T.A.T Communications Company

A television production company founded in 1974 by the late Norman Lear and talent agent Jerry Perenchio which produced a bunch of successful sitcoms during its period of activation, and then it was bought out by a bunch of companies during the early 1980s.

The company is particularly infamous in the logo community for its on-screen logo that was likely introduced in 1979, a logo that still wasn't fully discovered as of today (only 2 recordings of its jingle and a split-second of "Cheesy Star" footage exists). It has also been theorized there is another variant of the logo dubbed the "Rising Star" that takes place on a blue background and with a white star, however no footage of that has ever surfaced.

There is a chance of finding the full uncut logo in early 2024, regarding a forthcoming digitization of some 1979-1980 One Day at a Time tapes discovered at the Syracuse University in New York. The logo community has all their fingers crossed for this event.

Guy 1: Damn, how come the T.A.T Communications Company logo still isn't found...
Guy 2: I don't know! Fingers crossed for the Syracuse tapes though!!!

T.A.T. Communications Company

A television production company founded in 1974 by the late Norman Lear and talent agent Jerry Perenchio that produced The Jeffersons and One Day at a Time, among others. In 1976, T.A.T. formed its own distribution division. On January 6, 1982, T.A.T. Communications Company was reincorporated as "Embassy Communications, Inc." and renamed the T.A.T. production division as "Embassy Television" (now ELP Communications) with the acquisition of Avco Embassy Pictures Corporation by Lear and Perenchio, while the distribution division of this company was renamed "Embassy Telecommunications". T.A.T. Communications Company is currently known as "ELP Communications", and serves as an in-name-only unit of Sony Pictures Television.

The company is particularly infamous in the logo community for its on-screen logo that was likely introduced in 1979, a logo that was fully discovered for the very first time on December 28, 2024. A theory of that there is another variant of the logo dubbed the "Rising Star" (that takes place on a blue background and with a white star) started spreading thereafter.

Stealthie

when you're holding up your phone and making faces at it, as though you are taking a selfie, but you're really taking a picture of the person across from you or the wall or anything else that seems interesting but you don't want to be caught dead taking a picture of.

This action is often made more convincing by wiggling the eyebrows or opening the mouth, to pretend you're trying to get a Snapchat filter to work.

FRIEND A: "Did you just take a stealthie of me?"

FRIEND B (turning phone around): "no I was just using snapchat's new filter, see?"

Grindset

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.”
