coaster
Glass sits here
A coaster is a small mat placed under a glass or cup to protect the surface beneath from moisture or heat.
The word extends to things that coast: a roller coaster, a ship engaged in coastal trade, or a sled for coasting downhill.
In casual use, someone coasting through life—expending minimal effort—might be called a coaster.
