A comment on I wanna live an NPC life. Parent comment
- cut the grass -> robot
- weed the flowerbeds -> once every week, or no flowerbeds if you feel it's not necessary
- wash the car -> idk I wash mine every 6 months or something. Go to the thingy, put coin, wait
- cook dinner -> or not. You could choose not to have dinner at all, or one of those fine premade gazpachos with a bit of bred and an egg
- do the dishes -> mostly putting things in a dishwasher and removing them every few days
The thing is, having a mind mostly empty of this kind of thing is its own reward. Maybe your car is less shiny, but your inner experience more so.
