A lot of people describe certain words as a portmanteau of two other words, e.g. "fediverse is a portmanteau of federation and universe".
This of course assumes that everyone knows what "portmanteau" means.
Portmanteau is itself a portmanteau, derived from King Henry VIII's porter Manfield Touse, who invented a two compartment travelling chest for the king - Henry being known as a neat freak liked to keep his dirty underwear separate from his fresh underwear when travelling.

Portmanteau is itself a portmanteau, combining port, from the Latin "portus" (harbour), and "manteau", a type of cloak.
In olden times, children of dockworkers would sneak into taverns by stacking themselves under one of these cloaks, pretending to be a tall adult.
Because it'll probably be relevant to some people in the very near future, I'd like to call attention to the fact that you can't livestream on #YouTube without first meeting some bullshit criteria about creating some number of "Shorts" *and* what short of engagement they get.
@zzclaybourne Thank you for this gift. Soup is a food group in my household, but I didn't know that soup could remake gods. #TheMoreYouKnow
Alrighty then kids, it's super happy #FunWithInformation time! The tool on the end of the valve stem is a valve core service tool. You can obtain one at any automotive parts supplier. You'll see one of these sticking out of pretty much any tire anywhere. Just the stem not the tool.

Portmanteau is actually a combination of "portman" and "tow", from the Norman "teau".
In olden times, the portman would stand on an oared tugboat and tow boats into harbour two at a time, with a rope over each shoulder.
You approving every single follower (and thereby disallowing me to immediately assign you to a list) will make you end up in my home feed - which is an unconsumable mess. I will still follow you, but never actually see you again.

Just a reminder that the 'A' in 'AI' stands for:
Artificial - Insincere; fake, forced or feigned. Not natural or normal: imposed arbitrarily or without regard to the specifics or normal circumstances of a person, a situation, etc.
It's literally NO intelligence. It can't think. It's a toaster that talks based on the things it recorded.

"Catbus, how much of a rip-off are jarred spices, actually?" I'm glad you asked! Just refilled this with lovely fresh organic cumin from the co-op for $1.71, compared to a smaller jar of dusty stale cumin from the supermarket for $7 #themoreyouknow
