You’re fighting against wealth extraction from the poor. I’m fighting against poor extraction from the coffee pot. We are not the same 😭

I just performer the equivalent of brain surgery on a moka pot I forgot to put water in only to have the latecomer water shoot through the chamber at supersonic speed resulting in the most disappointing “coffee” ever
