white knuckling 

When you're taking a situation as it comes and flying by the seat of your pants. Often attributed to anxiety, and feelings either good or bad. A reference to clinging fiercely to something, such as a rope, to the point where ones knuckles would turn white from forcing blood from the capillaries.

Jesus, I'm sweating, I was white knuckling my way through that interview. Those guys are scary.

White-knuckling the basket

The disregarded worry stemming from sleeping with a promiscuous woman who hasn't been tested.

I knew she'd been with a lot of men, but I couldn't resist. I was white-knuckling the basket through the entire session.

Grindset

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.”
