CanClit

A Canadian literature institution made of "Cans" and "Clits", where curiously enough, straight male nerds use women as sex objects. Yet women - who oblige or not - employ said-nerd-men as useful idiots to advance their literary career aspirations.

CanClit relies on the motto "Yes I Can?" and various other hijacked / hackneyed literary slogans for its cause, cause it really can't. If it could, it wouldn't be mired in identity / sexuality / cultural appropriation / power politicking, and other vain rubbish.

Other important slogans are, "Those who can, can. Those who can't, teach." and "Can you do the can-can?"

- Gee! Sheila's mad at Freddy because the burgeoning "literary career" he promised her after much sex, left her in financial disrepair, eh. Oh well, she'll call on the virile "CanClit" hashtag for a publicity boost!

- Whoo! Shamus is annoyed at Morgan cause he didn't share the CanClit poon! Such a selfish little itty-bitty! There's enough to go around on - and off campus!

- The publisher sifted through piles of manuscripts, and mistakenly thought she stumbled on the next Atwood. Instead, she "chanced" upon yet another CanClit story... And needless to say, the manuscript doesn't warrant a response!

- Real writers explore the world with open eyes and think education is a cruel expensive joke. CanClit writers receive training in unispiring institutions, that cost tuition and sexual favors in exchange for degrees. Well, degrees aren't cred or good lit - guess what kinda literature people want to read- and which kind they'll avoid? "Can" you do that?

CanLit 

Canadian literature.

Overall, a literary 'scene' that used to hinge on rural tropes, miserable long winters, hockey eh, and ironic heroism. Yet with the rise of postmodernism and cultural globalization, Canlit has 'evolved' to literature frequently mired in identity, cultural appropriation, sexuality, power politics and other vain pretentious postmodern rubbish.

Canlit is a potemkin cultural effort to establish literary relevance, because Canada is actually a first world resource colony / banana republic, with culture determined by difference, resentment and a lust for reparations. Perhaps Canlit stands as a global signpost for the age of vacuous social media, rebooted CGI films, musical mashups approximating innovative originality, and a general loss of humanist transcendence in the wake of ascendant cybernetic fascism.

Sheldon: "Read anything good lately?"
Whitey: "MmmmHmmm yes some good Canlit!"
Sheldon: "Oh ye soap opera gobshite - to the dust bin now."

OR

Laura: "Professor ShamishBBBlashga just published a real tour de force for Canlit! A booker awaits on the horizon."
Ellen: "Oh geeez eeeeesh - yeah another grant-absorbing pomo wannabe drunk prof leads the way, eh?"
Laura: "He brought some students along for the ride!"
Ellen: "Yes, we all know that, wink-wink!"

Cancelitis Nervosa 

A form of extreme anxiety about being canceled or impending cancellation due to a history of either out-right or secretive socially unacceptable behavior in one's past. This condition can also manifest due to things that you said or did that USED to be acceptable being deemed unacceptable in current times. This type of worry is especially common among celebrities or political candidates.

Many comedians suffer from Cancelitis Nervosa due to a history of saying risque things in their performances that have become much more problematic in modern times and threaten to derail their careers.

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.”
