https://www.nytimes.com/2022/12/04/arts/goblin-mode-oxford-word.html?smid=nytcore-ios-share&referringSource=articleShare I was having such a Monday-y Monday but this news truly perked me up. What a wild year, y’all.

And I can admit being 8-months pregnant, working full-time, buying a house, and going into the holidays, there’s some goblin mode happening over here. #noragerts

"“Goblin mode” has been chosen by the public as the 2022 Oxford word of the year. The term, which refers to “a type of behaviour which is unapologetically self-indulgent, lazy, slovenly, or greedy, typically in a way that rejects social norms or expectations”... was a landslide victory: it was selected by 318,956 people, making up 93%of the overall vote."
