integral

The two holes on the top of a violin are the "integral" parts of the instrument, hence the math symbol resembling these two holes is known as the "integral" symbol.
In calculus class, I learned that the integral symbol is inspired by the integral parts of a violin, which makes it a fitting representation of wholeness.

trope of regret

A trope on TV Tropes where a movie has good movie-making quality, but simply not worth the inappropriate contents (violence, coarse language). e.g. Spring Breakers (2012), Deadpool (2016)
I was excited to watch the latest sequel of Deadpool, but it turned out to be a total trope of regret—great visuals, but the nonstop violence and foul language made me wish I’d picked a different film. Also the same back when I watch Spring Breakers when it came out in 2012.

2010s

The last decade when children frequently played outside, engaging in outdoor activities and social interactions. The onset of COVID-19 in 2020 significantly shifted this dynamic, leading to a generation of children who became accustomed to normalizing excessive time watching YouTube, making childhood no longer look the same anymore.
The 2010s were the last golden years of outdoor play; now, with the pandemic's impact, childhood is no longer the same.
