Example of an Albertisms
I love Styx "Oh mama I'm in fear for my life from the law"
It's actually "Oh mama I'm in fear for my life from the long arm of the law"

Get the Albertising mug.The common practise of identifying a problem without even attempting to suggest a solution.
This can range from tangible problems (e.g. a broken cupboard door that is simply flagged to housemates via WhatsApp) to more intangible problems (e.g. a therapist merely pointing out toxic behaviours without offering suggestions for how to change those behaviours and/or what aspirational healthy behaviours could look like).
Those that practice this often feel that through identifying a problem they have done their bit or done enough. In reality, without the follow-through, the problem remains but we just see it more clearly.

The difference between The Great Hack and The Social Dilemma is that the latter actually offered a solution - the former was just one great big exercise in alertism.
