My family always used to crack a few eggs into the sauce as it cooked so there were some hard poached eggs mixed in. It was lucky if you got the egg.

In the '90s, I lived in Rome as a study abroad student, and today I'm an Italian language instructor based in Chicago; I return every other summer to brush up on my Italian and my dolce vita skills. So when I was invited to celebrate the summer solstice at a temple dedicated to Apollo with Association Pietas, a group of modern-day Romans dedicated to reviving the ancient religion of the Eternal City, I said yes in a heartbeat.

Honestly a slice of processed cheese on a slice of apple pie is great. I could see serving regular kraft dinner over apple pie.

There is unrest in the Galactic Senate. Several thousand solar systems have declared their intentions to leave the Republic.

This separatist movement, under the leadership of the mysterious Count Dooku, has made it difficult for the limited number of Jedi Knights to maintain peace and order in the galaxy.

I volunteer at the vote center near my home and they were definitely not expecting the turnout. They were keeping volunteer numbers super low. I think the in-person early voting options also weren't as expensive as they are for a regular election, at least here in Santa Clara.

β€œThis is replicable. [Mamdani’s] whole campaign was not just anti fascist, but the antithesis of fascism.”

@naomiaklein.bsky.social tells @mehdirhasan.bsky.social why she was an early supporter of Mamdani, who just made history as the first-ever Muslim mayor of New York.
