For her 65th, I made my sister an end grain cutting board from spalted poplar harvested on our property. Fancy and beautiful! But my daily driver is a 30-year old board from Ikea and I also have a couple that are just off-cuts of 1x6's that I had from other projects. 😀

Hey y’all remember @indivisiblecville.bsky.social’s “3 for 3” campaign? Where we chose 3 HoD candidates and asked people to volunteer for the campaigns, with postcards, phone banking, and donations?

I was not the only one who woke up to the news of Dick Cheney’s death. Spencer Ackerman did too @attackerman.bsky.social; historian of the War on Terror—if you are not following him, remedy that NOW).

But HE wrote an obituary which The Nation published. Here’s the headline:

Serendipity! I was just finishing Even Greater Mistakes when my hold on Automatic Noodle finally came through! Loved both books, particularly Noodle (Thought of Long Way to a Small Angry Planet, cozy AF). Will be gifting this season. @charliejane.bsky.social @annaleen.bsky.social 🪐📚

That’s what the hell I’m talking about, literally exactly what I said. Anger issues much?

It is a true shame that this late-season sea holly has nobody wanting to dance with her 🌱

Went out to the garden to harvest tomatoes for dinner and found this partly-eaten quite fermented pawpaw. Where’d it come from? We have a two-wire electric fence around the garden and no overhanging trees… (about 2” long) 🌱

Pizza! Peach and goat Brie drizzled with hot honey (with arugula as desired) and Napoletana. Excellent crust, nice spotting, really both were quite good.

Panzanella (Serious Eats recipe): tomatoes, garlic, shallot and basil from the garden. I don’t know that there is a better summer dinner.

Right?! All that talk about “racial” differences in humans is cast in a different light.

So I’m reading John Ganz’s book (on several lists as one of the best books of 2024) When the Clock Broke, and on p. 350 there’s this gem 😂
