Lesufism
Lesufism (noun)
When a politician or public figure makes sure they’re seen doing something — usually with cameras rolling — even if nothing changes afterwards.
Example:
> “The minister came, took photos, and left before anything was fixed. Classic Lesufism.”
Origin:
From Panyaza Lesufi, a South African politician known for being visibly present at every event. Used humorously to describe performative leadership — doing things for show, not results.
See also: Showboating, PR stunts, Mbalula moments, Bheki Cele vibes.

Shackteâu
A Shackteau is a humble, weather-beaten, structurally questionable shelter located in a spectacular or highly coveted place—Wales, Jackson Hole, Sun Valley, Crested Butte, coastal Maine, the Alps—where the building itself may be worth almost nothing, but the dirt, view, access, and mythology make it absurdly valuable.
