It's a Jambo Safari!

What if Boulton Paul Defiant, but worse?

Combing through the streets of Edinburgh for drunks spilling out of purple football tops is it?

Agentic, as in "people talk a good game about the amazing work they'll be able to do, but nobody's been able to get men to work properly yet"

He didn't really read it because someone had a laser pointer

Ach, they put the recipes on the page, but they also put some personal anecdotes with varying degrees of relevance to the recipe, because you can't copyright a recipe and because they're trying to generate engagement.

I'll let them chunter away while I scroll, in exchange for the free recipe

Angling for a discount on sushi

(I swear the "angling/sushi" pun was unintentional, but I'm keeping it)

They send one of yours to the hospital, you split them into three separate organisations, making it harder for the clergy to exploit the laity and cutting off the revenue hose to the higher ranking members, that's the Chicago Way

What is this, "how to stand near a chair"?

That ain't necessarily so my friend

I don't know what that means but I reckon the target chumps will pay more for it

Here is a thread of some wrestlers you may want to root for in the sumo. Please note it's absolutely personal, biased, and subjective, and that's the entire point. Find some guys you like for any whimsical reason you can hang it on.

Do end-grain ones!
It'll have no utility whatsoever in this application, but people are conditioned to pay more.

I thought by "the back of your hand is free" she meant "give a resounding backhand slap to anyone who considers buying this griftslop"

Been coming for a long time, they've been staying together for the sake of the kids

What a waste of money and effort and Dave Bautista, who can act

I hope they get terrible kidney stones and just before the specialist is about to help them with their horrible kidney stones she finds out about the cringe AI Christopher Reeve superman garbage and tells them to get the fuck out and keep suffering

Good news, you can get two for the price of a proper mech

(there used to be pillars to hold it up, but they spoiled the view - and obviously you can't get rid of the roof, on the dohyo that was designed to be outside in the first place, hence the gaps in the mats to let the rain out, and is now inside an indoor arena anyway)

For instance, sumo is a sport but it's kind of sort of also a Shinto ritual. That's why they ring is purified after it's constructed, and you'll see the rikishi scatter salt to drive evil from the ring, and why the seven ton roof suspended from the ceiling looks a bit like a Shinto shrine

I realise this would mean upturning your entire life to address one relatively small issue, but the standard fish supper up here is haddock, it's the other fish that are specialty items, so obviously you should move to Scotland

There's a small herd of Sumo Likers on here and if any of us see someone express even the vague hint of an interest we'll bury them in facts before they can fully understand the danger

We can tell you a fuckton about sumo, far far more than you'll need or even want to know

Posh Cow Area
(no oiks in Subarus with dodgy silencers, no loud bass, no beeping your horn, it'll ruin the cream)

Clown Zone
(do not stop for any reason, keep your windows up in case of buckets of glitter)

From the famous science fiction novel "For Fucks Sake Nobody Invent Ice-9"

A sausage and bean casserole, from which some of the water has deliberately been allowed to boil off for the last half hour, leaving a top layer of ever so slightly crispy beans

The sausage and beans on a plate: the beans look nice and moist but there's not much liquid, and we don't need a bowl

Not a cassoulet, just a sausage casserole with pretensions, but it's turned out cassoulesque and that'll do nicely.

It's the classic Bluesky history post:
