An Anesthetic Default
When I get home from work, I sit down on my couch and open my laptop. When I’m waiting for the next bus, I pull out my iPhone. […]
What’s worse, in this mode, I’ll put off anything I see that might take thought. Hard email? Leave it. Long blog post? Send it to Instapaper. But yay, hooray: funny tweet, clever picture, keep it going, friendly email, don’t make me think.
Don’t you know the feeling?
Also, that the phrase “Don’t make me think” could actually become a positive, non-ironic value for designers always scared the shit out of me.
