I don’t know why I’m making this, but here are 2 crossword clues off the top of my head. (And no, no crosswords for you!)

Here is my guess for the first one:

To play rock, paper, scissors aggressively-

THROW HANDS- Throw hands is slang for getting into a fistfight. 'Throw' is also the action of displaying your sign in Rock, Paper, Scissors.

Edit: A guess for the second one:

Apolitical reactionist-

Is it REAGENT?- A+Regent (Political) and reagents are the things that cause a chemical reaction. Not sure about this one.

  • $\begingroup$ The second one is incorrect. Remember, these are crossword clues, not cryptics - I have zero business writing cryptics. $\endgroup$

I think this is SHAKE HANDS, a sort of play on words suggesting a particularly aggressive game of rock, paper, scissors.

I think this is NEUTRON which sounds apolitical ("neutral") but also sustains the chain reaction in a nuclear reactor ("reactionist").
