The Big Delusion
The set of beliefs of the Americans in 2020 who follow Hate Media. The Big Delusion is the result of 3 decades of Rush Limbaugh and others on conservative radio, 25 years of Fox News, a decade of hateful social media and the rise of an immoral political party dominated by Donald Trump. These beliefs include thinking the 2020 presidential election was stolen, the Coronavirus pandemic was a hoax or at least dishonestly overblown, that Democrats are inherently bad people who want communism, the mainstream media is corrupt and dishonest, that darker-skinned people are unsafe and inferior and that their like-minded community, and all that they stand for, is under assault.
After years of trying to talk sense into Gil, I've concluded he is an unsalvageable victim of the Big Delusion. I knew he was on the road to crazy when he was consuming so much Rush Limbaugh in the 1990's, but there wasn't much I could do about it then, and nothing I can do about it now. A mind ruined. It's so sad.

Jump the Fox
Donald Trump's attack of Fox News after his 2020 election loss. This idiom pays homage to Fonzie's infamous shark-jumping on the TV show Happy Days. Just like Fonzie, Trump's action was one too many, and eventually lead to the breakup of the GOP into one camp of gaslighted worshippers and another of people still somewhat tethered to reality.

People's Choice Award
Ted: "Wow, our democracy is now nothing but a "People's Choice Award." We quit caring about background, character, intelligence or other intangibles, and simply pick the most entertaining white guy."
Russ: "Yep, Trump is no Lincoln, Eisenhower or FDR. I guess half the country finds him entertaining enough to be leader of the free world."
Ted: "Makes great sense, doesn't it? You don't think the rest of the world is both freaking out and laughing at us at the same time, do you?"

Fakebook
Any social media site that irresponsibly allows fake news to be easily and quickly disseminated to hundreds of millions. By doing so, democratic elections are dangerously influenced in favor of candidates and their followers who are willing to lie repeatedly, create or spread outrageous rumors and race-bait. These sites and their purveyors of fake news consequently create an existential crisis for responsible journalism, the people of the United States and, now that I think about it, the entire world.
The owners pathetically claim to simply own an innocent “platform,” an excuse not unlike the owner and manager of a whorehouse claiming to only manage the building itself, oblivious and innocent of the actions occurring in the building, and how it has destroyed the nearby neighborhood, as well as the lives of so many.

“Allow me to answer this one. Mike voted for that cruel, racist psychopathic moron because he learned on Fakebook that the opponent was friends with a brown-skinned woman who routinely lunched with a Muslim.”

Feather
A father who truly enjoys playing with his very young children for extended periods of time, especially while sober.
Russ: Chris said he had a great time at the Great Wolf Lodge this weekend playing in the pool with his 4-year-old twins.
Ted: And he said he didn't even drink! What a fuckin' feather!
Russ: Yep, sober. He said tossing the beach ball was second most fun next to making waves with his arms.
