    Oh Hell no, I don’t push the button!

    It said shifting into the Star Trek universe; it didn’t say anything about time travel or ending up on a planet other than Earth.

        World War III ends and Earth is left devastated, mostly because of nuclear warfare. Most of the major cities are left in ruins with few remaining governments and the death total reaching 600 million.

        https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timeline_of_Star_Trek

        Push the button. Only 600 million is a generous offer. This timeline will have many more.

      The 40k timeline is basically just normal Earth for a few more centuries at least. The Emperor is just out there, somewhere, fucking with shit.

      In fact, there would be a golden age on the horizon

          It’s basically Star Trek for like a millennium or so if I recall. Things didn’t always suck so hard in 40k, it took a while for it to become the grimdark hell it is in the 42nd century

    That’s a 90% chance I get to see a better future and a 10% I’m still stuck in hell. Yes please deliver button. I do not want to remain here to see what is coming either way. I will take those odds happily. So very very tired of living in America. I hope we are heading for Star Trek still but we have to go through World War 3 to get there. Might be Dune though.

    When talking about the Star Trek universe, it’s important to designate both what time and which one.

    Before first contact in any universe? No.

    Prime universe? Sure.

    Kelvin? Sure, why not?

    Mirror universe? No.

    Totally-not-the-mirror-universe-from-Picard? Fuck no.

          Right? 2025 on Earth still existed in Star Trek. There’s a non-zero chance you press the button and nothing happens… So you think it didn’t work and push it again only to end up with the BDSM elves…

        There are fates worse than death in the 40k universe, like being captured by the dark eldar. If I can take a method of suicide with me, then maybe (though even then, my soul is going to end up in the immaterium).
