rate bloomer

Comes from Nex R’s song “Rate Bloomer”. This phrase refers to someone who was not liked or popular beforehand but is now the top dawg and is now someone that everybody likes and rates.
“Suddenly, they all rate me, I’m a rate bloomer!”
A mix of a realist and an optimist the Bloomer stands opposite to his doomer counterpart. The Bloomer, just as the doomer, sees the world for what it really is: messy, hard, unforgiving, selfish etc. They don't live in a bubble but see the harsh reality of this world. However, where the boomer falls into pessimism or nihilism and refuses to do anything about the situation but await the end, the Bloomer has a positive outlook. He accepts the rules of the game and in it tries to make something of himself. He also sees the good sides of life, wants to live a happy life and be successful.
*during the corona crisis*
Doomer: "look at all these selfish people. They sit at each others throats, act like idiots, the economy plummets... Society is doomed."
Bloomer: "Yeah, I know that there are lot of dumb people out there, but there are a lot of smart people too! And look at all the solidarity! We'll get through this mate, we'll get back into the world and start rebuilding. It'll all be fine."

pod person 

A person pretending to be something they aren't, or an impostor. This is inferred because of the old alien movies where alien pods appear on earth and the "pod people" dispose of the humans and slowly reproduce the bodies, pretending to be humans.
The pod person was pretending to be my father, but I knew that he was an alien when he acted differently than my father ever would have.

A dead drop is a location used to secretly pass items between two people, without requiring them to meet.

Spies have been known to use dead drops, using various techniques to hide the items and to signal that the drop has been made. Drug dealers use this as well.

A common place is to duct tape the item to the underside of a toilet cover in a public restroom.

A signal is sometimes used as well to indicate there is something to pickup, like a pile of stones in a certain formation. After checking the drop the signal is removed.
"The dead drop is the restroom toilet at the Gulf station at the corner of Commercial Ave. and Georges Rd."
