...of this week

Word of the week
slacktivism: The act of participating in obviously pointless activities as an expedient alternative to actually expending effort to fix a problem. Signing an email petition to stop rampant crime is slacktivism. To achieve a safer community, the better solution would be to start a neighborhood watch.
