i mean look, my sandcastle hasn’t fallen over yet. it only took me an afternoon to build. i can even go inside it! all these so-called “architects” whining and crying about “tides” and “erosion” (whatever that means) and taking years* to make “real” buildings should simply get good. i’m faster than them. skills issue

* you may think i’m exaggerating, but this is a real timeline that an architect told me about 🤦🏻‍♀️

when i told them about this, they laughed. i told them i wasn’t joking, and they looked at me like i was stupid. but at the end of the day, you have to look at the results. i have a magnificent sandcastle, and they just have a bunch of drawings on blue pieces of paper
well this is embarrassing. looks like it’s time to eat my words a bit. i sure ate a fair amount of sand. i got woken up in the middle of the night when my sandcastle collapsed. i was covered in wet sand from head to toe. who knew that a formidable looking castle could be so easily taken down by a few little waves? i’ve learned a lot from this incident. next time, i’ll build an even bigger sandcastle. but i’ll need quite a lot of sand—perhaps an entire beach’s worth of it
@exchgr you should try reinforcing the sand with something and maybe shielding the water side with something (piece of cardboard maybe?)
@loganer no thanks, i’m pretty sure i can get it working reliably only using sand. it’s a solid substance after all
@exchgr well... if you insist on using only sand, maybe you could use a bunch of heat to make the grains of sand stick together.
@loganer now there’s an idea

@exchgr

(you know I mean glass, right?)
anyways, good luck.

@loganer buddy, as long as it’s silicon
