We hope you washed your dishes, because we're talking about spoon theory!
Coined in 2003 by American writer Christine Miserandino, spoon theory is a concept used widely in the disability community to convey how disabled people make do with limited energy. If you've ever heard someone mention being "out of spoons" or being a "spoonie", they're using spoon theory! In the time since its coining, spoon theory has come to be a significant metaphor in disabled dialogue, and other cutlery-based ideas have grown from it. Tune in to hear us discuss some of these theories.
