I don’t think pottery can be repaired in a way that restores function. There are no epoxies or glues that can repair it and leave it food safe and able to store hot liquids for long periods. It’s just broken now.

If you’re struggling to let it go, then even if it’s finished its job as a food-safe mug, you can superglue (cyanoacrylate) it together and still use it ornamentally i.e. store pens, grow a little plant etc. I’ve got a little cluster of old mugs growing cactuses on the windowsill in the kitchen.
Good luck on finding a new mug that feels right.
Not me side eying my growing shelf of broken mugs holding my growing collection of wooden pencils, lol
