like the lemonade at Panera.

Yee hot cuppa of 'jino and the reports... That's what former resistance fighters love in the morning

Lol, Kira probably grew up on the stuff.
Those eyes remind me of Monty Python's Complete Waste Of Time
Oh fuck, Terry Gilliam's cutout animations were terrifying sometimes
May the Prophets forgive you my child for linking this image 🪄
All of Star Trek are just ancient tales and myths told by space prophets and galactic mystics hallucinating under the influence of Raktajino.
janeway one prob comes after the "year of hell" 💀
One thing that never made sense about Year of Hell.
If breaking the equipment reset the timeline... Wouldn't the timeline eventually reset at some point anyway? Like... Nothing lasts forever, so eventually it would have broken, either through accident, damage, or just entropy. So... Wouldn't the timeline just reset no matter what they did?
Anorax’s ship existed outside normal time and space. The ship would have lasted forever with Anorax continually tweaking the timeline if Kathy hadn’t done her thing.
Stop asking questions. This is Voyager. They pressed the big reset button.
Naomi Wildman, you will desist making sense
