No one should be drinking it. It should be illegal to ingest, unless you are giving to your MIL

No, don't encourage it. It's deliberate.
I am half convinced this is the "anxiety-I-got-it-in-my-eye" poster, and that they just like to post things they know are ridiculous to stir people up. It's the very definition of trolling.
Where is this post? I was thinking it might be the lightly fried tuna poster. Tuna on toast would go nice with decaf coffee

Do you not understand the effect of the decaffeination process on coffee beans and the related disposal issues?
Omg thank you for this. I’m still laughing.

This is dcum. When leftover food or drink accumulates, we just buy a new house.

What color is the coffee, OP?

Did OP say if this was a decaf latte? No wonder she's worried.
More seriously, I had no idea about milk, and I wondered about the environmental piece given that it would go to the water treatment plant. Found this on a forum where this was being discussed:
The city where I live regularly reminds residents about grease and items like wipes ad tampons but has never mentioned pouring milk dow the drain, and this is probably why.
Although I just use sour milk for biscuits or waffles or something. Or if just slightly off I make ricotta.
More seriously, I had no idea about milk, and I wondered about the environmental piece given that it would go to the water treatment plant. Found this on a forum where this was being discussed:
Ex manufacturing chemist here - I think there are two issues: biochemical oxygen demand, and contamination of drinking water by animal products. The second one is not an issue for people pouring milk down the sink into the waste water because the waste water is treated and tested before it runs out to the sea or wherever. The first issue, of oxygen demand, is only an issue if a large volume of milk gets shoved down the sink - the oxygen demand is related to the amount of the stuff, it's not like a poison or anything where small amounts could cause problems. That's why there are rules for businesses and not for private homes. It's not just milk either, it's anything with a lot of edible stuff in it. Some colleagues in the lab next door to us got in trouble when the BOD of our water waste went up significantly one week, and they found out it was because they had disposed of about 100l of growing medium (basically sugary jelly) down the sink. You wouldn't think twice about washing a jelly down the sink, and you'd be right not to - it's the pouring of hundreds of litres that does the harm.

OP is undercaffeinated. You need a strong jolt of regular coffee. Then your brain will be able to figure this out.

Read the link, please.
Put milk in the trash for the incinerator or landfill.
That article is from the UK, their milk and systems are different.
And the article is for businesses not a household who’s throw half gallon of spoiled milk at most and definitely not op with her 1/2 cup of unfinished coffee.
Use your Google and learn that the UK article was a bit more in-depth about why it's an issue. It applies to houses in the US and to your spoiled half-gallon.

You are absolutely, 100% wrong. The sewage system in the UK is much more archaic than here in the US. Often it goes untreated into waterways. Literally just dumped in the rivers or the sea.
Our waste water if you live in a city goes to water treatment plants. The bacterial issues with milk are handled there. It's absolutely fine. That's why we can have garbage disposals for food in our sinks and they can't.
Sheesh
