Left-reading

Interpretations of media that makes excuses for sexist/anti-lgbtq/racist themes by giving undue credit and nuance to authorial intent; especially as a way to give a pass to offensive writing in movies/books/etc you might enjoy.

"Zelda isn't actually a damsel in distress because she helps in defeating the final boss"

"No, that's just a left-reading of her role. She still has to wait around for Link to save her very frequently."

or

"The left-readings of Rey's role in Star Wars Episode 8 are too forgiving, considering she spends so much of the film trying to 'fix' men. "

The banana has left the peel

Used to describe the moment in which one dissociates. Like when you feel you are no longer in your body.

Friend: there's a theory suggesting that it's equally if not more probable that our universe is a computer simulation as compared to the idea of an intelligent creator.

Me: The banana has left the peel.
