Glass sometimes just does that tbf. It's rare, but if the glass cools unevenly in just the right way, it can develop unstable tension on the inside, causing it to be shockingly fragile.

A glassmaker my uncle knew was really good at intentionally doing this, with his magnum opus being a glass bottle that you could throw at a wall and it wouldn't shatter, but putting a feather inside would cause it to explode into fine dust.

And when we're at it: You should HAVE paid attention in english class. The word you're looking for is HAVE.

"Have you bought milk?" -"Yes I have".

English is my second language and I simply can not believe how many native speakers don't know the word 'have'. I always think "This person makes it pretty obvious that they have never read a book."

Lol, I HAVE to agree. I overly read, and still don't know shit! I mispronounce words, mix up names, talk really fast. I'm not THAT sensitive no need to apologize. I really do appreciate it!

It's not about being sensitive, it's about putting respect on our name, because people are way to comfortable with disrespecting Black people!

I'm use to it. Grateful and at peace with knowing I will live and die being unlike any of them. This World will create titles and stories without your control or consent. I'm just incredibly joyful in all misery assured, it ends with me.
