As they say in the asteroid belt: du walowda pensating fosh, du bera wang showxating efa. (think twice mail once) fit lik sabaka - a dog's breakfast of a feed, communication made of scattered impressions and desires (pejorative) fit lik kapawu - a shipshape feed, communication with everything in its place (laudative) fit lik sabaka - an amazing feed that was the highlight of one's voyage, so good one would even pay for a repeat (an encomium. highly informal, beware of context!) As an earthling, I tend to put way too many extraneous thoughts in my HN posts, but we're all on a planet under constant gravity, where we can just overlook anything uninteresting. A belter would edit far more, because there excess of any kind risks floating around dangerously when stationkeeping if not fatally during a flip and burn.
