Oh my fav bagel.
I only did pizza for nine years, but after that (relatively) short time I got so used to the feel of dough that I could judge temperatures within two degrees by hand, nail weights without a scale, and get a full pie from phone to oven in twenty seconds.

Veteran photographer Michael Nigro was shot in the head with a non-lethal bullet while covering anti-ICE protests in LA. "It felt very very intentional," Nigro tells NPR, "a chilling effect to convince us to go away."
Other reporters say they have been targeted too.

Kindness isn't weak; it is strong. Kindness still punches out Nazis, but it also focuses on helping, sharing, protecting and advising. Kindness speaks for those without voices, houses those without shelter, shares with those without food. Kindness is resistance.
I know this sounds weak, I know it.
But kindness is one of the few things we carry that can make a difference for each other.
We can’t undo all this hate, but we can still make life a little easier for others.
