An intriguing phenomenon coined by Swifties that occurs when someone has openly disrespected or wronged Taylor Swift. According to swiftologists, a swirl of karma powered by Swift's reputation envelops the offender and drains the luck out of them, redirecting it under her control. It is known to cause serious and sometimes irreversible negative outcomes, such as accidents, decreased popularity, and a bigger chance of tanking overall.
Taylor unleashed an incredible wave of tayvoodoo on Katy Perry back then, and even though they reconciled in recent years, Perry still hasn't been able to recover in her career, as noted by her last 2 albums flopping.

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?"

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.”
