Laundry and dishes are much harder than Art.

And we had washing machines for years...

I mean I certainly agreed with the sentiment, but this is largely describing dishwashers, washing machines, and dryers, which were invented some time ago.

Part of the reason these take time is that a lot of folks are resource conscious (as am I). So we want the dishwasher to be efficiently loaded, the clothes to be dried on a clothesline if possible, the white/colors to be separated (increasea the longevity of the clothes), etc. Sacrificing all of these things makes these chores really very quii, if you can afford to have them all in your home.

And in fact, the cost of these things is relatively low


in my high COL area, it's not that people can't afford these things, it's that they can't afford a place big enough to accommodate them. Which is its own issue altogether...

Arc of a Scythe series, I want that to be reality

Overview of the world in the series (not necessarily the plot itself, no real spoilers):

Sentient AI is born and assumes leadership of Earth. It's existance causes the toppling of governments around the world, after the people realize the AI could do a way better job than the humans at running the world. Pretty much the only thing not left to the Thunderhead (the AI) is the death of humans. Humans have achieved immortality, and thus something needs to cull the population. Thus the scythedom is born, consisting of people chosen to pretty much legally murder people. The world is a utopia, everything is damb near perfect, everybody has what they need, there's no crime whatsoever, global warming is solved, there's no corruption or war, and people live long lives. The only issues, explored within the books, are the Scythedom left in control of the humans, and although to a much lesser extent, the lack of motivation of the human species. After conquering death, the people of this world don't really understand the art of the mortal age, with strong emotions based around love, death, and other such topics. You have a very long time to live, they don't really feel a need to acomplish everything in their short lives as mortal mankind did. There was also kind of a genocide of those born in the mortal age but uh... we don't talk about that... (genuinely wasn't talked about much in the books).
