IQ-fluid

IQ-fluid (adj.): Describing a person whose effective intelligence and cognitive performance fluctuate significantly over extended periods of time — typically weeks, months, or longer — rather than just day-to-day. During high phases, they display very high-IQ traits like sharp reasoning, creativity, quick learning, and strong problem-solving. In low phases, performance drops noticeably with brain fog, slower thinking, and poorer decision-making.

These longer-term shifts can be influenced by nootropics, supplements, lifestyle changes, hormones, stress, mental health, or environmental factors. The term highlights real cognitive variability that traditional IQ tests (designed to measure stable traits) often don't capture.
"I've been super IQ-fluid this year — crushed a programming project in hyperfocus mode for two months, then spent the next month struggling to remember basic stuff after I stopped my nootropics stack."

"He's not inconsistent, he's just IQ-fluid. Give him the right supplements and sleep cycle, and he'll out-think everyone; mess that up and he forgets where he parked his car."

"A lot of people in biohacking communities are proudly IQ-fluid — they track their stacks and habits to ride the high phases and minimize the lows."

Deniable plausibility

Deniable plausibility is a variant or twist on plausible deniability. It describes a situation where someone can claim ignorance or non-involvement in a controversial or offensive act, and their explanation is technically believable enough to be plausible — even if many people suspect it's not the full truth. The key is that the setup (timing, delegation, partial attention, etc.) creates just enough room for the denial to sound realistic on the surface, without hard proof that it’s a lie.
It’s often used when the controversial part is hidden at the end, buried in details, or handled by subordinates, so the person can say “I didn’t see/know that part” and it remains deniable in a way that feels somewhat plausible to supporters or neutral observers.
1- Trump example
When Trump shared the video that ended with Barack and Michelle Obama depicted as dancing apes, he later claimed he only watched the first part about voter fraud and didn’t see the racist ending — a textbook case of deniable plausibility that let him distance himself from the offensive content while still spreading it.

2- Corporate example
The marketing director approved the ad campaign after skimming the presentation, missing the highly offensive joke hidden on the last slide; this gave her perfect deniable plausibility when customers complained, allowing her to say “I never saw that part” with a straight face.

3- Social media example
She reposted a long thread criticizing a public figure, not realizing the final reply contained blatant antisemitic tropes; the setup created strong deniable plausibility, so when called out she could truthfully reply “I didn’t read the whole thread” and many followers accepted it.
