To get comfortably settled somewhere with absolutely no intention of moving for a long time. In Spain, apalancarse is that state of perfect inertia: sunk into the couch, sprawled at a friend's place, or planted in a job with zero urgency to change anything.
“He settled into the couch with a blanket and did not move all day.”
“We planted ourselves at the bar and did not leave until they kicked us out at closing.”

Apalancado
Completely settled in and comfortable somewhere with zero intention of moving, like you've taken root. In Spain, apalancado describes that person who's been parked on the sofa for three hours, or the houseguest who's been around for two weeks and clearly isn't leaving.
