The "sea-elves", in the work of Tolkien. One of the three clans of elves who crossed the sea (under the leadership of Olwe), although the elves led by Cirdan, who remained in a region of Beleriand known as the Falas, are also counted among the Teleri. (The Sindar, who are of the same clan, appear to be considered separate because they did not reach the sea).

Closest to Ulmo among the Valar, the Teleri dwell in coastal towns whether in Valinor or Middle-Earth. They play a minor role in the Silmarillion; their main dwelling-places in Beleriand were the cities of Vinyamar and Eglarest in the Falas. In Lord of the Rings, the elves dwelling in Lindon and the Grey Havens, including the still-resident Cirdan, are Teleri.
The Teleri are great ship-builders, although their greatest ships were stolen by Feanor and the Noldor in the Kinslaying. These ships were later burnt by Feanor at Loscar, in a gesture of hostility towards Fingolfin, whom he had left in the lands near Valinor.

the manny will not be televised 

"The Manny will not be televised" is a phrase used as a chant for revolution, particularly in regards to police reformation. It was coined by user @themannyspotted on TikTok at an Oregon protest sometime in early-mid 2020, and is a reference to both the 1970 song/poem "The Revolution Will Not Be Televised" by Gil Scott-Heron, and the Diary of a Wimpy Kid character Manny Heffley.

The phrase is typically used as either a chant at a police reformation/Black Lives Matter protest, or as a social media caption for pictures of political graffiti featuring Manny Heffley's head, in support of the movement.
"See that Black Lives Matter graffiti? The Manny will not be televised!"

Parent Television Council 

A bunch of goody two shoe arseholes who believe it's a better choice to watch after other children when instead, they should be watching their own.

They're globally known as "attention whores" and "giant cry babies"

They also believe in the fact that the world will be balanced, if there were only G - Rated shows on TV. If that was the case, teenagers would ultimately die from boredness.

The point is, PTC is nothing but a bunch of selfish adults, who believe that Television will kill the minds of ANYONE. If they read this, they would waste their valuable time tracking my ass down, and direct me to the Police because I was "cyber bullying".

This is nothing but the truth.

A slang term for GLP-1 medications(like Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, etc.), usually referring to their appetite-killing, weight-loss, or “I forgot to eat” effects rather than the medical details.

Usage:
* Often casual, ironic, or meme-y
* Can imply effortless weight loss, suppressed hunger, or being “powered by pharmaceuticals”

Notes:
Not a brand name—just shorthand for the whole GLP-1 wave. Frequently shows up in online jokes, gym talk, and group chats where people pretend they’re *totally* doing it naturally.
