How to remove stripped and corroded toilet handle bolt

Trying to help my in-laws replace the broken handle on their toilet. I've tried using an adjustable wrench and a socket wrench while holding the little nub outside with a pliers and both just keep slipping off the nut.

They tried spraying WD-40 on the nut before I got there, but if anything it seems to have made it more slippery. I do have some graphite spray if that might help. I also have an oscillating multi tool that could probably cut the bolt off, but I figure that would probably shatter the porcelain. Any ideas?

edit: forgot to mention I am turning clockwise/righty-loosey

This AMV gave me a lot of feelings about Leo

I'm 50% posting this here because the stupid YT kids overlay thing won't let me comment or save it to my own playlist

Tales of the TMNT might have the best recaps I've ever seen

They could've gone the fairly basic route of just showing clips from the previous episode, but the voiceover really added to the experience. Especially in season 2 - the voiceover bits sometimes made me feel things, which is unprecedented.

The last episode in particular where Mikey's like "I'm sure it's no surprise that I messed everything up" had me going "oh, buddy..." before the episode even started.
