Here's a line from this book -- "Would you tweet the thought your thinking? If not, why are you thinking it?". I think that's genius stuff - funny on first reading, a bit unnerving and biting on reflection, and then funny all over again as part of a bigger picture. That's this book. It's a breezy read that has an underlying attitude and message about late-stage capitalism that will get you thinking. If only Marx had had a better developed sense of humor.

This book was very funny, which is as expected from Reductress. It uses a LOT of sarcasm to point out the ridiculous notions we carry about work, hustle culture, balance with our non-work lives, and self-care. It was very funny but very poignant. It made me think about how ridiculous some of my thoughts are about self-sacrifice for my work.
