iirc charcoal (coal made from wood) was used first, then stonecoal, then oil
so it was a continuous transition. they didn't just wake up one day and started digging

This is the first I'm seeing "stonecoal" - is that what its really called?
idk in german it's called Steinkohle and Holzkohle, literally "stone coal" and "wood coal"
how would you call it then?
in english the rock kind is just "coal", and the wood kind is "charcoal"
Oil is sentient.
Real and straight.
we are addicted to foreign ichor of dead gods
like whale cum
we all do, but I'm this economy?
It's more like, hey, this stuff burns and we don't have to wring out a whale to get it!
The text is full of nonsense... But why not have a strong opinion based on feelings and spread it online? Works so well for humanity.
That is why I just harness the power of the sun, like a true god would.
