Labels: derogatory, neologism, uncountable Example: Slopulism, as described by these commentators, is a kind of political post that elides concrete political concerns in favor of the fast-acting satisfactions of social media rage and culture-war jargon. Example: But Democratic lawmakers are failing just as badly to articulate an alternative vision. Instead, some of them seem to be trying to out-Trump the president with their own brand of “slopulism”—half-baked policy proposals that sound good only if you don’t think too hard about them, and that would, if enacted, hurt the people they’re supposed to help.
Word: slopulist Part of Speech: adj Etymology: Blend of slop + populist. 1. Of, pertaining to, or characterized by slopulism.

Example: The slopulist impulse may be most acute on the right at the moment — owing to the Republican control of the federal government — but some have argued this mode of online political engagement has its origins across the aisle.
Word: slopulist Part of Speech: noun Etymology: Blend of slop + populist. 1. Someone who is perceived to practice slopulism. Labels: derogatory, neologism Example: Rather than addressing the issues they were elected to address, slopulists just need to give their base an opportunity to grandstand over someone else, giving them the feeling of “winning”, and they are just let off the hook. Example: The spectacle of "owning the libs" may satisfy the slopulists, but it doesn’t address the substantive issues that fueled Trump's rise.

Word: pleasuredom Part of Speech: noun Etymology: By surface analysis, pleasure + -dom, but almost undoubtedly influenced by pleasuredome; not attested therebefore. 1. Synonym of pleasure. Labels: countable, uncountable Example: He looked at the card twice; and was ashamed to think that he was actually tempted to stick it on the chimney-piece; but he thought how contemptible this would be, and even took the trouble to throw it into the fire. And now what cheer? A small note and a woman's hand-writing—more palpitations of the heart! Better by far live in the wilderness, beware of pleasuredom, and seek a "world of glass." But dry wood will burn. What another of the elect! Even so, poor daughter of sin and shame! She once had reigned as queen of hearts. What filthy kennels the clearest streams are sometimes turned to! Example: Alice's small room was a bewildering picture of girlish vanities and pretty disorder. A pale blue brocade, which contrasted well with her fair skin and heavy yellow hair, occupied the bed; a mountain of fresh white garments, tucked and fluted, were thrown over a chair, like foam tossed up by a playful sea; jewelry, laces, and numberless pretty toilet articles covered the dresser, while the daintiest of slippers reposed on another chair, as if resting before a long march into pleasuredom. Mandy was in attendance and performed her duties very quietly and unobtrusively for a common colored girl, Alice thought. She did not know that she was too much accustomed to assisting at Queenie Gray's pretty toilets to lose her head or even to be surprised over anything of the kind, and that she was at that moment comparing the two girls, in her homely mind, to the no small disadvantage of the beautiful society belle. 2. Synonym of pleasuredome. Labels: countable, uncountable Example: Fellow members of the Bohemian Club, august sanctuary of San Francisco tradition, most of them shared a mellow view of architecture and were damned if they would kill themselves advancing the modern cause in new materials and organic form. New York City's 1939 Fair already had a lien on the World of Tomorrow, Chairman Kelham and crew therefore plumped for a pleasuredom on "Treasure Island," an imaginative, quasi-Oriental 'Never-Never-Land'. Conceivably, nothing could have been worse. Fortunately, the Fair architects had taste in using their natural site […]

Word: prebursal Part of Speech: adj Etymology: From pre- + bursa + -al. 1. Proximal to a bursa. Labels: not-comparable, uncommon Example: This structure is not, as it seems at first sight, a papilla, but forms a ridge crossing the ventral aspect of the worm. Caudad of this prominence the bursa begins. The first ray (Fig. 67), long and thin with a characteristic curve, has its papilla on the external surface of the bursa. It obviously represents the prebursal papilla of those bursate nematodes which possess one. The next ray is equally long but wider. It arises at a slight distance from the first, approaches it and then diverges somewhat again. It is split for half its length only, the more cephalad part being the thinner, and the two papillæ in which it ends lying on the inner surface of the bursa. It is obviously the ventral ray with incomplete sub-divisions. The next three rays are quite obviously the three lateral rays. They lie nearly in apposition with incurved points, the most cephalad ending on the outer surface of the bursa, the other two on its inner surface. The externo-dorsal ray is long and thin, taking off from the main stem of the dorsal ray 0·15 mm. from its base, and ending on the outer surface of the bursa. At a point 0·25 mm. from the beginning of the dorsal ray it divides into its two main branches. These diverge gradually at an acute angle and then approach more abruptly, running thereafter side by side to diverge slightly at their tips. The total length of the dorsal ray is 1·7 mm. Viewed from the side it bends abruptly ventrad soon after giving off a small branch, which it does at a distance of 0·3 mm. from the base of the externo-dorsal ray, and then bends as abruptly into its original caudad direction.
