AFK tolerance 

AFK tolerance is the ability to withstand AFK moments, i.e. the inability to watch YouTube for extended periods of time. Only once you have low AFC tolerance levels will going to bed whilst having not watched YouTube during the day, feel as unpleasant as going to bed whilst being hungry. Persons who have subscribed to lots of YouTube channels in a row (i.e. 600+ channels), generally have worse AFK tolerance levels compared to those who subscribe to few to no YouTube channels.

After a week of being grounded without my phone, my AFK tolerance hit rock bottom; going to bed without catching up on my favorite YouTubers felt just as bad as sleeping on an empty stomach!

AFK-tolerant environment 

AFK-tolerant environments are the environments where AFK moments are more normalized (read: occurring more common and feeling less painful). For example, K-12 school campuses require students to collect smartphones during school hours while those having excessive screen time per day will get an eye. This policy is akcually meant to create conducive learning environments, even though there are common misconception among gamers and YouTube addict that this policy is meant to "condition" students to inevitable AFK moments that are going to happen to them during the rest of their young lives, even after high school graduation.

The school’s strict smartphone policy created an AFK-tolerant environment, helping students adapt to being offline during class, despite some kids grumbling about missing their favorite YouTube channels.

Grindset

The grindset is a contemporary ideology of self-exploitation disguised as strength, deeply tied to the aesthetics of the “sigma male” and to new digital forms of patriarchy. It promotes the idea that human worth depends on productivity, economic success, absolute emotional control, and the ability to work endlessly, turning vulnerability, rest, community, and tenderness into signs of weakness. Beneath its rhetoric of discipline and power often lies a profound inability to relate healthily to pain, fragility, and human interdependence.

“That’s the grindset, brother. While weak men sleep and complain, sigma males stay disciplined, work in silence, suppress emotions, and build power while everyone else wastes time chasing comfort.”

Breadhead 

Someone who is addicted to obtaining money and building wealth. A money addict and fanatic. Breadheads often work more than one full-time job, and some even participate in illicit activities to "obtain the bread".

A breadhead is like a crackhead, but for money instead of crack.
