positive spiritual energy

Is what you want to conduct to produce Love, Peace, Happiness, etc. Opposite of negative spiritual energy which produces Hate, War, Sadness, etc.

If you want to get stronger, lift weights. If you want to get smarter, read an encyclopedia. If you want more positive spiritual energy, practice doing good.

Purity Spiral

A social ratchet effect within a community. A process of moral outbidding, unchecked, which corrodes the group from within, rewarding those who put themselves at the extremes, and punishing nuance relentlessly.

Not to be confused with 'virtue signalling', 'woke culture', or 'online mobs'.

A purity spiral can contain all of these things, but it is defined by the fact that it takes place in a defined community or society, where being purer-than-thou is always being rewarded, and holding a divergent, 'less pure' opinion is normally punished, a dynamic which leads to an inevitable escalation as only the most extreme can 'win'.

Could be anything, from Mao's Red Guard, to Neo-Nazis, to The Crucible, to Instagram knitting.

After Louise denounced Nike as bourgeois, the village fell into a purity spiral where first Nikes, then all sneakers, then all shoes, and later, socks, were burnt on a pyre by the villagers.

Foot amputations followed in the Spring.

spirit airlined

Being tricked into a service that robs you, unknowingly signing on to something because you think it is a good deal only to find yourself penniless and hungry wishing you had chosen Delta.

Tyler: John I just got a truck off craigslist for $200
John: That's awesome, how does it run?
Tyler: It only came with the steering wheel.
John: Oh shit boy you just got spirit airlined!

That woman plays more tricks than a Spirit Airline's stewardess.

spiritual rapture

spiritus raptus:

1- an expression of passion or ecstacy

2- the overwhelming emotions resulting from a devine or spiritual encounter.

3- a euphoric / mystical state of being
see: Sartre's definition of being, ref: Being and Nothingness c. 1965

4- the final assumption of Christians (oh shit, not another) into heaven
see: End of Day's: but only after Satan routes the internal organs out of the films heroine with his (totally circumsised) disembowling / glass shard spiked, strapped on (or not) man's man tool of an angelic Lardon! see: End of Day's again (sober)
see: The Devil's by Ken Russell (not sober)

Note: SR is not to be associated with, but similar to huffing on nitrogen gas.
don't see: huffing (it's played),
see: nitrogen narcosis weeeeeeeeeee! (to be thoroughly explored)

In the preparation of Jesus, Mary had experienced the spiritual rapture in coupling with her boy Joey from Brooklyn. *spiritus raptus my dick, yo!

Spire

Coined by RTGame. In reference to the Spire of Dublin.

An insulting term for a person who is a leech that drains all your money/energy.

Jessica is really getting on my nerves. She's such a spire.

Spirit of Tamera

Internet meme hailing from Twitter, referencing iconic 90s actress Tamera Mowry-Housley, meaning you're deeply attracted to a white man, which implies that Tamera's "spirit" is possessing you.

The meme is inspired by a heavily used gif of Tamera crying, while confessing she is called "white man's whore" by internet trolls, because of her interracial marriage to a white man. Also, she is often picked on by fans and her dear friend Loni Love, for her apparent predilection for white men.

Have you seen Chris Evans's new photoshoot? The spirit of Tamera is calling me.

I can't get over my obsession with Jon Hamm... The spirit of Tamera isn't giving me a break.

Spiritarium

A system that displays an interactive map of the psyche, the unconscious mind, the soul, and all spiritual substance that make up the incorporeal aspects of the universe.

I used the Spiritarium to study the unconscious mind.
