Reposting this thread from Twitter so I can continue it by the next episode. A haiku for each episode of the original version of #Taskmaster . If you find this annoying blame those who encouraged it.
Found out the cafe from Fried Green Tomatoes is 1) real and 2) on my route between Kentucky and Florida

Saw a candle I wanted, saw it was $50, felt like I was in a dril tweet. Is $50 a standard candle price in 2025, I’m out of the candle game

Also, Hegseth is coming for Sen. Mark Kelly because he reminded troops that they have a duty not to commit crimes *like this one*

Making an appropriately big deal out of this blunts that attack and demonstrates the need for what Kelly and company did.

I was talking to my grandmother yesterday and she was telling me about how when kids in her class turned 16 they started driving the school bus and bringing everyone else. It’s a miracle my family line survives

"This sowing of mistrust in our relationship with media is... a huge effect of this synthetic media moment we’re in..."

“I’ve been thinking about ways to refuse it, and the simplest, dumbest way to do that is to only search before 2022.”

Something to try out and be thankful for this year!

hearing Osgood Perkins tell Brett Goldstein that Johnny Knoxville is the greatest American entertainer was a gift to me personally

I try not to engage with rage bait but honestly it’s nice to have everyone mad at a list of comedy movies instead of at the imminent collapse of society
The movie listed at #1 is so incredibly misplaced that it calls into question the veracity of the entire list. It belongs on the list, yes, but SO MUCH further down. An absolute, credibility-wrecking flub. Boo, @variety.com! Boo!

The Warrens were likely awful people and the Conjuring franchise lost its spark several installments ago but Vera Farmiga and Patrick Wilson are so charming it’s still easy to watch them even when they’re not given much to work with

I’ve said this before but film distributors that leave long gaps between releasing in different countries are murdering their box office draw. I love to support cinema but the average person isn’t going to spend $25 to see something they could have watched online three months ago.

Mamdani is charming and everything but the only thing I can grasp at to explain that meeting is that no one has ever acted like a normal person around Trump so he found that in itself so novel and incredible he got heart-eyes
