My two most valuable records are the Katamari Damacy vinyl from Fangamer & the Sonic Adventure 2 vinyl from Brave Wave. I got both for $40 at different conventions and they’ve never been re-pressed so they both go for $250 sometimes, even used.

“What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger”

Both my two-time-car-crash-survivor self with severe PTSD and my breast-cancer-surviving mom (who had to get her boobs chopped off) fucking hate that phrase with a passion. There are some times I have to walk across an intersection and just start crying right there because I’m so terrified. I want to kick the nuts off of whoever came up with that phrase.

To add to everyone else’s replies, there’s also the muxe gender in Zapotec culture (indigenous southern mexico), which is thought to have been around since before Spanish colonization

I would agree with the other comments here and say the best thing to do would be to vet sources. Things like ‘looking through a commenter’s history’ or ‘reading the About Us section of a news site’ and ‘looking at more than just the top 3 results from Google for sources’.
