We don't DO anything anymore | Why convenience is killing us.

Have you noticed how everything around us has become… easy? From washing machines to smartphones, we live in an age where convenience is king. But what if this endless pursuit of ease is actually making us weaker, lonelier, and less capable? In this video, I explore how convenience has shaped our relationship with time, objects, and even ourselves. From the invention of writing and the washing machine to infinite scrolling and AI, I look at how technologies that promised to free us often leave us trapped in an endless cycle of passivity and consumption. Along the way, we’ll talk about: 📜 Socrates’ warning about writing and memory 🧺 How the washing machine reshaped work, leisure, and family life 📱 Why tech companies design products to hook us, not help us 👞 The lost relationship we once had with objects we used, repaired, and wore in 🕰️ The illusion of “free time” in the age of industrialisation and smartphones ⚡ The rise of “limbic capitalism” and the attention economy 🌿 Why friction, boredom, and doing things the hard way might actually make life richer This isn’t about rejecting modern life or going back to washboards and typewriters—it’s about asking whether a little resistance, effort, and discomfort might be exactly what we need to feel human again. 💭 What do you think? Has convenience made your life better, or do you feel like it’s stolen something important? Share your thoughts in the comments—I’d love to know. 💡 Resources 💡 Why Convenience is Killing Us:    • Why Convenience is Killing Us   Convenience is Destroying Culture:    • Convenience is Destroying Culture   The Lost Art of Doing Nothing: How the Dutch Unwind with Niksen: https://cdn.bookey.app/files/pdf/book...
