So dang tired today. I'm dragging.

#Spoonie #Disability #NEISvoid

(spoon explanation in alt text)
A mug that says, "Out of spoons, but I do have a knife. So, good luck to you." For those unfamiliar with the spoons example in regards to disability, here's a quick overview of "The Spoons Theory." It originated with Christine Miserandino. She was describing to a friend her experience with lupus, but it's applicable across the board with debilitating conditions and disabilities related to mental and physical health. People with chronic conditions start off each day with a certain number of spoons. Each activity uses a spoon. For example, my shower today will use a spoon. We often run out out of spoons before we accomplish all that we need to in the day. You can't just generate spoons to accomplish more. However if I push things...I'll have less spoons tomorrow and possibly for the rest of the week. So, people with conditions that exhaust your ability to function often call themselves spoonies. If you're interested in knowing more, a search on "spoon theory" will get you there.

Discworld QOTD, from Feet of Clay
No more kings. Vimes had difficulty in articulating why this should be so, why the concept resonated in his very bones. After all, a good many of the patricians had been as bad as any king. But they were...sort of...bad on equal terms. What set Vimes's teeth on edge was the idea that kings were a different kind of human being. A higher lifeform. Somehow magical.
