Going at 1 am to the farmer's market to buy the secret fruits
let’s take this moment to appreciate just what korrasami was able to accomplish- how they paved the way for most, if not all of the animated queer rep we have now; how they managed to become canon in a time when same-sex marriage wasn’t even legalized yet. say what you will about them, but korra and asami made history and paved the way for bubbline, catradora, steven universe, benroy, lumity and much of what we have now and i will forever be grateful
Korrasami & Catradora, but switch the series
All hills are silent if you think about it

The standard British tea is English Breakfast Tea, sold by brands like Yorkshire Tea, and PG tips, or Barry’s if you’re Irish. It is NOT Earl Grey. In fact, it’s quite unusual for someone to actually drink Earl Grey. The two teas are not interchangeable.
If someone offers you a cup of tea, they mean English breakfast - if they have something other than English breakfast, they will specify. Most British households will keep teabags of English breakfast tea and instant coffee as standard (even if they personally don’t like it, it’s usually polite to keep it to offer to guests).
Having worked in a coffee shop, in my experience, it is only middle class people (and usually white women) who order Earl Grey teas, whereas English breakfast is far more universal. A ‘builder’s tea’ - aka a strong cup of English breakfast with very little milk - is commonly associated with working class men, but can equally be enjoyed by everyone (like me). If someone orders a black tea, this will usually mean an English breakfast tea without milk, as opposed to the type of tea. Making a weak cup of tea which has not been allowed to brew for long enough or which has too much milk will result in being mocked, and offering a weak tea to guests is very rude.
Along a similar vein, we do not have cream/creamer in our coffees here. For both tea and coffee, the usual options are milk, sugar, or sweeteners. I live in London and yet I’ve never even seen coffee creamer in the fridge of Tesco.
Of course, I am sure that there are people who prefer Earl Grey and keep it stocked in their homes. Equally, I’m sure there’s someone who went to America and now orders coffee creamer from Amazon or something, but that is the 0.01% of the population. Not the majority.
Yes, this is a weird reader pet peeve of mine because it really takes away from the realism of the story. So small and yet so telling😂
Thank you for reading my rant! If you have any more questions, please ask. Now go forth and write accurate Brits!
