Piralysis

A mental condition when the irrational number π suffers occasional bouts of depression, especially during a pandemic, when fewer theorems on pi grace the pages of reputable math journals and periodicals.
As the most beloved constant in mathematics, it’s not surprising that π is prone to piralysis every now and then, as it pops up in fewer proofs from delayed publications that came out when the world was on lockdown.

PAPralysis

When Singaporeans and permanent residents often feel powerless or helpless how to improve their standard of living in the midst of a rising cost of living, and with most local and foreign companies unspokenly preferring to recruit foreign rather than local talents, because they are a cheaper and submissive source of labor—locals and PRs feel that the half-century-old ruling party is quasi-clueless how to help them.
