you can say "chimoora" instead of "cow of tailed snake" if you want. its a good pun.
i ramble about aerospace sometimes
I take rocket photos and you can see them @aWildLupi
I have a terminal case of bovine pungiform encephalopathy, the bovine puns are cowmpulsory
they/them/moo where "moo" stands in for "you" or where it's funny, like "how are moo today, Lupi?" or "dancing with mooself"

this is also when the citizens of chicago found out that the morton salt factory is less a "factory" and more a "really confusingly huge pile of salt"
Is the most hilariously apt thing to be plastered on the side of a building where this event has occurred
I do remember wondering why they just had a big finished factory room full of salt
i am loosely aware of the fact that salt is mined and not produced like a chemical in factories and then bagged up, but this really drives that home
I’ll see your molten salt reactor and raise you a nuclear salt water rocket: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nuclear_salt-water_rocket?wprov=sfti1
"In many ways NSWRs combine the advantages of fission reactors and fission bombs" is maybe the most batshit sentence I've ever seen make it past the wiki editors
Wikipedia calls it a storage facility, not a factory, but that really does make me wonder...how DO they produce this salt? Like, it's apparently chemically treated to make it clump up less, too
