Aponatalism

A personal philosophy or lifestyle choice where someone deliberately avoids having children or engaging in parenthood, viewing it as a valid path of detachment rather than opposition. Unlike antinatalism (which sees procreation as morally wrong), aponatalism simply means "away from natalism" opting out for freedom, focus, or personal reasons without judging others who choose kids.

Aponatalism is the personal choice to avoid having (more) children because one realizes they don't want additional sentient beings to suffer through life's inevitable hardships.

Aporandomia

The cognitive tendency to perceive randomness, chaos, and meaninglessness even where genuine patterns, structures, or meanings exist. It is the conceptual opposite of apophenia (the tendency to perceive patterns in random noise). Where the apophenic sees faces in clouds and conspiracies in coincidence, the aporandomic sees only clouds when there are faces, only coincidence when there is conspiracy, only noise when there is signal. It's a form of chronic pattern-blindness that dismisses genuine connections as illusory, real structures as imagined, and meaningful correlations as mere chance. In debates, aporandomia manifests as the reflexive rejection of any proposed pattern as "just randomness" without proper investigation.

Example: "Despite a decade of data showing climate trends, his aporandomia had him convinced it was just weather—he literally couldn't see the pattern right in front of him."

Apocalution

Are we in the middle of an apocalypse or a revolution? Looking around, I can't decide so I coined the word "apocalution" because it really does feel like we're "bothing it."

I have alcohol, popcorn, and a front-row seat to the Apocalution.

Apocalyptic Goon

When you realise the world is ending (or you are about to get inevitably murdered) so, naturally, you whip out your dick/pussy and stroke like never before, until all fades out but freak. You're gooning like there's no tomorrow, because (at least for you) there isn't any. It may also be used to disgust/confuse/arouse your killer, marginally prolonging your life.

Sargeant Doakes realised Lila was on Dexter's side, and subsequently pulled an apocalyptic goon knowing that his death was imminent. He died hard.
