Spoons

undefined:

Spoons are used in reference to spoon theory, in which a person only has a certain amount of energy, spoons, to use for daily activities.

In the context of plurality, certain system functions (such as switching, co-fronting, internal communication, or even fronting for certain headmates) may depend on available spoons or even have their own type of spoons associated with them.

A system, sisasystem, internal group, or headmate may share or have individual spoons in any configuration.
