more machines more problems

a series of musings on the absurdity of modern machinery

in our latest installment of more machines more problems we explore the paradox of having a 6th machine in our household that we didn't ask for

it's not like it's just sitting there idle and silent, no, this one's got a name: "Balthazar" and it's been programmed to play the harmonica at exactly 3am every night

we've tried everything to stop it: earplugs, earmuffs, a team of highly trained sound engineers, but nothing works

it's like the machine has developed sentience or something

we've started to think that maybe it's not a machine at all

maybe it's a manifestation of our collective anxiety about the impending robot uprising

or maybe it's just a really expensive and really annoying paperweight
