Rightsizing 

The society-friendly term for downsizing/laying off people, in an attempt to make the situation look less grim. Recently used in the media by companies who have overspent or mismanaged their budget and have to cut spending somewhere, yet they continue to pay outrageuos salaries to CEOs, Presidents, Vice-Presidents, etc.
"I'm so broke since the layoff, I can't pay my rent. It's depressing!"

"Well, if you get evicted maybe you can offer to house-sit for Jon Moneybags. I hear he has a huge house, and he'll be on vacation in Hawaii for two weeks.

"Great idea. It's a good thing that he's the Big Cheese and wasn't affected by the rightsizing."

Right-sizing Expectations

When someone humbles tf outta you but you need to downplay the embarrassment.

When someone is being out of pocket and you have to reality check them.
P: I don't want to be intimate with Shrek, so weird of you to say.
C: Do I need to remind you that I've seen your tiktok?
P: That message was so humbling.
C: It wasn't meant to be humbling, it's just right-sizing expectations.
The grindset is a contemporary ideology of self-exploitation disguised as strength, deeply tied to the aesthetics of the “sigma male” and to new digital forms of patriarchy. It promotes the idea that human worth depends on productivity, economic success, absolute emotional control, and the ability to work endlessly, turning vulnerability, rest, community, and tenderness into signs of weakness. Beneath its rhetoric of discipline and power often lies a profound inability to relate healthily to pain, fragility, and human interdependence.
“That’s the grindset, brother. While weak men sleep and complain, sigma males stay disciplined, work in silence, suppress emotions, and build power while everyone else wastes time chasing comfort.”
