Sarah’s political engagement is a classic example of "Loadout Politics" in action. She initially joined the progressive movement for the sole purpose of advocating for affordable universal healthcare. However, rather than maintaining an independent stance on other issues, she quickly adopted her group’s entire ideological package. Within months, Sarah found herself intensely debating local zoning laws and attending protests against international trade agreements—issues completely unrelated to healthcare—simply because she felt that being a true member of the left required equipping the entire policy 'loadout' without question.
Instead of evaluating each issue on its own merits, Mark fell into the trap of "Loadout Politics". Because he initially aligned with the political right solely to support stricter border security, he felt compelled to adopt their entire ideological package without question. Soon, he found himself vocally opposing green energy initiatives and defending corporate deregulation—two issues he had never previously cared about—simply because those views came bundled in the political 'loadout' he felt he had to equip to remain a loyal member of his tribe

dead drop

A common place is to duct tape the item to the underside of a toilet cover in a public restroom.

No Surprises Wedding
A "No Surprises Wedding," or NSW, is a wedding invitation designation that tells attendees that there can be no unplanned announcements, engagements, events or speeches at the wedding - all actions must be pre-approved by the couple. Anyone who performs an unapproved "surprise" will be asked to leave the wedding early.
This designation comes from Reddit, where so many stories of bad wedding behavior indicated a need to communicate expectations for the wedding behavior of attendees.
