In Val’s defence, sometimes having the right tool *can* encourage you to do something more often.
Case in point: The guy behind the Technology Connections YouTube channel, after he started using the Sunbeam RadiantControl toaster. Because it senses “doneness” based on the *toast’s* temperature, it’s very consisten. Plus, it’s “Automatic Beyond Belief!™”, so it’s extremely convenient.
Honestly I did not expect to find a reference to Technology Connections in the comments section of a completed webcomic, but I am here for it. TC is great!
Capitalism. Advertising creates paranoia and anxiety, with promises that retail therapy will make us happy. And ads for finance (i.e. debt) that promise us we can have a better life.
There must be a better way to live our lives, a better way to organise society.
