The full story
Mental Load Receipt is a free website that turns the hidden work of running a home into a shop-style receipt. You pick one job, such as a birthday party, add the hidden steps (noticing, planning and remembering as well as doing) with honest minutes, and send the total to the person who should see it.
In the maker's example, "just organise the birthday party" comes to 2 hours 25 minutes. The site also suggests how to raise it calmly with a partner. Its maker shared it in r/ClaudeAI's thread for things built with Claude.
