Left-reading

Interpretations of media that makes excuses for sexist/anti-lgbtq/racist themes by giving undue credit and nuance to authorial intent; especially as a way to give a pass to offensive writing in movies/books/etc you might enjoy.

"Zelda isn't actually a damsel in distress because she helps in defeating the final boss"

"No, that's just a left-reading of her role. She still has to wait around for Link to save her very frequently."

or

"The left-readings of Rey's role in Star Wars Episode 8 are too forgiving, considering she spends so much of the film trying to 'fix' men. "

Read

Reading in the definition of Video Games is like a sixth sense in the mind on a person, like you know exactly what they are about to do before the move happens and you've already thought to counteract. In simpler terms. It's similar to a prediction in the future.

With the character you chose and how you play, it's not hard to read you.

Read Receipt Ghost

Read Receipt Ghost (pronounced: reed ree-SEET gohst)
noun, informal

1. A person who has deliberately turned off read receipts in a messaging application, making it impossible for the sender to know whether the message has been read, thereby creating an air of uncertainty. A technique often employed by those who are: habitual liars, privacy ‘enthusiasts’, and/or those who only use people for selfish purposes while ghosting (in an unprovable way) the rest of the time.

Pronunciation: /ri d rɪˈsi t goʊst/

“I’ve been messaging him for days and either he turned off his read receipts or he’s not seen my messages; he’s a read receipt ghost.”
“Dude only texts me when he wants something, when I text, nothing. Dudes’ got read receipts turned off and says “I didn’t see your messages””
“I’ve noticed you’re a read receipt ghost, mind turning on your read receipts for me?”
