I’m fascinated by “semantic fossils” that exist in the world

I.e. where we use a phrase / word like “hot off the press”, “floppy disk icon”, “riding shotgun” or “horsepower” but we don’t use a shotgun in cars anymore, or horses for measuring power or floppy disks anymore

One day, we’re going to be on another planet, and some kid who’s never been on earth is gonna wonder why some things are still measured in 365 days

These linguistic relics are a testament to our history, showing how language evolves yet holds on to its roots. They'll connect the future to our past, bridging worlds and time.
