Enough with these long and overly rambly definitions. Intersectionality is a sociological concept that simply denotes how one's race, gender, and socioeconomic class is all interconnected with each other. Simple as that.
Likewise, the term can also denote how race, gender, and class are NOT separate categories, but rather is like a system of categories that are linked to one another.
What this basically means is that a person's identity, and how it may be used to discriminate against them, is multidimensional and depends on the sum of all those aspects (race, gender, class). For example, in the 1950s, the common discourse back then was that black people are being treated unfairly. But what people don't realize at the time was that black women are being treated more unfairly than black men.
So, that is what Intersectionality is in a nutshell. It does not mean anything else, and it should not mean anything else. It is not a derogatory word used to express hatred. It is not political leftist jargon. It is does not originate from Marxist thought. It is not used to express one's 'privilege' over another. So please stop attributing these irrelevant and slandering aspects to this rather insightful term!

Victor: Dang, my sociology prof gave us a super woke lecture on intersectionality.
Chad: Intersectionality? Sounds like another one of those cringey buzzwords used by feminists and SJWs
Victor: Lol, well I hate the break it to you but ur more than wrong. It's a very useful and helpful concept. You only think it's cringey because of the few bitter women who wrongfully use it as a retort in Twitter debates.
Chad: Lol whatever, idc
Victor: Then why'd you even ask???

Get the Intersectionality mug.INTPs are probably one of the most innocent and dorky creatures ever to roam on this planet. But don't be fooled, under that dorky innocent guise is a very perceptive mind. They have an uncanny ability to acquire knowledge and insight from multiple different perspectives, something that many have trouble doing. Their mind is also a warehouse for storing all sorts of elaborate knowledge pertaining to a certain hobby, interest or field, hence they sometimes may be associated with the nerd/geek stereotype. INTPs are also known for having a very idiosyncratic sense of humor, which can be described as sarcastic, goofy, absurd and even dark. The way an INTP expresses love can also be idiosyncratic. For example, while they might not express love directly, it often gets expressed in more indirect ways such as offering to help with your homework or with your IT problems.
If you ever meet someone who's adorkable, humble and low-key intelligent, they're most likely an INTP.

Friend 1: Dude have you ever met Emmy?
Friend 2: Yeah dude she's so adorkable and wholesome!
Friend 1: She's most definitely an INTP
Friend 2: Fo sure!

Get the INTP mug.As with all recent years, 2021 was not a great year, far from it. But tbh it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be.
Some highlights, good and bad:
➡️ 2021 saw the release of several great video games including Little Nightmares II, Deltarune Chapter 2, Subnautica: Below Zero, It Takes Two, and Five Nights at Freddy's: Security Breach.
➡️ Disney & Pixar finally seemed to make a great comeback in 2021 with Encanto and Luca.
➡️ Among us references basically dominated 2021.
➡️ Covid restrictions began to loosen in some parts of the world.
➡️ 2021 saw the controversial birth of NFTs.
➡️ Zuckerberg's rebranding of FB into Meta and his dumb metaverse.
➡️ More covid variants appeared (delta and omicron).
➡️ As mentioned in another definition, social media is still more or less the same with cringey memes and tiktoks tailored to gen Z taste. Unfortunately not something that will go away soon. We will just have to ignore and move on.
➡️ And, well, the world... just continued being the world, with covid, violence, protests and natural disasters still happening like it has always been.
So overall, 2021 was a mixture of some bad stuff and also some good stuff, nothing surprising. But to me, the good and bad cancels out just enough to remember 2021 in a sliver of positive light. Just ever so slightly.

Get the 2021 mug.It's true though. Flat IS justice, anyone who says otherwise clearly doesn't get the appeal. And no I'm not trolling, I am for real. I don't care if not a single man in the world shares my preferences, flat is justice and that is a fact. This is my unwavering conviction til the day I die, so be it!!!
Imagine liking bouncy, buxom, full-figured breasts, like ew. Flat ass and tits are MUCH more elegant looking (not too flat tho). Flat is justice.

Get the Flat is justice mug.The best dad there is. He does the most coolest and entertaining things with you and doesn't fret over the littlest things. Literally the opposite of a killjoy. If you have a Disney dad, consider yourself lucky (especially if you're a kid).
Jess: Hey wanna come over to Ben's place tonight? I hear he has a Disney Dad who's doing fun stuff
Taylor: Omg sure, sounds fun!

Get the Disney Dad mug.An umbrella term for two legumes of the cabbage family:
1) Napa Cabbage (used mainly for Kimchi)
2) Bok Choy
1) Napa Cabbage (used mainly for Kimchi)
2) Bok Choy
Person A: Hey do you want to buy some Chinese cabbage?
Person B: Ok but which Chinese cabbage?
Person A: Hmmmmmm, that's a good question 🤔🤔

Get the Chinese Cabbage mug.The act of cringing at somebody who is deliberately aware of what makes you and most people cringe. They themselves may even cringe at it. Yet, that certain somebody continues to write an entire essay about it.
Journalist: Now before you start to cringe at the mere word 'tik tok', we did a meta-analysis of all tik toks published after covid-19 and found that a large portion of tik toks are actually more educational than the standard high school curriculum.
Me: Ugh, meta-cringe.
