Prisonies

Trump’s convicted cronies who escaped imprisonment because they were pardoned by him as a quid pro quo for helping him rise to the highest office in the land with some collusion with Russia.
Guesstimate how many prisonies would be free on 1/20, 2021, when the Liar-in-Chief leaves (or is escorted out of) the White House.

Malay Math

When Singapore’s affirmative action allows Malay students to pay zero school fees all the way up to their tertiary education, which has raised the mathematical proficiency of the Malay community over the decades—Malay math students, of which 99⁺% are Muslims, have fared reasonably well in international comparative studies like TIMSS and PISA vis-à-vis their foreign counterparts, albeit they still have some catching up to do compared to their local peers from other races.
Years ago, based on some TIMSS rankings, a Malay cabinet minister had figured out that Singapore Malay students are unofficially among the “world’s top ten,” which positively suggests that Malay math policies have helped raise the quantitative literacy of the Malay or Muslim community in Singapore.

Give a Shit!

Do your best in whatever you do, especially when no one is around, and don’t expect anything in return for your good deeds—live as if it is your last day on earth.
If only more people’s mantra were “Give a shit!” regardless whether their boss likes them or not, or whether they’re fairly being treated, heaven would be overcrowded.

Maskophobia

The fear of wearing a face mask—when some people become mentally disturbed or paranoid of seeing their and others’ faces covered.
Guesstimate how many people globally suffer from maskophobia, who would find it hard to explain to the authorities why their psychological condition calls for a mask exemption during this pandemic.

Great Replacement

When white racists or supremacists claim that the racial mix of their country that belongs to their ancestors who first came to the land is now being disrupted by the growing population of the black and people of color, and by the influx of both illegal and legal immigrants from third world countries, and they need to do something about it to prevent themselves from becoming the minority group in the country.
From the US to the UK to Australia, right-wing politicians are promoting the great replacement theory among frustrated or unemployed voters, who feel that their lands are being invaded by Mohammedans, Africans, Asians, and refugees, who would one day form the majority of the population, if there is zero restriction on immigration.

Mathematically Irreverent

When someone decides to coin a math word or phrase, or to redefine an existing one, without fear of being censured, rebuked, punished, or fired.
Urban Dictionary remains the social platform of choice for mathematically irreverent writers, who just want to sexify or spice the most boring or disliked school subject for millions of students worldwide.

Make Masks Mandatory Again

The call by medical personnel to half-hearted pro-Trump politicians in a number of red states that have started to witness a rise in corona infection in spite of the fact that more people are continually being vaccinated—a “proof” that vaccination doesn’t prevent infection or reinfection, and that mask-wearing is a necessary irritation until the population achieves herd immunity.
Should “Make Masks Mandatory Again” be elevated or promoted to an official slogan to educate patriots and conspiracists that they’d still wear a mask in public squares, especially when it’s difficult to practice social distancing in a crowded space?
