Idle Hands
Doing Nothing Keeps the World Running — Literally.By Chris A. Piazza | Antherra™
Length1h 27m
About this audiobook
Rest is the extraction. The body finally stops and something else begins to run. Idle Hands is a world where stillness has been infrastructured — where your burnout is load-bearing, your collapse is currency, and the pause you earned is the system's most efficient input. Compliance doesn't look like obedience here. It looks like lying down.
