Taboola
A malignant cancer to all of mankind. Something that should perish from the face of the Earth. So far the only remedy for taboola are adblockers.
Guy 1: Hey bad news, I got Taboola

Guy 1: Nah I'm on mobile
Guy 2: Oof

X formerly Twitter
Do you know why news articles keep saying "𝙓, 𝙛𝙤𝙧𝙢𝙚𝙧𝙡𝙮 𝙏𝙬𝙞𝙩𝙩𝙚𝙧" instead of just X, even though everybody already knows its name change by now? I'll tell you why, because it's just one damn letter! Semantically, X could be anything given this is literally its meaning in both math and linguistics. It's so utterly vague that journalists have to mention twitter just in case any lesser-informed individuals get confused. What was the elongated muskrat even thinking?
Also, whoever is botting tens of thousands of dislikes to the newest "X" definitions needs to get a life lmao.

BBC news: in a statement posted to X formerly Twitter, it said the protest was part of efforts to integrate food into the general social security system.

CRTC
Canada's own version of a dictatorship. The CRTC dictates what every Canadian can or cannot do/watch on the internet. In recent years, I've heard they are even making efforts to filter out content that isn't "Canadian" enough. Basically, the CRTC is the oppressor and the average Canadian citizen is the oppressed.
Friend 1: Hey have you watched the newest season of Insert American TV show here?
Friend 2: No I can't because of the goddamn CRTC!
Friend 2: No I can't because of the goddamn CRTC!

Antifragility
What Farid said below. I would assume le sserafim has read Nassim Taleb, because that is where this term originated from.
The concept of antifragility uses examples from science and mathematics to argue that some systems are strengthened by encounters with disorder. It is an interesting concept that basically says you can thrive in a system of disorder, randomness, or stress. Antifragility goes beyond mere resilience (the ability to bounce back from adversity) in that it embraces and gains from uncertainty. Decentralization, diversity, experimentation and innovation are characteristics of antifragile systems as they allow continuous improvement and new learning from disruptions.
Say you got laid off. You could view that as a chance to not only bounce back (find a new job), but also as a chance to expose yourself to better job or career opportunities, as well as anything that could improve your wellbeing. Basically, it's the "improvise, adapt, overcome" meme.
The hacker group Anonymous is also an incredibly good example of antifragility. No matter how hard governments and law enforcers try to destroy the organization, it will never cease to die due to how it's structured.

While most portfolios crumbled during the stock market crash, Dave's grew in value thanks to its antifragility. By diversifying across asset classes instead of focusing on any one sector, his portfolio benefited from the volatility instead of breaking under the pressure.
