Thread of some of my favorite food I've made in the past year:

Chinese braised beef stew with daikon over white rice with garlic bok choy

Beef short ribs in burgundy with root vegetables and black trumpet mushrooms

Jamaican curry goat with boiled green banana, white yam and dumplings

General: Bad news, Pennywise. The Russkies are beating us in the clown race. They're developing their own clown. Code name Smirnov.

Pennywise [reading dossier] "In Soviet Russia, clown laughs at you." What is this shit?

General: They're laughing at America, Pennywise. They're laughing at Freedom.

Sorry I:

1. Keep reposting my October horror list because this site's threading is unusable after a certain point
2. Used the term "Spooktober" when I posted it and am now stuck with it (in my defense, I wanted a thing to call it that wasn't "Shocktober" which is way worse)

Accidentally got a selfie of the moment I heard a bunch of gunshots on my walk lol (and by a bunch I mean like, 15, not 2 or 3)

Selfie of Nigel paused with his mouth open listening to gunshots

remembering some awesome food you ate is one of the great pasttimes, imo.

goes double if it's something you cooked, which is why I now have a folder on my phone exclusively for pictures of food I made.

At first I was unsure if she would've kept at the "make yourself fart" task as long as Mike, but I also feel like she'd kind of just keep going probably

Yeah, this makes sense to me. She has the "okay, let's get on with it" vibe of Wozniak, but I can see her having similar reactions in scoring to Ania.

This was by far the hardest, because while I know the wrestlers, I haven't watched much English language wrestling in a while.

English language picks:

Orange Cassidy
Thekla
Willow Nightingale
Chris Brookes
Claudio Castagnoli

Sarah Kurchak @fodderfigure.bsky.social · 12d

This question is only going to appeal to a particularly nerdy middle of the Venn diagram, but what five wrestlers would you cast in a series of Taskmaster?
