Addendum
I just checked the Top Chef Tumblr tag, and I feel the need to disassociate myself from everyone I see there hating on Sarah.
I didn’t love her, no, but she was an excellent chef, too, nearly as strong and consistent as Paul, and if she had won for the meal she presented on tonight’s episode, it would have been well deserved.
That is all.

So, Top Chef
Does anyone else watch this show? I don’t know how it is that I’ve given up practically all other broadcast television except for this, but nine seasons later and I still keep tuning in.
I called Paul’s victory approximately two months ago, so it’s not as though this outcome was all that surprising. But it was nice to see both chefs in the finale actually put out strong...

tarysande asked: You remind me of Wynne. Um, which I mean in a Wynne is amazing way. You seem calm, and knowledgeable, and wise, to me. So. Wynne. In my head. Totally without being an old-lady-with-a-touch-of-maybe-abominationitis.

Yes, this was the source of my tumblr rage yesterday D:
I thought it might have been, when I got to that part. It was just… epic sadness. Why?

Is an amazingly emotional episode. Avery Brooks is wonderful in this ep, and most folks are out of make up.
that episode makes me cry
Second-favorite hour of television of all time.

Oh Edward. :(
I actually had a bad feeling about Henry from the moment that horse fell on him. It seemed entirely likely that he was being spared from riding to war in order to suffer a much more horrible fate. So I was sad when he died, especially for...

I keep seeing this argument from homophobic representatives that children should be sheltered from portrayals of gay romance because it’s ‘too complicated’ of a topic for them to understand. Every time I see it I’m reminded of a story.

Auuugh
Students have, from time to time, asked me for super glue, and I have always resisted. For what I think are obvious reasons. But last night I needed to glue the rings of a three-ring binder together (long story), so I bought a tube at the student store and, after a lengthy reminder to my student worker about safety, storage, etc., I handed it over for her to finish the project and left for the...
Happy Leap Day!

Fenris, Varric and a bottle of ale for lifeofkj
sehnsuchttraum:
“What, you’re too busy brooding to have a proper drink? That expensive stuff you drink will rot your guts, take my word on it.”
Varric plunked the bottle down on Fenris’ cluttered table, sweeping aside papers and playing cards to make a place for himself.
“I didn’t invite you sit down, Dwarf. In fact, I don’t recall that I invited you at all.” Fenris shot back at him with a...

I like Lucy Liu, and I’m pleased they’re casting a WOC as Watson because TV NEVER does that, but I’m worried they’re just doing this so they can slap them together while avoiding homoeroticism or, heaven forbid, gay people.

in my experience network television rarely ever shies away from homoerotic subtext between two white male...

I’m still watching the moderator comments on the Jennifer Hepler thread on BSN. This is probably the best one yet. Stanley Woo has no more fucks to give.
