Intersectionality 

Enough with these long and overly rambly definitions. Intersectionality is a sociological concept that simply denotes how one's race, gender, and socioeconomic class is all interconnected with each other. Simple as that.

Likewise, the term can also denote how race, gender, and class are NOT separate categories, but rather is like a system of categories that are linked to one another.

What this basically means is that a person's identity, and how it may be used to discriminate against them, is multidimensional and depends on the sum of all those aspects (race, gender, class). For example, in the 1950s, the common discourse back then was that black people are being treated unfairly. But what people don't realize at the time was that black women are being treated more unfairly than black men.

So, that is what Intersectionality is in a nutshell. It does not mean anything else, and it should not mean anything else. It is not a derogatory word used to express hatred. It is not political leftist jargon. It is does not originate from Marxist thought. It is not used to express one's 'privilege' over another. So please stop attributing these irrelevant and slandering aspects to this rather insightful term!
Victor: Dang, my sociology prof gave us a super woke lecture on intersectionality.
Chad: Intersectionality? Sounds like another one of those cringey buzzwords used by feminists and SJWs
Victor: Lol, well I hate the break it to you but ur more than wrong. It's a very useful and helpful concept. You only think it's cringey because of the few bitter women who wrongfully use it as a retort in Twitter debates.
Chad: Lol whatever, idc
Victor: Then why'd you even ask???

Intersectional Shakedown 

Protection racket where disadvantaged groups, whether real or perceived, sell protection from false hate accusations for concessions from others.
What?! They wouldn't accept you in to college because your test scores are bad? Just give them the intersectional shakedown and tweet that it was racism, sexism and homophobia.

circle intersection theory 

The awkward situation one gets into when you meet a certain circle of friends (whom you've not seen in some time) when your hanging out with a different set. There is nothing common between the two circles and your forced to introduce each other and spend the rest of the nite togather.
Most common would be school/college/office/girlfriend/family circles . Your stuck on
#1 :' Man, was it awkward running into Joe and the gang from school when I was with my office collegues..total circle intersection theory
#2: werd

Intersectional Racism 

The kind of racism that Intersectional Feminists espouse while insisting it’s not racism.

These people give themselves a supposed out by saying that shitting on another person simply because of their color or another arbitrary feature (such as being male, old, etc.) is okay as long as they are a member of a majority group and therefore hold “social power”. Because of that, the Intersectionalist thinks they can act with impunity from their prejudice because they have less “power” than the person they’re being racist against. Figure that one out.
Woman: I’m so proud. My grandfather is receiving the keys to the city in recognition of his helping the homeless here for over 30 years.
Intersectional womxn: Yeah, he’s helped a bunch of white people who are street trash, more like.
Woman: Jeez. I mean, this is a majority white city, so I suppose many are white, but he helps anyone who comes to him regardless of race.

Intersectional womxn: Fuck him. He’s a cisgendered old white male. His “good deeds” aren’t worth shit. I gave a black trans womxn a hug the other day, which makes me better than your grandfather.
Woman: Wow. That sounds like some intersectional racism type bullshit.
Intersectional womxn: Hah. I’m brown, Muslim and lesbian. There’s no way I can be racist. So fuck you too, white bitch.

No Surprises Wedding

A "No Surprises Wedding," or NSW, is a wedding invitation designation that tells attendees that there can be no unplanned announcements, engagements, events or speeches at the wedding - all actions must be pre-approved by the couple. Anyone who performs an unapproved "surprise" will be asked to leave the wedding early.

This designation comes from Reddit, where so many stories of bad wedding behavior indicated a need to communicate expectations for the wedding behavior of attendees.
You are cordially invited to the nuptials of Brian and Tom on October 31 at noon.

Please note that this wedding is child-free (under 10) and a No Surprises Wedding (NSW). Reach out to wedding planner Sami Smith to request approvals or exceptions; please note that exceptions will be rare. Limited child care for under-10s will be available. All approvals will be noted and included in planning. Unapproved, or surprise exceptions, will result in guests being asked to leave.

EBK stands for "Elite Ball Knowledge." 1 In internet slang, "ball knowledge" originally referred to a deep understanding of football/soccer or basketball, but it has evolved into a broader term for having a highly sophisticated, deep, or niche understanding of any specific topic (such as music, movies, or subcultures).
Person A: "That scene was a direct homage to an unreleased 1982 Japanese indie film."
Person B: "Wow, EBK."

Texas is categorized as a swing state in presidential elections, but has voted for Republicans more times than for Democrats in recent history. As such, as demographics change political alignments, some Democrats believe that Texas will vote blue, or Democratic, due to their Hispanic and African American voters, who often align themselves with the Democratic Party's liberal wing.

Blexas has been cited as possible in the upcoming decades, but only if Democrats continue to win the Hispanic vote in bigger margins.
Democrat 1: What is your prediction for the 2024 presidential election?
Democrat 2: Well uh, Blexas!
Democrat 1: You've been saying that since 2008 though.
