This was taken from the church of San Michele in Bosco looking out over Bologna. The tower you can see there is the Asinelli tower - it was built sometime between 1109-1119.
Other important information about this area is that I saw a bat and it was very cute. 🦇✨

#ArtNouveau brooch,
by Henri Vever 1905
This devant de corsage (1905) is the work of Henri Vever. Its first owner was the first director of the Musée des Arts Décoratifs. In a letter, the jeweler explains that irregular Mississippi pearls were chosen to create the most realistic chrysanthemum blooms possible

From pink pussyhats to blue friendship bracelets, Tahirah Hairston writes for her newsletter, Ridiculous Little Things, about the limitations of using fashion to signify your values, and when a piece of clothing can really become a meaningful symbol, whether it's a red hat or a keffiyeh. "While there have been attempts to obscure the meaning of the keffiyeh — co-opted by hipsters in the early 2000s, on the runways in what fashion writers called 'terrorist chic' and even Carrie Bradshaw — the scarf can never truly be divorced from its original meaning because its roots are firm," she says. "Our appearance and what we wear has always mattered, but when we want that to say something politically there has to be more behind it — material action, peril, a solidified identity. Otherwise, you’re just speaking in contradictions."

"[...] and we were very merry; but I cannot down with their dull company and impertinent."

As always with Pepys, the omissions and grammatical idiosyncracies add weight to his point.

These guys are not nice to have around!

Either it was meant to be "impertinence", or, more likely, the "impertinent" was a qualifier for something else, perhaps "impertinent jokes"? Either way, having wasted an evening with these guys, Sam simply couldn't be bothered anymore.
