I was joining the crew of a ship that I had worked on before. When I met the mate in the tender to bring me aboard I requested to be moved into a specific cabin (to avoid being put in the one that shares a bulkhead with the engine room water tight door which is clanged loudly every half hour for safety checks). That cabin was already occupied by my future wife.
I really don’t want to be a prescriptivist pedant but it’s going to be tough to let go of “reactionary”
This reminds me of the trend back inthe day of raising kittens inside a glass jars so their bodies would conform to it like those square watermelons. They were called Bonsai kittens
If you have room to stock up they’ll keep for months, I still have a squash or two from our last summer harvest.
