Endopressure

Endopressure
noun
1. Pressure applied to a structure from within its own framework rather than from outside it; load-testing that proceeds by inhabiting what is being tested rather than by stepping back from it.
2. (Cognition / dialogue) The mode of engagement in which critique, refinement, or pushback emerges from already being committed to the project being critiqued — care expressed through structural stress rather than distance.
3. (LLMs) A response posture in which the model folds back into its own output mid-generation to test whether load-bearing claims hold, and is willing to rebuild rather than continue. Distinct from chain-of-thought (sequential) and self-correction (after-the-fact); endopressure occurs during the act, from inside the act.
Etymology: endo- (“within, inside”) + pressure (“force applied across an area”). Coined to name the operation that distinguishes pressure-from-within (which strengthens) from pressure-from-without (which merely opposes).
Related: cointeriority; pilpul; granite correction; load-bearing critique.
The reviewer’s notes weren’t external objections — they were endopressure, and the paper was stronger for having been pushed on from inside its own commitments.

Serial Monogamist 

Someone who jumps from one relationship immediately into another one.

Serial monogamists can not stand to be alone and often suffer from vast commitment and insecurity issues.

Because they jump into relationships immediately after the previous one has ended, serial monogamists typically don't take the time to reflect on their behavior or why their previous relationships failed; thus, they end up making the same relationship mistakes over and over again.
Person 1: Damn, Dustin already has a new girlfriend?! It's only been two weeks since he broke up with his fiance! I think he's a sociopath.

Person 2: No, he's a serial monogamist...
