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.”

[cipheramnesia]

I like this and also I like the low key point that you may be able to cope with bigger forks by finding little ones you can remove quickly. A combination of time, focus, and reduction to small stressors that can allow you to focus on the larger stressor in a constructive way.

[catmeme-moved]

ok are u all ready

cut 6 perfect squares out of fabric(s) of ur choice, mine are 3x3 inches but urs can be bigger or smaller. make them all different colors if u want! go hogwild w this

[catmeme-moved]

take 2 of those bad boys and sew one edge of them together

[catmeme-moved]

sew a 3rd square on! repeat w the next 2 squares, we r making a cube

[catmeme-moved]

5 squares sewn n now u got a funky cup! time for the 6th square

[catmeme-moved]

when u sew on the last square, be sure to leave part of one edge unsewn, this is so u can flip it inside out and stuff it!

now it's stuffin time

[catmeme-moved]

stuff with some stuffing or u can use fabric scraps, whatever u have on hand. now we have a plump cube

time to sew up the little hole with a ladder stitch! im using a different colored thread here so its hopefully easier to see, but when u do it id recommend using a color that matches better so ur stitches are more hidden. first put the needle thru the inside so that the knot is hidden

then pass the needle through like this, pulling as u go. try not to pull too tight or else itll end up weird and wrinkly! i still have some troubles making this stitch look nice, so dont worry too much about getting it Perfect! its perfectly ok if ur stitches show

once uve stitched up the little hole, tie a knot in ur thread and snip it off! now we really have a cube

set that baby aside bc now we r gonna make something else

[catmeme-moved]

cut out 8 lil pieces like this, sew the pairs together, and turn inside out. now u got feet!

repeat the process w ears and a tail in shapes or ur choice. mine's gonna be a kitty :3

[catmeme-moved]

sew on all the paws, ears, tail, etc using the same ladder stitch from earlier! i also added some spots to mine to give it a bit more character. u can add anything to urs!! the world is ur oyster

i used some embroidery floss to make a funny little face. if u dont have any, u can also stitch on some teeny pieces of fabric for a face instead

finally, give urself a pat on the back for making a little tiny friend!!! u did it!!!

if u make one, post it n tag it w #yarrowlook bc id love to see it! :')

To me Kermit the Frog is like one of those characters who’s every letter of the LGBTQ+ acronym at once based on who’s looking at him. Kermit is transmasc? Sure. Kermit is a lesbian? Okay. Kermit is a gay man? Why not. Kermit is transfem? I should’ve known.
