In this year of grievance, two old articles bemoaning fathers getting short shrift:

• Daddy issues: the problem with Father’s Day
• The dark side of Father’s Day: Sorry for the downer, but it’s time to look honestly about how many men get short shrift in parenting

So why am I doing all the work? Up at dawn to start the pit.. trim the brisket, get it on. Now I have to shower and go pick up Peach Truck peaches - 25 lbs pf the most fantastic fruit ever.

There is my injustice in this.
Consider organizing a Million Fathers March to air yours and all fathers' grievances.

Even the haters and losers, isn't that sweet?

At least it might pass for sweet in NY.

@jon-nyc Regarding that tweet above: it's kind of bemusing that those who are building the relentless dementia storm against Biden can read that tweet and see nothing insane abnormal for a head of state to post.

Because you are getting to drink beer and play with fire?
