The deity and/or deity of content have delivered onto us this gem. A woman brimming with excitement about how she is "cooking" with her kitchen robot. That's right, kids. Because every day we stay further from God, we now live in a world where the manual labor of making your own food is too much of a burden.

So much so, we need computers to do it for us.

Two things. As far as I can tell, this video is from April 2024 that Engagement-bait X-Twitter found, hence everyone having thoughts on it now. Also, this is a real item. I'm not going to link to it because it is an abomination. But rest assured, it exists, and there are other videos of people singing its praises. Perhaps this lady is one of them influencers (pronounced "in-flu-ence-rrrrrr").

The existence of a "kitchen robot" doesn't make sense. You still need to weigh and measure out the ingredients. You still need to add the ingredients. And you still need to clean all the parts out after. The only thing this machine seems to do is save you the trouble of having to a) read instructions, b) think as you follow those instructions, and c) use your hands to do things like "stir" or "whisk."

And all to save you the time so you can do what exactly? Stare at your phone and scroll for more of that sweet dopamine?

Cooking is a much-needed excuse to put the devices down—unless, of course, you're using them to play music in the background. Cooking and music go together like cheese and... really, anything you cook. It's not just about the food and the sustenance. It's about the process. It's about taking a break from everything going wrong in the world, everything we're bombarded with 24/7, and doing something for yourself or your family.

We're losing the importance of the process or the "journey" and want to jump right to the results or the destination and have computers -- or "robots" -- do the rest for us. I don't want to get all "paranoid about Skynet" or something that, at first glance, appears as trivial as this. But also, it's growing increasingly difficult not to.
