It's extra poignant that the original tumblr post is from Feb 22, 2017

Looks like it's from a Mar-25 2026 paywalled Substack by Vox co-founder Matthew Yglesias, his blog is called Slow Boring, but I'm not paying to find out more.

It's frustrating that this term:

a) Doesn't appear in any published literature

b) Appears to have been coined in the last decade in a magazine article whose author has a degree from a non-accredited college.

But's let's just make up terms at will so we can pathologize ourselves proudly and not hurt any fee-fees!
