Real talk, do you chomp it raw like chips? Or do you like . . . suck on it until it softens??

I'm a ho for orecchiette, I just love how toothsome it is. Maybe not the absolute #1 for sauce retention but I'm all about that texture.

I have to recommend my #1 favorite focaccia recipe https://alexandracooks.com/2018/03/02/overnight-refrigerator-focaccia-best-focaccia/. It's super duper easy and basically foolproof, it just requires patience on the cold rise. I've never had any issues with it as long as the yeast is good and the water temp is right (~105-115f).

Absolutely this! Octavia Butler literally wrote a fascist American president with the slogan "Make America Great Again" in 1993.

I actually have a related question that I'm curious to hear takes on. I'm a leftist, and I own a 1-bed apartment where two good friends of mine rent the apartment right next door. Their landlord is planning to sell next year, and they don't have the ability to buy it. So depending on who does buy the place, my friends could be out of a home. My sister and I could combine finances to buy their unit (with a mortgage), and ensure that my friends could stay where they are. This would be a bit of a financial burden but doable, and we would need to charge rent to pay back the mortgage.

Would this be a net good or a net evil? I feel very conflicted about potentially being a landlord (especially for friends) but also don't want them to need to move.

I love how women "often" dying in childbirth is the ideal situation

Eem (Thai) and Gado Gado (Indonesian) are two personal favorites! Both have really delicious food and drinks.

The way this man goes from maniacally driven to bring the monster to life to immediately swooning with disgust and horror once he succeeded is wild. He truly refused to think about the consequences of his actions. Victor Frankenstein is a shortsighted coward. Justice for the wretch!

Per the article 'Four of the detained Americans have admitted they brought the ammunition — but by mistake.'
