indie folk

Bands that combine indie rock/pop and 50's/60's folk music of artists such as Bob Dylan and Nick Drake. Early artists include Will Oldham and Elliott Smith. There are a lot of indie bands that have folk influences like The Shins and Death Cab for Cutie, however these bands are not considered indie folk since they are not traditional folk bands due to the use synthesizers and keyboards and strong elements of other genres such as grunge, power pop and psychedelic rock.
Bright Eyes, Elliot Smith, The Dodos and Iron and Wine are all indie folk artists.

indiefocker 

Indiefocker is the LiveJournal name of Stef. Her posts are generally hilarious, and she's a good read. Also, she's pretty hot and has a nice arse.

Her username is a joke, supposedly a play on the term "indie rocker" and also a homage to a cat she had named Focker.
Indiefocker, motherfucker.

Stealthie 

when you're holding up your phone and making faces at it, as though you are taking a selfie, but you're really taking a picture of the person across from you or the wall or anything else that seems interesting but you don't want to be caught dead taking a picture of.

This action is often made more convincing by wiggling the eyebrows or opening the mouth, to pretend you're trying to get a Snapchat filter to work.
FRIEND A: "Did you just take a stealthie of me?"

FRIEND B (turning phone around): "no I was just using snapchat's new filter, see?"

The grindset is a contemporary ideology of self-exploitation disguised as strength, deeply tied to the aesthetics of the “sigma male” and to new digital forms of patriarchy. It promotes the idea that human worth depends on productivity, economic success, absolute emotional control, and the ability to work endlessly, turning vulnerability, rest, community, and tenderness into signs of weakness. Beneath its rhetoric of discipline and power often lies a profound inability to relate healthily to pain, fragility, and human interdependence.
“That’s the grindset, brother. While weak men sleep and complain, sigma males stay disciplined, work in silence, suppress emotions, and build power while everyone else wastes time chasing comfort.”
