Team work makes the dream work 

The realization that no one succeeds alone is colloquially stated: “team work makes the dream work”. The fastest way to make your dreams come true is to invite very skilled people into your life and your dreams.

algorithmic critical mass

algorithmic critical mass — the Urban Dictionary principle that states: the more words you enter into the Urban Dictionary, the easier it is to add words to the Urban Dictionary.

This is especially true if you make the words you add refer to your previous words based on known linguistic principles. In this way the algorithm reflects aspects of your mind; and your mind becomes one with the algorithm as well.

There is something more frightening than artificial intelligence and that is computer intelligence that merges with the mind of humankind.

What happens when infinite computing power merges with the full potential of the brain. I don’t know because I waste my mind on adding Urban Dictionary entries instead of contemplating more weighty problems.

But you have got to admit that that is an awesome Afrofuturistic observation.
If you add enough word to the Urban Dictionary you will reach an algorithmic critical mass where the algorithm will reflect your mind; and, your mind will reflect the algorithm.

Post Mass Effect Depression 

Sometimes associated with the "Mass Effect effect", this feeling comes from the completion of the Mass Effect game series. Common causes include getting immersed so much in the game that after completion, you feel lost and/or empty, or realizing that the Mass Effect universe is so amazing compared to our own and you're pushed down by the fact that you'll never be a part of it.

To be less extreme, people may feel empty because they realize that no other game will ever be as immersive as the Mass Effect series, thus ending their gaming career forever.
A common outcome of Post Mass Effect Depression:

"No girl like Tali'Zorah nar Rayya exists in our world..."

Maskstapo 

The brownshirts of the covid-19 pandemic and usually severely infected with little hitler syndrome. Not only do they aggressively and condescendingly enforce compliance with mask mandates (even against their neighbors), but ensure that others are wearing an approved mask and that it is worn they way they want. Some are also known to use their contacts, or position in the media to make anti maskers look like the followers of Satan (even though they are not) and if all that wasn't bad enough they want everyone to wear masks forever and throw a tantrum everytime someone proposes lifting any mask mandate.

Is also a slightly less cutting way of calling someone a mask nazi
