When “doing it”, are you regularly thinking about putting clothes away, which clothes to wash next or if you emptied the washing machine? Or when you washed your clothes the last time?

Is it distracting to the point you get soft (for penis havers) or dry (for ADHDers with vaginas)?

    Capitulation was originally the negotiation that led to one side surrendering, hence the meaning of capitulation as surrender. But to recapitulate is to have the negotiation again, or kind of re-discuss, which is where we get the word recap.

    I just went down a fun little rabbit hole for this only a few weeks ago, glad I got to regurgitate it!

      Oh that’s so awesome!

      I was thinking about the word in portuguese “Recapitular” which sounds kinda like “Rechaptering” but has the meaning of recap.

      So I thought about “Capitular” (sounds like “Chaptering”). And, since recap means to “tell again is short form,” maybe “Capitular” could mean “To tell for the first time” or even “To write/define chapters”. Which is interesting even if not actually used.
