The sudden, heavy wave of existential dread or anxiety over things you are obligated to do, often hitting you late at night or right before dawn.

Transliterated from the 1,000-year-old Old English word ūhtceara (dawn-anxiety), blending the modern word "ought" (duty) with "care" (worry).

I woke up at 3:00 AM completely paralyzed by oughtcare, just staring at the ceiling thinking about all the emails I haven't replied to and the projects I'm behind on.

Ratfucker

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.
