Contraction 

A way to combine to perhaps unrelated words in a way that combines their meanings to some capacity and creates a whole new word with a compounded meaning.

A process by which larger things such as phrases or multiple words become smaller, such as a single word.

I combined two existing legitimate words to create a new word with a similar or conjoined meaning. Effective-Applicable Efficable. Contraction of things to become more dense. such as dense meaning or dense information aka Data.

Contraction of the mind 

When a middle aged mom of three gets a wicked bad headache and needs some "me time" so she can get her body/mind/soul straightened out so she can get back to Zumba-ing.

Lisa went to the ER and after a battery of tests was unfortunately diagnosis with severe case of a contraction of the mind. The doctor prescribed her 2 Tylenol and ensured she'd be getting her groove back before she knew it...

Contraction and Expansion Thermodynamics

A theoretical framework extending classical thermodynamics to account for scenarios where energy and mass are not conserved—particularly in contexts of cosmic expansion, gravitational collapse, and far‑from‑equilibrium systems. It argues that in expanding spacetimes (like our universe), energy is not globally conserved because time‑translation symmetry breaks. In contracting systems (like matter falling into a black hole), mass‑energy can appear to increase or decrease depending on the frame of reference. This framework also applies to open biological and social systems that exchange energy with their environment, where “conservation” is local and temporary. Contraction and expansion thermodynamics challenges the absolutism of conservation laws, showing they are context‑dependent.

Example: “The cosmologist used contraction and expansion thermodynamics to explain why the universe’s total energy seemed to increase over time—in an expanding spacetime, conservation laws don’t hold globally, and what looks like creation is actually a change in the geometry of the system.”

Shit Contraction

Prior to taking a dump, you get horrible pains in your stomach. Those pains sometimes get so bad that you just want to lay on the ground and get into the fetal position.

Pregnant women get contractions and they must hurt a shit load and so do shit contractions.

Duder 1: Dude, hurry up in that bathroom, I have to take a dump!
Duder 2: Hold on, I'm only brushing my teeth.
Duder 1: I'm having shit contractions, please hurry up!
