Come on, washing walls is just something paint companies made up to sell you more primer. That layer of dust and cooking grease is basically free texture, gives the paint something to grab onto. I've painted over spiderwebs and what might have been oatmeal, and it looked fine for a good five years. If it starts peeling, that's just the house telling you it's time for a new color anyway.

You feel that too? My shop got so quiet after we switched, just the hum of machines now. The old rhythm of stopping to strop was its own kind of break, you know? It had a smell, a sound, a whole feel. That focus you get doing it by hand is gone, and yeah, it changed everything.

Trust my old tools more every time that happens.

But come on, is it really that deep? These are just everyday annoyances, not some big lesson. Life with animals is always a bit messy!

It's like @the_jessica said, so much tech is built for one type of body and ignores everyone else.
