It's my pot and I'll stir it if I want to. If you're not careful, I'll stir your's as well!

Is this something that happened suddenly? If so, then maybe something. has broken. If it happened slowly over a period of time, then that is something completely different.
Just to get you rolling again, then as a ballpark figure I would set the toe in at around 3/32" to 1/8" until you can get it into an alignment shop.

I agree, just measure front and back until there even, then tow it in around 1/16th. But I would get it to an alignment shop asap to avoid further damage the tires.
