Language: English
Part of speech: noun
Senses: examples: text: My fear isn’t that [Laurence] Fox will be mayor of London: it’s that trying to be mayor of London will make more people aware of him, and, long story short, in five years’ time Commander Fox will change the national anthem to one of his hoary folksongs, and we’ll all have to endure a 40-year reign of him conveying his profoundly, almost medically divorced energy through a series of croakingly posh national addresses.

text: Inevitable, really, that a song called “I Drink Wine” would land in the top flight of a “divorced energy” list, but it’s not just the title that gets this one here. This mid-tempo piano track has a “getting up to sing in a bar on a night out that the girlies have brought you on to stop you crying into a Pot Noodle for the fourth night in a row” vibe, and when I hear her singing it I imagine her wearing a plaid shirt and sploshing a glass of Pinot about like Connie Britton in Friday Night Lights. Which is a good aesthetic, really.

text: Why, some wondered on Twitter, did Mr. Musk have four open cans of caffeine-free Diet Coke next to his pillow? What was up with the image of George Washington crossing the Delaware River? Were either of the two guns he had on display real? (Observers said they looked like non-firing replicas—one of Washington’s own, the other from the videogame “Deus Ex: Human Revolution”—though Mr. Musk has not corroborated their observations.) The internet was quick to quip about the chaotic display and the “divorced energy” the items evoked.
