Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day

Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for January 3, 2025 is: addlepated • AD-ul-pay-tud • adjective Someone described as addlepated is mixed-up or confused. Addlepated can also be used as synonym of eccentric. // Some addlepated clerk confused our hotel reservation with that of another, similarly named, party. See the entry > Examples: “Overwhelmed and a little at sea (so to speak), this viewer combed these scenes for cinematic clues to whatever the narrative takeaway would be. ... The cinematic stuff was misdirection, and the mission ends with an addlepated navigator getting promoted because of his mistakes.” — Lili Loofbourow, The Washington Post, 26. Jan 2024 Did you know? In this hectic, often confusing world of ours, it's probably safe to say that even the sharpest thinkers—the wonks and eggheads among us—get a little addlepated from time to time. In fact, the idea of an addlepated egghead makes some etymological sense. Addlepated combines the words addle and pate. While the meaning of the somewhat rare noun pate (“head”) is straightforward, cracking open the adjective addle is where things get interesting. In Old English, the noun adela referred to filth, or to a filthy or foul-smelling place. In Middle English, adela came to be used as an adjective in the term adel eye, meaning “putrid egg.” For its first few centuries of adjectival use, and with various spellings, addle was used strictly for eggs, but in the 16th century it gained a figurative sense that, when applied disparagingly to people's heads or brains, suggested the diminished or rotten condition of an addle (or addled) egg. Today, addle is often found in combination with words referring to one's noggin, addlebrained, and addle-headed, and most common of all, addlepated.

Devin and Mark are healing the world with podcasting—about Bo Burnham's new special (?)/movie (?)/musical (?)/uncategorizable work of semi-autobiographical art that's streaming on Netflix and setting Twitter and TikTok ablaze. We pick favorite songs and moments; dissect the piece's complicated and conflicting ideas about the Internet and mental health; and try to understand how Burnham and his work achieved a rare kind of pop culture ubiquity. Read Craig Jenkins on Burnham's music; Richard Brody on the tradition of "cinematic selfies"; and Lili Loofbourow on the special's artifice. Listen to Who Weekly on Bo Burnham's celebrity persona.

In March, President Trump blamed our global pandemic on China. When that didn't work, he blamed the World Health Organization (WHO) for not responding quickly enough to the virus. When that didn't work, he blamed governors for not getting their own supplies. Now, he says immigrants will take away American jobs. The Bible defines a scapegoat as one of two kid goats. One goat was sacrificed and the living “scapegoat” was supposed to absorb the sins of the community and carry them into the wilderness. Is that what's happening here? Are the president's scapegoats supposed to carry away the sins of Mr. Trump? Also this hour: Politics and our human need for a scapegoat has defined the way we name diseases almost as much as the goal of accurately describing a threat to public health. And, the story of one of our earliest scapegoats, the sin-eater.
