goblincore 

Goblincore is an aesthetic which seems to have originated on Tumblr, as a twist on ‘dragoncore’. While both dragoncore and goblincore seem to focus on collections (or hoards), goblincore leans into the grimier, grittier, and just more generally cluttered look. Goblincore celebrates not just flawless gems, dazzling metals, and meticulously kept treasuries, but also damaged coins, cool rocks, bits of scrap metal, maybe even beads, bugs, and buttons.

If you have a disordered, unlabeled collection of rocks, shells, buttons, or trinkets (or all the above), goblincore might be the aesthetic for you. Some call it hoarding, but we call it ‘collecting’.
Wow, Dan sure does have a lot of shit. When did he get so many bits of sea glass? And is that just a pile of shells?”
“Yeah, he found a goblincore blog on tumblr and just kinda lost himself in it.”

The act of loving the VTuber Amelia Watson unconditionally while fully knowing that a realistic romantic relationship with her is unattainable.

A Gosling is in a parasocial relationship. No matter how much they love her, she'll always be just a girl on a screen.
Symptoms are: Feeling of emptiness, loneliness, fear, emotional stress and pain.

The term Gosling is based on the fact that the actor Ryan Gosling played characters that had parasocial relationships, such as Lars, from Lars and the Real Girl and K from Blade Runner 2049.

There's a second term called Goslingposting, where Goslings post gifs from Blade Runner 2049 to depict the feelings they're currently having.

The term can also be applied to other VTubers.
Gosling A: I Love Amelia...
Gosling B: I know man.

Ryan Gosling Syndrome

Ryan Gosling Syndrome is a disease that 14 year old boys contract after watching the hit movies Barbie, Drive, and Blade Runner 2049. It causes them to believe that they are “literally Ryan gosling” and whenever they see Ryan Gosling they have to point out that it’s them or they will spontaneously combust.
Boy 1: Did you hear Ben and Raf contracted Ryan Gosling Syndrome?

Boy 2: Yeah, I believe they saw the movie Barbie and now they both think they are Ryan Gosling.
