I've always loved the punk aesthetic, and I wish it would make a comeback.

/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 or fascism. This is a Star Trek community. Hating someone off of their race, culture, creed, sexuality, or identity is not remotely acceptable, neither is supporting people who actively want to kill those groups. 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.

MODERATORS
Thought of some kind of time travel scenario where they have to participate in a GG Allin concert but that might be better for Archer in a Quantum Leap type thing.
Damn, Bones.
(That there is Kirk Thatcher, who wrote and performed the punk song in the movie. He's also a prolific writer and director, having done a ton of stuff with The Muppets and Mystery Science Theater 3000.)
Points for TOS punk.
Unfortunately, minus points for AI generation.
That will be . . . eleventy points, please.
This was a meme from about 2 years ago, so I'm not certain it was AI generated back then, but I can't promise that.
Doubt the heads were, but the lettering on the clothes is textbook AI slop.
Besides, in that episode, McCoy had the mohawk.
Just looks like punk/metal fonts printed/embroidered on uneven surfaces. I am not getting an AI vibe at all
EDIT:
Knockoff or something of Kirk's jacket:
Logos on Kirk's jacket:

Logo on Spock's jacket:
Logo on Spock's shirt:
No, you're right - it looks like Spock's image is reversed for some reason, but on zooming in I can read everything on Kirk's so - yeah.
AI objections withdrawn. Full points restored.
As you were.
Ah, I can see how not realizing Spock was reversed might lead you to believe the text is AI.
None of that lettering looks AI generated. Which one are you talking about? I think it’s just a good photoshop. Look at Kirk’s shirt. It has really light lettering of “Slash” or maybe something else (hard to tell since his vest blocks the whole word) on a light background. I don’t think an AI could do that.
It's too old for good AI generation anyways. It's >2 years old.
You and I are of a kind. In a different reality, I could have called you friend.
Something something back at the academy, I...
Okay, now I can see how William Shatner was hot. It all clicked.
