work cafeteria is getting weird with pride month inclusion but like ok i guess

this is an appreciation post for when you pour cold milk into cold coffee and the two of them spiral around each other and don’t immediately combine all the way at first and you’re watching the dark brown-black of the coffee and pale tan of the milk (which is now only tan and not white because it touched the coffee in the first place!) make elegant swirly shapes of color and temperature until they settle into their new united state
she’s beautiful and she tastes rly good too
🎵 I had some dreams they were clouds in my coffee, clouds in my coffee

In moments like this I always fall back on the fact that they also aren’t speaking English because they don’t have England or the many languages and conquering peoples that contributed to the creation of the English language and therefore the work musr be a translation into recognizable terms in our world’s terms. Call that Tolkien Brainrot.
Definitely funnier if you make fantasy explanations though,
Champagne is a wizard who sells bubbly alcohol.
It’s called English because of the original Lish people, all languages start with En here.
French fries are not potatoes they’re roots of the french plant.
Goodbye is now short for ‘good be your eye’ wishing you luck seeing the path ahead.
Jesus Christ is a long dead lich who used to cause everyone problems and we haven’t stopped saying her name when things go wrong.
And that’s the Pratchett approach

no, they actually do mean kites
as in, a loooooooooong piece of steel cable with the sail at the end of it
of course it’s ~basically a sailing ship~ but you can’t stick masts on a container ship, that is a disaster waiting to happen for so many reasons
you’d only really get one point to anchor the mast, and that is right where it meets the deck, the containers get it the way of any ropes you might wish to use further up
you’d have to build entirely new container ships or some sort of … mast container frame to account for the fact that the ships are built to exactly fit the containers, and sticking a mast in the middle of it will mess with that entire system by not being the size of a container
loading and unloading around the masts is going to be hell for the crane drivers and there will be damage to everything given the speed they usually work with, so every harbor will hate you if their cranes even have the height to work around the masts
and if you still decide to stick masts on a container ship, they won’t be easily and quickly removeable, so you have to recertify and reclassify the entire ship, and it’s going to take ages and ages to do properly, and they’ll have to figure out how to do it so it’s either expensive as fuck or they may refuse entirely. a steel cable on a winch is by definition removeable (that is, uh, uprollable?) so you don’t have to deal with any of this nonsense. hell, if you calculate the pre-determined breaking point properly, it’ll even fail safely
this isn’t ~ooooooooooh we invented sails! we’re the smartest~
this is “hey, we finally figured out how to do this tried and tested thing in a way that works with the circumstances we’re working under”. it’s a good thing, even if it is presented badly
Thank-you for that info ^ because this is very heartening then. Transport really is so awful rn in what it’s doing to our atmosphere. Looked this up and this is actually a really neat prospect for the planet if it gets implemented.
oh that is very cool actually!! i fully retract my reactionary bullshit meme in favor of the new information, thank you :D

Ok but like actually DNI if you support the death penalty. Yes there are people who deserve to die for their crimes. No there isn’t a court in existence that should be given the power to decide who those people are
Especially the court of public opinion.
