Borani Banjan. Recipe from Maryam Jillani’s cookbook PAKISTAN. Best damn thing I’ve eaten in a long time. Fried eggplant, tomato sauce over yogurt. Which doesn’t even begin to convey what this tasted like.

Let’s not forget, the Mango in Chief is a Russian asset.

Every machine in a Hospital that diagnoses your body without cutting you open is based on a principle of Physics, discovered by a Physicist who had no interest in Medicine.
If you think the world doesn’t need Basic Science, or that somehow Science has failed you, think again.

And now the prevailing wisdom from Magnus and Hikaru is that Danya cracked over mother-effing Kramnik’s cheating accusations. Kramnik is scum. It was only a matter of time before his self-serving “crusade” led to casualties. I’m so pissed off.

I just found out that Grandmaster Daniel Naroditsky died unexpectedly yesterday, age 29. Danya was an amazing teacher, and his warmth and humanity was always on display. I never tire of watching his content. This is an enormous loss for the chess world.

I’ve had Klaus Nomi’s songs on repeat in my head for the past week. It breaks my heart that he died so young.

I’ve made my best sourdough yet, using starter from Captain Sourpants and the technique described in the Tartine recipe book. Look at that ear!
