Train Whistle — the new “dog whistle”. The current idiom “saying the quiet part out loud” points to the idea that a new term must be used to discuss impolite political discourse. Dogs can her at a frequency that humans cannot; so, the old idiom “dog whistle” pointed to a subtle statement.

Well, in 2023, both irony and subtlety are dead hence the new term “Train Whistle. If you can’t hear you are deaf.

Visiting insurrection prisoners on the eve of the 30th anniversary of the Waco Texas standoff; scheduling a Republican Presidential rally in Waco Texas on the anniversary; and Trump’s proclamation that he is “THE RETRIBUTION” of the Republican Party and MAGA; Trump’s threatening doom and destruction if indicted — this — collectively — isn’t a dog whistle it’s a Train Whistle.

It’s in your face; and, there is no more “quite part” to say out loud. IT’S ALL OUT LOUD IN THE RANGE OF HUMAN HEARING!!!!!!

When someone occupies a weight machine so you can't use it but they just sit there, napping, texting, chatting, whatever.

I'm lifting and I look around to see the nine other people all doing proximity effect training.

pajama casual

Pajama casual is a term used when working from home and preparing for a video conference. All business above the waist and your pajama pants down below.

We have a Zoom meeting in a few minutes and I’ll probably go pajama casual.
