incrementalism 

The slippery slope that often causes generally principled people to slide into unethical behavior.
Although we have all come to understand that the Fraudster in Chief has no internal ethics compass to begin with, it seems more likely that many of the lifelong public servants who wound up in his thugsphere fell victim to what philosopher Jonathan Glover describes as the following process: “Incrementalism is how we slide into participation by imperceptible degrees so there is never the sense of a frontier being crossed.”

Word of the Day on October 17, 2026
A slang term for GLP-1 medications(like Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, etc.), usually referring to their appetite-killing, weight-loss, or “I forgot to eat” effects rather than the medical details.

Usage:
* Often casual, ironic, or meme-y
* Can imply effortless weight loss, suppressed hunger, or being “powered by pharmaceuticals”

Notes:
Not a brand name—just shorthand for the whole GLP-1 wave. Frequently shows up in online jokes, gym talk, and group chats where people pretend they’re *totally* doing it naturally.
“I’m not dieting, I’m just on that glippy.”
“Ever since the glippy hit, food feels optional.”
“That summer body? Yeah, glippy assisted.”
