/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.

Jawa21, are you from Canadia? Omg poutine is amazing, it's like the next natural evolutionary step of the fried potato. Has to have cheese curds, I've learned. I've had it with regular cheese before, and is that sacrilege? It tastes like sacrilege to me. Anyway yes fricken poutine is amaaaazing
Poutine with regular cheese is like making wine with Welch's grapefruit juice. It gets the job done, it's cheap but it tastes like prune juice.
Good Canadian poutine is with passable cheese curds and a cheaply made gravy from a box
True peak gourmet poutine is a Quebecois Poutine with rich cheese curds, heavy hot flavorful homemade beef gravy with fresh cut potatoes thickly sliced and fried to a golden brown.
Oh god .... I haven't had a good Quebec Poutine since last summer!!!
Oh wow, homemade gravy sounds awesome. I'm eating Oreos before bed, and like, now all I want is gourmet poutine lol
If your poutine "tastes like prune juice", you're doing so many things wrong from the start. 👀
Also, Quebecer poutine is the superior version, even though it's the modern evolution of a long line. Thankfully, it's better than its forebears — unlike the old fashioned, which finds it's legacy skullfucked in broad daylight in Wisconsin with the addition of multiple fruits and a glass full of crushed ice & soda. Fuckin' hell.
Nah, I'm actually from just a bit north of Atlanta. However, I watch a lot of Canadian media - mainly thanks to LoadingReadyRun. I finally had poutine here about 2 years ago. It took more effort than it sounds like because cheese curds are not easily come by here, and when you find them they're expensive.
Ah yeah, I can imagine it gets pricey depending on where you are in relation to the nearest local cheese curd makers. I'm pretty lucky, I can take a short drive to Wisconsin if I wanna stock up. It's crazy, like, once you cross the border, even at the gas stations there's so much cheese. So much cheese. It's everywhere!
You can't stock up on cheese curds, though. They lose their squeak after a couple of days. If you freeze them, they lose their squeak immediately. The best part of cheese curds are the squeek.
I'm in Minneapolis, not far from WI, and it's a crap shoot whether you're getting the real deal, or some unsqeaky fading flower. I mean, old curds are still good, they're just not great.
