To retcon a character in a work and make them represent a minority community of the creator’s choice all along, even if it wasn’t mentioned at all in the source material.
Named after the character Prof. Dumbledore from the Harry Potter series, when author JK Rowling announced that Dumbledore is gay without explicitly stating or hinting it in the source text.
Blizzard has been Dumbledoring many of their characters in Overwatch recently. First Tracer is a Lesbian and then Symmetra is an autist. Now words confirmed that Soldier 76 is gay.
The act of ret-conning a character or historical figure as being homosexual (or some other sexuality) after the fact for the sake of being inclusive or feeing included with little regard for any evidence to the contrary.
Disney has recently ret-conned Donald Duck as being trans. I’m tired of all this Dumbledoring going on.
An intense desire to die or to be killed as a means of escape from something worse than death, as seen in The Half-Blood Prince when Dumbledore screams "Kill me!" while drinking the poisoned water.
Dude, I am NEVER drinking Jim Beam straight again! I was totally Dumbledoring last night!

The most badass wizard to ever live. He won a duel against Gellert fucking Grindelwald, was named the most powerful wizard of his time, and was even headmaster of Hogwarts for a while, until he ordered Severus Snape to kill him because he fucked up his hand on a ring - one of Voldemort's horcruxes - which he destroyed. Like a boss.
Harry: I'm Dumbledore's man through and through.

Dumbledore is the ex-headmaster of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. He is the only one who Voldemort ever feared. He is around 150 years old, and is the most powerful wizard in the world at this time. He has worked at hogwarts from before 1945-1996. He can speak many languages, and is known for finding the 12th use of dragons blood. He is friends with an ancient alchemist, Nicholas Flamel, rumored to be the creator of the "Philosopher's Stone" which can turn any metal into pure gold, and can create the elixer of life, which will render the drinker immortal for a specific amount of time. He has been asked to be the minister of magic many times, but he enjoys his life at hogwarts too immensely to even consider that.

"I will only truly have left this school none here are loyal to me... Help will always be given at Hogwarts to those who ask for it." ~Albus Dumbledore, HP&TCOS
