Coronaire

Someone who becomes a millionaire or billionaire during the coronavirus pandemic, who thrives when others could barely survive, as their products or services are in great demand.
Who are the coronaires? Those in the food and goods industries? Those whose businesses produce face masks, ventilators, and vaccines? Or those selling fake vaccine certificates?

π-Shaped Person

Someone with skills in “left brain” (math, data, analytics) and “right brain” (creative, intuitive, subconscious) disciplines—the horizontal line on the top stands for breadth of knowledge across domains, while the vertical lines represent two areas of depth knowledge.
Most math teachers are I-shaped; some are T-shaped (a generalist to a shallow level with a depth of skill in one field), and very few are π-shaped persons.

Trump Algebra

Equations that are derived from Donald J. Trump’s irrational or unethical logic, which generally defy conventional algebra rules. For example, based on the twice-impeached president’s collusion and insurrection, we could formulate the following counterintuitive relationships:
Republicans: “Two impeachment wrongs don’t make a right”—when (–) × (–) = (–).
Democrats: “Two impeachment rights do make a wrong”—when (+) × (+) = (–).
Trump algebra falls under what we call “negative math,” when it’s not axiomatically incorrect for the product of two positives to be a negative, or for the product of two negatives to be still a negative.

0%

The interest percentage of choice among billions of borrowers or buyers worldwide as banks and businesses turn them into debtors, who are being lured to go on credit for products or services they don’t have the means to pay for.
Free interest, or 0% interest, is a financial drug that has kept millions in debt in exchange for instant gain or future pain.

Figureoutable

When you have what it takes to figure anything out—the things you don’t know you know—and become the person your are divinely destined to be in spite of your present difficult situation or circumstances.
Everything is figureoutable unless you have let the doubters or naysayers talk you out of your dreams or life purposes, or you have agreed with the enemy that you can’t do anything else other than to accept your fate until your last heartbeat.

Covid-🦃

When desperately needed foreign workers trained to slaughter and process turkeys reared for Christmas are not allowed in the country unless they serve their 14-day quarantine on arrival, whose absence would affect producers with low supply and consumers with high price.
Thanks to Covid-🦃, a lucky percentage of the nine million turkeys in the UK would have their lives spared during this 2020 Christmas period.

Political Mask

When the wearing of a face mask has turned into a divisive political issue in a number of countries that protect their citizens’ individual rights, whose selfish behaviors in donning zero masks in public in the midst of a pandemic crisis endanger the health of the majority.
Alt-right politicians are pushing their political mask agenda, by pretending to address the anti-social demands of a noisy minority to win their votes.
