Resonansium

(Chemical symbol, Rs.) An alchemical element representing the perfect alignment of frequency, intent, and action. It possesses the unique property of amplifying energy rather than consuming it. In this state, friction ceases to exist. The direct opposite of Singularium.

Origin: Term coined by Sören Sam 'Roger' Lindfors, founder of Alchemical Philosophy, author of "Livets Bok" (The Book of Life) available at Amazon.se, and CEO of ECOPAC AB (ecopac.se).
"We finally hit the right frequency and the project entered a state of pure Resonansium."

"Zero friction, 100% Resonansium."

"There was no friction in the meeting, only Resonansium."

"When the orchestra plays as one entity, Resonansium arises."

Reasonshitpost

The tactical deployment of hyper-rational, often coldly utilitarian arguments to dismiss ethical, emotional, or social concerns as "irrational." It involves reducing complex human situations to crude cost-benefit analyses or biological imperatives, then presenting this reduction as superior, clear-eyed reasoning. It's a performance of detached rationality used as a cudgel.
Reasonshitpost Example: In a conversation about artistic funding, someone argues, "Reason dictates we defund the orchestra. Its utility-per-dollar is negligible compared to STEM grants. Music is just ordered sound waves triggering pleasure chemicals; we can synthesize that cheaper." This reasonshitpost uses the veneer of rational calculation to dismiss art's cultural value entirely.

Reasonpost

Similar to a logicpost, but focused on dictating the specific mode of reasoning that is acceptable (e.g., purely utilitarian cost-benefit analysis, strict biological reductionism). It frames this mode as “reason itself,” branding other forms of reasoning (deontological, emotional, intuitive) as “unreasonable.”
Reasonpost Example: In an ethics debate, someone states, “The only reasonable way to judge this is through a utilitarian calculus of net happiness. Any appeal to ‘rights’ or ‘dignity’ is an emotional appeal, not reason.” They’ve set a reasonpost, excluding entire ethical traditions from the domain of valid discourse.

Reason Biases

The broadest category: biases that affect how reason itself is understood, valued, and practiced. Reason Biases include: treating reason as a faculty rather than a practice; assuming reason is separate from culture, history, or embodiment; privileging Western traditions of reason over others; using "reason" as a gatekeeping concept to exclude non-dominant ways of knowing. Reason Biases are what happen when reason becomes a possession rather than a process—something some have and others lack.
Reason Biases "He keeps saying 'just use reason' as if reason were simple, universal, available to all equally. That's Reason Bias—ignoring that reason is practiced differently in different traditions, that access to reason is shaped by power, that 'reason' often means 'my way of thinking.' Reason isn't a light switch; it's a lifetime of learning. Bias makes it a weapon."

Reason Metabiases

Second-order biases about reason as a faculty, practice, and ideal. Reason Metabiases include: treating reason as a possession rather than a process; assuming reason is separate from culture, history, or embodiment; using "reason" as a gatekeeping concept to exclude non-dominant ways of knowing; believing that reason's authority is self-evident; ignoring the ways reason itself is constructed and contested. Reason Metabiases are what happen when reason becomes an idol—worshipped rather than used, defended rather than examined.
Reason Metabiases "He keeps saying 'just use reason' as if reason were simple, universal, and his. That's Reason Metabias—treating his particular reasoning tradition as Reason itself. Reason isn't a thing you have; it's a practice you learn. The metabias is thinking your practice is the practice, not one among many."
