Idling in the car gives me such tremdolor anymore. Among other things. A great and useful word!

Thanks @JessHealyWalton@twitter.com πŸ’š

Tremdolor: (noun, β€œtrembling pain” in Latin) vibrations that go from the external environment into your body, causing pain.

Example: Jess, wearing a prosthetic leg, to their kid on the other side of the room: β€œOi, stop stomping, it’s giving me tremdolor!”

While we're musing on pain...

Tryalgia (n): 1. pain incurred by cyborgs from tryborg imposition, assumption, or "helping." 2. anguish arising from one's own internalized ableism

Ex. "FIVE people suggested yoga today when I was venting. My tryalgia is off the charts."
