Income that requires minimal effort to maintain, allowing you to earn money while you focus on other activities, like sleeping or hanging out with friends. Often associated with investments, online content, or businesses that generate revenue without constant involvement.
My Youtube upload for the MP3-CD titled 'I Was Too Young To Watch Threadpool' hit 433 views within its first 18 hours? It feels like "passive income", where the number of views continuously increases whilst I sleep, go to college, do college assignments, hang out with friends, travel, etc. etc

Get the passive income mug.Not glorifying passive culture means simply not examining/implying power of anything based on race, gender, sexuality, or wealth
In America, they argue countlessly of Trump vs Biden, Left vs Right, Woke vs Racist, Straight vs Gay. Here, we never argue about that, it's passive culture, and Putin and Xi never laugh at us.

Get the Passive culture mug.If you want to say the guy is short dicked that's one thing. If he's Asian or Irish, that's more of an observation than an insult. But saying somebody is passive and soft and making it a combination of three words instead of one or two to get somebody's attention isn't something everybody gets a free pass to do, so hopefully you're not passive or soft yourself if you're saying something like that of somebody else.

Get the Passive mug.He/she wasn't as straightforward as he/she claimed to be, he/she actually had a passive mindset of creeping up from behind and stabbing somebody in the back or shooting them in the head, then letting the other person know what the problem was.

Get the passive mug.When government takes advantage of its citizens to charge extra fees for better service to the benefit of rich people who can afford it and to the detriment of poor people who can't.

Get the passive-regressive mug.A special case of robbing where a victim is forgetful of something and the thief disguises their crime by playing on the victim’s forgetfulness.
By reminding the victim of something that they forgot* at a time where they cannot retrieve it, it allows enough time for them to forget about it again, leaving the thief with the goods.
It’s a type of physical gaslighting that makes the aggressor appear completely innocent (despite their intent) and the victim seem as though they are irresponsible with their items**.
*The victim did not forget anything. They were robbed and convinced otherwise. This is important for the ruse to work.
**This happens with hoodies a lot.

Jessica took Terry’s sunglasses. Terry was told that his sunglasses were left at Jessica’s apartment after a beach trip even though he always leaves them in his car. Jessica reminded Terry on three separate occasions that he left his stuff there only while he was at work or with friends knowing he’ll forget. Jessica finally stopped reminding him and kept his glasses. Jessica used passive thievery.
