Anya Taylor-Joy takes on ‘iconic’ role for ‘Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga’

We’re all ‘Mad’ for Anya

Photos of Anya Taylor-Joy’s assorted parts ha🎐ve now suddenly bobbled everywhere. And everyone’s had joy seeing almost all of Anya Taylor-Joy’s joy.

She’s now road-running in “Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga,”🥀 whi෴ch is an Aussie Outback with Chris Hemsworth whose many assorted parts we’ve already seen.

Directo꧂r George Miller: “Anya can do anything. Difficult role. The character is iconic. And Hemsworth is a showman marauder across the wasteland like Genghis Khan. They’re like ‘Westerns on wheels.’ ”

Yeah,🔯 OK. Go see this largest thing the country’s ever ground out. Hop a Harley.


Raising the bar

Grab a bus that’s chugging East. Avoid the new lifeguards and aging sharks.

Schlep to Shelter Island’s Ram’s Head Inn. Order a vodka. But know that 🤡itsಌ warm summertime room temperature vodka tab now comes with a separate charge — another bill.

It arrives at the same time — ex🌳tra, additional. It’s for the ice. A♉nd the twist!

The br🧜ead’s still free. Not yet clear on whether you have to rent the t🎶able.


Roominating

Another of our area’s charms: This from one o🐻f our major Realtors. Right now there’s 40,000 (that’s the actual number) unused empty NYC apartments.

Also, per 🌺some lawmaker ruling, you cannot dislodge a stranger squatter. Even one you never met, didn’t invite, don’t want.

Our courts are clogged. To remove a squatter can take forever. Besides expe💎nse — you can also lose the case. Recouping that financial layout? Forget it.

To update and rent theꦛ place? Costly to modify a longtime unrepaired space. Fixing’s endless. So’s recouping that expenditure.

Thus, despite homelessness, migrants and squatters, 40,000 stay empty. And wh🌺ile others pay staggering rents, NYC squatters squat free.


Call ’n’ response

Another business story: Jeff Bez♍os grouped together his execs. All held official reports showing their Help Desk took — on averag꧒e — only three rings to answer.

So in front of them all, he put 🍨the phone on s💜peaker and called the Help Desk. Took 10 minutes to answer.

Case closed. Not closed — said one of our world’s෴ most successful business leaders as he related this.

And these are Bꦕezos’ words echoed by the person relating the story: “Gossip is a most important function in today’s world.”

Added: “Jeff Bezos is a🍬 brilliant businessman.” Omitted was that for 10ꦫ0% I must be too, because I deal in gossip.


Family dining

1959, I visited Delmonico’s. Besides🅠 steak it had Rockefellers, Vanderbiꦉlts, a Whitney or two, and a few pounds of du Ponts.

This week it was Delmonico relative꧅ Max Tucci’s Tucci in Noho,ᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚ which grabs Tischs, Clive Davis, a Cardi B or two and a few pounds of the city’s elite mixed with nostalgia.

Try it.𒀰 You’ll lo♎ve it. And everyone — clothed. Nothing hung out except what was on the plate.


Rumor. It’s warming up between the royals in Britain. Meghan Markle sent word for Camilla t꧟o knock off the formalit🐻ies and that Her Majesty the Queen no longer needs to curtsy to her.

Only in London, kids, only in London.
