that's my bark to peel
The phrase "that's my bark to peel" refers to an artistic concept wherein an artist is to decide the meaning and content of their art. It can also be used in a similar way to "that's my axe to grind", meaning that it's your business to deal with.
"That's my bark to peel" as in "that's my art to create", "that's my bark to peel" as in "I dictate the meaning of my piece". In some ways this idiom can lie directly contrary to the artistic concept of The Death of the Author, a concept which has the viewer as the decider on the pieces meaning.
This idiom was created by Canadian writers Andy Zuliani and Cassie Mifflin based off Mifflin's short story "Cold Pudding and the Last Great Maritimer" wherein she included a line after her bark was stolen by artist Ruben Moller where she said "That's my bark to peel". Andy would then go on to coin the phrase's meaning while discussing her work and then further what that moment meant, telling her that "If a professor is ever making you tear apart your work more than you'd like, just tell them 'that's my bark to peel.'"

Success In Progress
This slang term coined in the 2020s has two different common uses.
It is mainly used in the context of an activity or goal that has not yet succeeded, but is fated to succeed and is currently in progress. A "success in progress".
Most often, the term is used in the romantic world when someone is fumbling major bitches but is in denial at how hard they're fumbling, saying the fumble is just a "success in progress". Usually not kissing someone you have pinned against the wall when they say you should have is a fumble, not a success in progress. But users of the phrase often use the term on these obvious fumbles, creating a sort of paradox between the actual meaning of the word and its most popular usage.

Rowling
A term coined in the 2020s by streamer RTGame, a rowling refers to someone you genuinely don't want to mention because you're so disapointed to even say their name (unspeakable disapointment).
The term in essence is used when you do not wish to say someones name. This could be for a variety of reasons but is meant to be used when the reason comes from a negative light. Some such reasons being immeasurable disappointment in their actions, hatred for who they are or have become, or a complete wish to not show the respect of speaking of them by name, instead calling them a rowling.
The etymology of the term comes from Joanne "JK" Rowling, whom many don't even want to mention due to her awful values in accordance with transgender folks along with her racism and utter stupidity in going from beloved childrens author, to widely known terf and bigot. The term comes about in comparison to the character in her books Voldemort, who most do not want to mention by name because of their fear of him, or in another context because they do not believe his name deserves to be said. Joanne became a rowling when she decided to show her true self in all her bigotry, making people hate her, or so disappointed in her that they do not want to even say her name.

Breaking Bad Flag
Breaking Bad Fans have their own flag so you can tell if someone loves breaking bad.
On the top and botton are light blue stripes representing the purpose of the whole project, blue meth.
Next going inward from the blue is two light pink stripes representing Jesse Pinkman, a major player in the operation.
And finally, a white stripe in the middle representing my man Walter White, the centre of the whole operation.
In reality it's the trans flag, referencing the fact that so many transgender people love breaking bad for reasons unknown. Is it just because the show casts such a wide net that there happen to be so many trans folks? Or is it something to do with Walter's struggles of identify between whether he is Walter White or Heisenberg as he tries to keep his old self, Walter White out facing the public and becomes his true self, Heisenberg when in private.
Could additionally be a reference to the wildly popular theory and headcanon that Jesse Pinkman is Transgender.
Since the inception of the Breaking Bad Flag, transgender fans of Breaking Bad have also used the words "Breaking Bad" itself as slang for something being trans or trans-coloured, especially in cases where one is not in a place to safely talk about trans things. One might say "Those dice are Breaking Bad coloured" or "I'm a big fan of Breaking Bad", but not really mean Breaking Bad.
