Boil a big pot of water with about 10 g salt per litre. Cook the spaghetti 1 min less than the packet says (usually 8–9 min). 2. Meanwhile put oil + garlic in a cold pan, then medium-low heat for 3–4 min till the garlic is just pale golden. Add chili flakes for the last 30 sec. 3. Save a mug of pasta water (~150 ml) before draining. 4. Tip the pasta into the pan with ~100 ml of that water and toss over medium heat 1–2 min till it goes glossy and saucy. Add more water if it looks dry. 5. Parsley in, taste for salt, parmesan on top if you want. tip: dont let the garlic go brown, it turns bitter. and please dont overcook the pasta lol if you make it send me a pic of your plate

Dune by Frank Herbert, summed up: A teenage boy's family gets handed the most valuable planet in the universe. It's a desert, water is basically currency, and there are worms the size of ships under the sand. Spoiler: the gift was a trap. The movies look amazing, but the book does the politics way better. Fair warning though, the first 100 pages feel like homework. Push through.
