    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?
