Metalogical Sciences

The academic discipline that studies the systems of logic we use to study everything else, essentially asking "is our reasoning about reasoning reasonable?" It's the field that discovered that any logical system, if powerful enough to describe arithmetic, is either inconsistent or contains statements it can't prove (thanks, Gödel). In practical terms, metalogical sciences explain why every attempt to create a perfectly logical argument on the internet eventually devolves into someone saying "well, that's just your logic, man." It's the science of proving that logic has limits, which is logically frustrating.
Example: "He tried to use metalogical sciences to win an argument with his girlfriend. He explained that her emotional response was logically inconsistent with the premises she'd established. She replied that his reliance on formal logic was a classic example of the limitations of propositional calculus in capturing human experience. He had no response, because she was metalogically correct."

Metalogical Social Sciences

The study of how groups of people develop, adopt, and enforce shared systems of logic and reasoning. It examines why certain cultures value deductive reasoning over inductive, why academic departments feud over methodological approaches (qualitative vs. quantitative), and why some online communities have completely different standards for what counts as a "valid argument." It's the field that asks: if logic is universal, why do two reasonable people looking at the same facts so often reach completely different, yet internally logical, conclusions? The answer, usually, is tribalism.
Example: "A study in metalogical social sciences compared Reddit and Twitter argumentation styles. It found that Reddit favored lengthy, source-cited deductive arguments, while Twitter favored pithy, emotionally resonant assertions. Both communities considered the other's logic to be fundamentally broken, confirming that logic is often just whatever your in-group agrees upon."

Metabolical Sciences

The interdisciplinary study of metabolism as the central, dynamic processing core of living systems, from cells to ecosystems. It goes beyond biochemistry to model the flow of energy and information as a unified, complex adaptive system. This field asks how metabolic networks make decisions, compute, and evolve. It’s the science of life not as a bag of parts, but as a relentless, strategic game of energy acquisition, allocation, and survival played out in chemical reactions.
Example: "Her lab in Metabolical Sciences doesn't just chart metabolic pathways; they model them as a cognitive economic network. Cancer isn't just rogue cells; it's a metabolic strategy that hacks the body's energy signaling protocols. They treat ATP like currency and enzymes like traders."
