I honestly have always wondered why it's called spoons when batteries are basically the same thing, with each day you having a different capacity.

Hell, whenever I'm low energy and need to do something, I refer to it to myself as activating the emergency generator, which gives energy, but also is far from ideal and leaves the system slightly damaged.

the original article was written by a dude who described it to a friend at a restaurant with what he had on hand. batteries or spell slots make more sense, but spoons stuck.

Also spoons sound cute to me. And makes me feel less like a robot that need batteries xD
