There’s a famous experiment where 4 year old kids are given a plate with a marshmallow on it and told if they can wait five minutes then they’ll have two.
Not much of a choice when you’re given two equal opportunity losers.
Classic! I was still crying... until 2020.
it's about self -control, supposedly...
or perhaps- in 'new-age speak' evidence of 'the scarcity mindset'-
as to the child that cried, such experiments by gaslight are indeed tiresome and frustrating.
(that said, if you eat two marshmallows you are doubly-fucked)
