Minimalistic 

Minimalistic is a pretentious and, ironically, an overblown and maximalist way of saying minimal. Favoured by Millennial designers in talking about their work, it is now creeping into wider usage. It is only trumped by the use of minimalisticness.
I made it all monotone to keep everything as minimalistic as possible.

I'm a real minimalistic designer.
I love the minimalisticness of the typography!

meat minimalist 

Someone who eats a minimal amount of meat in their diet. Though not vegetarian, a meat minimalist will live on a mostly plant-based diet that is augmented by small amounts of meat. A meat minimalist doesn't restrict eating a specific kind of meat but will eat small amounts of a variety of animals. The goals of a meat minimalist are to reduce the detrimental effects of mass production of meat products on the environment, economy and human/animal health. In addition, meat minimalism helps support small, organic/all natural and sustainable farming practices.
I tried to be a vegetarian but I love many meat dishes; I'm now a meat minimalist and only eat meat once or twice a week. I always try and eat only meat from organic or naturally raised animals.

minimalist music 

A style of music originating in the 20th century. It is characterised by repeated motifs, varied slightly over a long period. Also common are long notes played over these repeated sections.

Interestingly enough, John Cage's famous silent piece 4'33'' is not considered minimalist, even though it is the most repetitive and minimal song ever composed.

Word of the Day on October 28, 2026
A lighthearted reaction upon receiving disappointing news of some sort. Usually something that isn't a particularly a big deal, esp. when it primarily affects someone else - sort of a mild schadenfreude. Sometimes doubled or tripled, and possibly said in a sing-songy voice for added comedic effect to imitate a muted trumpet, which is how the meme originated.
