Science + Sorcery = Sciencery. Appropriating science in an officious, impressive sounding way that convinces many people but is utterly foolish, inappropriate and often dangerous

The "party of science" is a self given name by the Democratic party. The party of "science" believes in "science"...well except biology. The "party of science" listens, and takes seriously, those who accuse the mathematics of being racist. Recently, the "party of science" has also added people who claim "the scientific method is racist" and also take them seriously. The "party of science" absolutely loves critical race theory; The theory that seeks to judge people solely on their group identity and not on their individual character and then claim "racism" or "fragility" when people disagree.
It's a good thing "the party of science" made sure they labled math as racist before labeling the scientific method as such otherwise even members of "the party of science" may have a hard time figuring out how: "the party of science" plus the party of "science is racist" plus the party of "math is racist" equals everyone who is in the center right is racist.

In sales terms, a whale is a prospect that is significantly larger than an organization’s average customer.
Whales are large and extremely difficult to close. Due to their immense size, they are highly sought-after.
A whale is typically identified at first by a whale hunter on the sales team, but often requires cross-discipline participation in order to close; this includes assistance from operations, engineering, creative, client success, and business development teams.
"Shit...the sales director chewed me out on the sales call this morning. He's totally pissed that I have nothing in my pipeline. I've been focused on this one whale for so long that I haven't had time to prospect for normal-sized deals."
