it's time to start calling oil and coal and thing a new name. "fossil fuels" makes it sound like if you don't burn them it's a waste. "inflammable fossils", maybe, to get across that burning them is to be avoided at all costs?

I looked for tahini in the fridge but it wasn't where I thought. I did a thorough search, looked behind everything - nothing. Searched the rest of the kitchen - no joy. Took one last look in fridge just in case I was going crazy, to be confronted with this view. There is some kind of wormhole here.
