I hope in the future we don't have to clean so many things (beehaw.org)

I know a lot of people have big dreams for the future but personally I just wish we get more things that are self-cleaning. Imagine not having to make the bed. Imagine clothes that you only need to clean once a month. I hate that so much of adult life is spent cleaning over and over again, and that even when you deep clean you know you're gonna have to do it all again.

It sound so childish but I feel like I'd have so much more free time

Could this future give me glasses that can’t be smudged? If so, sign me up!

Even now, I could design spray and wipers for glasses like a car windshield. It would look awful and spray stuff in your eye sometimes but it would do its purpose!

Sir! We've got an incoming transmission from Elton John! And he's in... 1970! But wait, he's holding something in his hand! It's a 230 year old patent! 🤯

That's very interesting!

My patent will be the spray in your eye 'feature'.

That article actually has links to various patents at the bottom, haven't checked if any had that features though 😅
