Lots of good video tutorials on YouTube. Once you know the procedure, you can iron a buttoned shirt in about 3 minutes (but you don’t have to; take your time). I find it very satisfying.

Irons are one of those things that you can spend as much money as you want to on. A cheap one will do the job, just make sure it has a water reservoir for steam. Get an ironing board with a narrow (pointed) end. After that, it’s mostly technique that makes the difference. Practice!

Qapla’!

On hold for a half hour now 😡

On hold with GEICO trying to get a form sent to the BMV. They want me to talk to their AI chat agent 𝘴𝘰 𝘣𝘢𝘥, but the AI can’t help me with this particular thing, gotta talk to a person. We’re living in the world’s most boring cyberpunk dystopia.
