I didn't notice
A possible new iron? I've been looking for a new iron that lacks an auto-off "feature" for quite a while. This one does have an auto-off, but it's half an hour instead of the usual eight to ten minutes for most irons, which is beyond annoying for sewing projects. It comes highly recommended by sewists and quilters, so that's nice, too.
This is a really good quote, and something I remind myself about whenever I start to feel hurt when someone says something about White People. Although that happens less and less. These days I'm more like yeah, man, white people.
Oh my god, this gifset of Stephen Colbert reading Anthony Weiner's sexts.
Last night![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
mckitterick and I went to see Max Brooks at the KU Student Union. It was...fine. I had no idea what to expect, which I think didn't help. I wasn't sure if he was going to talk or read from his books or what. What he did was sort of a stand-up routine with a Q&A session at the end. I'm not a big fan of stand-up, so that didn't help my enjoyment, but it was...fine. I disagreed with some of the statements on which he based his jokes, and that didn't help. But it was...fine. The best part of the evening for me was being in the same room as Mel Brooks's son. As we were leaving, some friends we'd sat with mentioned that they didn't expect him to be such an asshole. "He was an asshole?" I asked. Turns out he's the exact same kind of asshole that I am, so I didn't notice.
