T₀

Read as Trump’s naught or reproduction number. The total number of people Donald J. Trump had infected and is likely to infect in coming days and weeks, because he selfishly and vaingloriously refuses to protect others by wearing a face mask and to isolate himself, when he is still not corona-free and is contagious to others.
Based on media reports, the White House superspreader’s T₀ among his entourage has so far been no fewer than a dozen victims.

Vaccinatee

Someone who has been jabbed or shot by a vaccinator. Also known as a “vaccinated person.”
The Omicron carrier could only be a vaccinatee, because 99.99% of the unvaccinated are barred from traveling.

When a situationally ethical US President broke his promise to make a rogue country a “pariah” over its grim human rights record, by fist-bumping with its de facto ruler, who green-lighted the murder of a dissident journalist.
The choreography of President Biden's interactions with the Saudi crown prince, which exonerates a grisly murder with the victim being dismembered without the rogue mastermind being made accountable, shows that a bump is worth a thousand words.

Maskerick

A limerick on the mixed messages mask wearing is sending to the public, be it as a symbol of political rebellion against the authorities, the selfish attitude by maskholes whose inept leader mocked mask-wearers, or as a protective shield against infection even for vaccinated folks.
A maskerick that was composed in the aftermath of mask myths propagated by some selfish diehard Trumpists or QAnonists is:

Three maskholes-finalists emerged for the ignoble “Maskhole of the Year” award.
Donald J. Trump, Rand Paul, and Ted Cruz from a dirty dozen names put forward.
From the unholy trinity, who refuse to wear a face mask in public out of sheer vanity,
Whose odds are the highest in clinching the notorious prize on this side of eternity?
Wouldn’t it be a surprise if one Trumpublican beats his vain boss for the reward?

Covid-𝜊

Read as “Covid-Omicron.” Also known as the B.1.1.529 or “Omicron” variant. South Africa’s second “variant of concern”—after the Beta variant (B.1.351)—is thought to be more infectious and transmissible than the Delta variant, and can apparently bypass some, if not all, of the protection from WHO-approved vaccines.
What are the odds that profiteering-driven vaccine makers would soon recommend that folks, who have recently received their booster shot against the Delta variant, to also receive their fourth jab against Covid-𝜊?

When the quality of Singapore math textbooks and supplementary titles took a beating in the last one and a half decades, because both local and foreign math editors were reporting to their oft-clueless bosses, who were recruited under the Singapore-India “Comprehensive Economic Cooperation Agreement” (CECA), many of whom with quasi-zero understanding of the Singapore educational system and the local educational publishing industry.
It’s hard to estimate the reputational and economic costs suffered by publishing houses in the aftermath of the Cecanization of Singapore Math: resignation of editors, frustration of authors, rejection of textbooks, brand dilution, and the like.

Spiritual Wind

What Christians experience when they are supernaturally visited by the Holy Spirit—a common outward sign is they start to speak in tongues or laugh uncontrollably.
Unlike a strong wind that both believers and unbelievers can feel or hear outdoors, the spiritual wind is usually experienced only by Christians indoors, be it in a church congregation or in a home fellowship of a few believers.
