River Valian

Is a person that was born and raised in River Vale and decided to live in River Vale as an adult. These humans believe that River Vale is the a representation of the world. Modern language refers to people in this category as “Karens” for their reporting of garbage cans being on the curb hours past their “deadline”. They complain about the deer population but refuse to make decisions that will help. Ultimately, a river valían is an entitled human that lives in the fantasy land of a suburban town in Bergen county and believes that they are the best.

Man you better watch out with that family, they are River valians

Self Diagnosis Is Valid

A Tumblr tag used by idiots who think it's okay to pretend to have autism or that think they have autism because of TikTok. Same with DID, ADHD, Tourette's, and other disabilities/disorders. Bro? They're serious mental conditions. Disorders aren't xenogenders! And no, you don't know better than a doctor with a PHD. Get off Tumblr, touch grass, and get a life.

Emily, 13 year old self-diagnosed autism/DID haver and coiner of some new dissociative disorder or "system" trait: GRRR! I'm sick of these uneducated fools thinking that my self diagnosis isn't valid. DOCTORS HATE WOMEN AND BLACK PEOPLE!!!11!! DiAGNOSIS IS A PRIVILEGE!!!!! #SELF DIAGNOSIS IS VALID
Lucy, an actual autistic person: What the fuck are you on about? You do know that Autism doesn't just mean you're forgetful and DID isn't the hip trendy disorder that everyone wants, right? I deal with a lot of crap from idiots for my autism and it's extremely disrespectful that you-
Emily: ABELIST!!!!!! DNI RIGHT NOW!!!!! *blocked*

Law of Spectral Logical Validity

The principle that logical validity exists on a spectrum between absolute and relative, with infinite gradations and multiple dimensions. Under this law, an argument isn't simply valid or invalid—it's valid to some degree, in some logical systems, under some interpretations, for some purposes. The law of spectral validity recognizes that validity is not binary but continuous, that arguments can be more or less valid depending on the standards applied, and that the question isn't "is it valid?" but "where on the spectrum of validity does this argument fall?" This law is essential for understanding debates between different logical frameworks, where each side's arguments are valid within their own system but may appear invalid in another.

Law of Spectral Logical Validity Example: "She evaluated his argument using spectral logical validity, mapping it across multiple dimensions: validity in classical logic (high), validity in paraconsistent logic (medium), validity in fuzzy logic (depends on truth values), validity in everyday reasoning (pretty good). The spectral coordinates explained why the argument worked for some audiences and failed for others. She stopped calling it invalid and started understanding where it lived."

Law of the Valid Ad Hoc

The principle that ad hoc constructions—explanations, arguments, solutions devised for a specific purpose—can be genuinely valid within their limited domain. The law is a defense of pragmatism against purism: not everything needs to be universal to be useful. A theory that explains one phenomenon, even if it fails elsewhere, is valid for that phenomenon. A solution that works once, even if not replicable, is valid for that once. The law of the valid ad hoc reminds us that validity is not all-or-nothing; it comes in degrees and contexts. The valid ad hoc is the workhorse of practical life, even if it doesn't make it into textbooks.

Example: "She jury-rigged a fix for her broken printer using tape and a paperclip. It worked exactly once, for exactly one document, then fell apart. The law of the valid ad hoc said: it was valid for that document, at that moment. It wasn't engineering; it was survival. Sometimes survival is enough."

Law of the Fallacy Validity

The principle that under specific conditions, what appears to be a fallacy can actually be valid reasoning. The law acknowledges that context matters: an argument that commits a fallacy in one setting may be perfectly reasonable in another. Ad hominem, attacking the person, is fallacious in formal debate but valid when assessing credibility (you wouldn't trust a tobacco company's research on smoking). Appeal to authority is fallacious when the authority is irrelevant but valid when expertise is genuine. Slippery slope is fallacious when speculative but valid when causal chains are real. The law of the fallacy validity reminds us that fallacy labels are not absolute; they're tools, not weapons. What matters is not whether an argument fits a fallacy pattern but whether it's reasonable in context.

Example: "He accused her of ad hominem for mentioning the speaker's industry funding. She invoked the law of the fallacy validity: attacking the person is valid when their credibility is relevant. The funding mattered; the ad hominem was justified. He called it a fallacy; she called it context. She was right."
