[S] Several years ago: moved to the country. This week...

Wide shot of a lovely peach tree with little blushing orange spots...

Oh ho! Those are peaches on the limb! How many? Millions, perhaps.

Freshly picked and washed peaches, lovingly arrayed in quart container.

Dare I eat a peach? Perhaps this one, thereby saving it from the fate of being put in a can, by a man, in a factory downtown?

... you bet your sweet 🍑 I did!

[P] First of all, fuck you for putting this back into my brain. Second: the sleeve art for the Italian single release back in 1977 would have scared me when I was seven

[P] Kudos to the venue of last night’s Adventure Zone book release event for procuring *everything* on our hospitality rider, including the shower cuck chair

[P] From Peek’s section lamenting the Mandan administration’s omission of Little Italy from a map of ethnic neighborhoods. Friendo, I don’t thing this is the “why the neighborhood and its Italian heritage should be celebrated” selling point you seem to think it is:

From the article:

In May, Mamdani’s administration released a map meant to celebrate the ethnic diversity of the city and its immigrant roots. The chart included Little Palestine and Little Pakistan but omitted Little Italy, one of the best-known neighborhoods in Manhattan. The map included Little Mexico, Little Guyana and Little Bhod-Tibet, but failed to recognize well known Irish enclaves like Woodlawn and Sunnyside. Not surprisingly, the map omitted Jewish neighborhoods.

Italians were offended, and rightly so. Little Italy was established by immigrants in the 19th century and has long been a tourist mecca, featuring iconic restaurants like Umberto’s Clam House on Mulberry Street. Umberto’s is famous not just for its seafood, but also because it was the site of a mob hit in which Joseph “Crazy Joe” Gallo was shot in broad daylight.

Arrested Development meme of Tobias and Lindsay:

"Well, did it work out for those people?"
"No, it never does. I mean, these people somehow delide themselves into thinking it might but..."
"but it might work for us."

[P] Each July 4th I like to pause and reflect on how @pftompkins.bsky.social had a bespoke jacket made to match the one worn by Amity Mayor Larry Vaughn (Murray Hamilton) in JAWS, and that fact never fails to warm my heart. I don’t have any pics of PFT’s jacket, alas, but here’s Mayor Vaughn:

[P] From a Bulwark newsletter by @willsommer.bsky.social about infighting at Michael Flynn's "America Future" nonprofit that includes Flynn's niece and nephew. This passage about Edward Hall (the nephew) sticks in the shiv and twists it before breaking off the handle:
