A lot of this time has been dedicated to "hurrying up and waiting," and so I have had some time to sit here and think.

And I came up with silly personalized nerd names for all my email box, task, calendar, etc. labels!! 😻

I will only share a few, out of respect for your time:

☸️ Ellimenory
  💠 This is the name for the category label that holds all of my various email boxes in one place 
  💠 Etymology: Elli- (me!) + limen (Gk. λιμήν, "harbor," "port") + -ory (Lat. -orium, "place for")

☸️ Ellisallagment
  💠 Meaning: These are financial tasks, obligations, dates, or communications. Anything related with financial or money matters.
  💠 Etymology: Elli- (me!) + allagē (Gk. ἀλλαγή, "exchange," "barter") + -ment (Lat. -mentum, "result," "act of") 

☸️ Ellisbibliphiloca
  💠 Meaning: The category label for the list of books I own that were authored and/or published by personal friends.
  💠 Etymology: Ellis- (me!) + biblíon (Gk. βιβλίον, "book") + philía (Gk. φιλία, "friendship") + -ca (Gk. thēkē, "receptacle") 

☸️ Ellisbiblisaureca
  💠 Meaning: My "treasure" archive of books to read and of things to do and to explore. Someone found it interesting that I choose to treasure the unknown rather than attaching this word to books I'd already read and known that I liked. I just said, "Why would I hold onto a future responsibility I didn't treasure enough to make the burden worth it?"
  💠 Etymology: Ellis- (me!) + biblíon (Gk. βιβλίον, "book") + thēsauros (Gk. θησαυρός, "treasure," "storehouse") + -ca (Gk. thēkē, "receptacle")

☸️ Ellistheronomy
  💠 Meaning: All tasks and calendar events and communications directly related to my personal physical and mental health.
  💠 Etymology: Elli- (me!) + therapeía (Gk. θεραπεία, "healing," "care," "service") + -nomy (Gk. νομία, "system of laws," "management")

☸️ Ellithekium
  💠 Meaning: My savings account. 😺
  💠 Etymology: Elli- (me!) + thek (Gk. , "case," "box," "chest," "receptacle") + -ium (Lat. -ium, "a place for")

☸️ Ellymiktry
  💠 Meaning: The box that holds "All the Other Things™."
  💠 Etymology: Elli- (me!) + mikta (Gk. μικτά, "mixed things," from sýmmikta) + -ry (Eng. "place of," "practice of")

That's not even a quarter of them all. Dear gods, please tell me it isn't just me? 😅💙♾️

The study bridges #linguistics and #environmental #psychology to show how new words help conceptualize climate issues and potentially trigger social tipping points.

Ever notice how nobody 'solves' problems anymore? They solution them. And teams aren't busy—they're 'driving proactive synergy in adaptive ecosystems'.

It's not just silly—it's dangerous. Hype, jargon, and semantic inflation erode clarity, trust, and accountability in organisational life.
