Washed up

A celebrity that finds it hard to hide the fact that they're lying, and it shows.

That celebrity was so washed up when talking about climate change that I thought she was having a stroke.

Bountyism

When the police force is inadequate, a system of bountyism is often put in place, wherein a bounty is placed on a criminal for the citizens to take down.

There is a severe lack of bountyism in American politics.

orbiter

A guy who pussyfoots around a specific woman, or women in general, in hopes of getting laid. This almost never works out, as he stays around her dawdling, ogling, and daydreaming rather than actually approaching her.

The orbiter sat patiently as he watched her. Then her boyfriend came along and he knew he had to go.

liberal

Someone who prioritizes the liberty of the citizen over the wants of the government (control, mostly). This definition is getting outdated, and if you identify as a liberal nowadays you'll get scorned by conservatives who use it as a buzzword for anyone left-leaning. The reality is that this French Revolution-era term can be mixed with any position on the left-right spectrum, and is on an independent axis, the opposite being authoritarianism.

Yes, I'm a liberal. I believe in the liberty of the citizen overgovernmental control.
