Cumberduty

Cumberduty (noun): A burdensome or undesirable task that one is repeatedly obligated to perform as a direct consequence of having previously demonstrated exceptional competence at it. It is an obligation that weighs on or hinders a person because of their own skill, trapping them in a repetitive and unrewarding role.

Etymology: A neologism combining the verb cumber, meaning to hinder or encumber, and the noun duty.
"The new office manager's attention to detail was initially praised, but it soon led to a cumberduty of tedious weekly reports that no one else was trusted to complete."

"After successfully streamlining the complex filing system, her victory turned into a cumberduty; she became the sole person responsible for managing and updating it."

Texas is categorized as a swing state in presidential elections, but has voted for Republicans more times than for Democrats in recent history. As such, as demographics change political alignments, some Democrats believe that Texas will vote blue, or Democratic, due to their Hispanic and African American voters, who often align themselves with the Democratic Party's liberal wing.

Blexas has been cited as possible in the upcoming decades, but only if Democrats continue to win the Hispanic vote in bigger margins.
Democrat 1: What is your prediction for the 2024 presidential election?
Democrat 2: Well uh, Blexas!
Democrat 1: You've been saying that since 2008 though.

Brought to public attention by Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein in the book on the fall of Richard Nixon, All The President’s Men, ratfucker was Nixon’s term for a political operative who sows chaos among opponents; an agent provocateur. It is thought to have originated among campus political rivalries at USC, and seems to have some usage in the US military.
Along with Nixon’s other ratfuckers, Roger Stone caused fights at otherwise peaceful Democratic Party protests to generate a false narrative that the Democrats were violent and dangerous.
