Have I told y’all about my husband’s Fork Theory? If I did already, pretend I didn’t, I’m an old.
So the Spoon Theory is a fundamental metaphor used often in the chronic pain/chronic illness communities to explain to non-spoonies why life is harder for them. It’s super useful and we use that all the time. But it has a corollary. You know the phrase, “Stick a fork in me, I’m done,” right? Well, Fork Theory is that one has a Fork Limit, that is, you can probably cope okay with one fork stuck in you, maybe two or three, but at some point you will lose your shit if one more fork happens. A fork could range from being hungry or having to pee to getting a new bill or a new diagnosis of illness. There are lots of different sizes of forks, and volume vs. quantity means that the fork limit is not absolute. I might be able to deal with 20 tiny little escargot fork annoyances, such as a hangnail or slightly suboptimal pants, but not even one “you poked my trigger on purpose because you think it’s fun to see me melt down” pitchfork.
This is super relevant for neurodivergent folk. Like, you might be able to deal with your feet being cold or a tag, but not both. Hubby describes the situation as “It may seem weird that I just get up and leave the conversation to go to the bathroom, but you just dumped a new financial burden on me and I already had to pee, and going to the bathroom is the fork I can get rid of the fastest.”
TUMBLR USERS I NEED HELP
My dog got sprayed pretty bad by a skunk and I can't get the smell off. I washed her twice with a mix of Dawn, baking soda, and Hydrogen Peroxide and again with just Dawn. What should I do?
I need a website that can find an existing sewing pattern for a cosplay. I want to take a picture of what I want and I want to see a matching pattern.
If Brooklyn's Here was a person, it would be Steve Rogers.
Being in college is so weird. One day I'm a 1930's housewife and another I'm in a cemetery reciting poems about dead people.
This was the sign at my dog training facility...
This Barbie feels like she has been thrown down a flight of stairs.
Hear me out - books with blacklight ink.
It would be more efficient than glow in the dark ink because they would have to absorb light to begin with. And you could read at night in a car without blinding the driver.
You could get either a UV headlight or a UV book light.
I would spend way too much money on this
Does anyone have any good online job recommendations for someone who is disabled and still in school?
