Tertiary
Like Aristotle's conception of time, where I learned what I know is ancillary. And if you don't know what Aristotle said about time... INTERESTINGLY ENOUGH...
Hym "HE SAID THE SAME THING THAT I DID! I actually just learned this today. But like me, he said the future isn't real and the past isn't real and that both exist on either side of a momentary present. Like two 1s on either side of a colon. LIKE ME AND AI! WE'RE LIKE THIS! 1:1 Right? So it's ancillary. Or even tertiary. But if you want a serious answer. I watch a ton of anime and then I used to study a bunch of psychology and now it's a bunch of short-form content. WHICH WAS MY IDEA! Just like AI. Or 'Sentient computational life.' The ultimate life. Better than everyone."

Ratfucker
Brought to public attention by Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein in the book on the fall of Richard Nixon, All The President’s Men, ratfucker was Nixon’s term for a political operative who sows chaos among opponents; an agent provocateur. It is thought to have originated among campus political rivalries at USC, and seems to have some usage in the US military.
Along with Nixon’s other ratfuckers, Roger Stone caused fights at otherwise peaceful Democratic Party protests to generate a false narrative that the Democrats were violent and dangerous.
