sephism 

Share definition Flag
A religion devoted entirely to the goddess of destruction/chaos/life, Seph. Pretty much the best thing you could ever join without being a full blown satanist. If you are scared or intimidated by this religion, clearly you do not belong. The believers resemble those of cults all over the world, and make daily sacrifices to thier patron goddess. Not for the faint of heart, only the awesome need join.
"In the practice of Sephism, we sacrifice stupid people."

One-more-stepism

Share definition Flag
One-more-stepism (noun): A cyclical pattern of project obstruction where the completion of a task is perpetually delayed by the introduction of a new, unforeseen requirement, often presented as the final step. This phenomenon creates an endless loop of "just one more thing," preventing a project or goal from ever reaching a definitive conclusion.

Psychological Underpinnings
One-more-stepism is often a tactic of psychological manipulation, whether intentional or unintentional. It functions by creating a false sense of progress for stakeholders. By constantly presenting a new "final step," the orchestrator maintains the illusion that the project is on the verge of completion. This can:

Provide a sense of comfort and security: Team members or clients are reassured that work is advancing, which can lower scrutiny and quell anxieties about stagnation.

Exploit commitment bias: Individuals who have already invested significant time, energy, or resources are more likely to agree to "one more step" rather than abandon the project.

Serve as a delay tactic: Malicious actors, or "crooks", can use this method to prolong an engagement for their benefit, such as continuing to bill for services, extracting more resources, or avoiding a final deliverable that they cannot produce. It keeps the other party hooked on the promise of a resolution that never arrives.
