”These montages of neat bedspreads and stylized breakfasts imagine that such a routine would be calming, grounding. In reality, operating at the speed many of these routines describe would be absurdly strenuous, a blur of furious toweling-off, a mad rush to pull on jeans, an inhaled slice of hastily buttered toast. But time in these vlogs is already compressed, so why not allow for another fiction?”
