Description

Here’s a detailed description of the comic:

Panel 1:

• A person asking another how they can be so relaxed all the time. The relaxed character explains they've discovered a recursion paradox.

Panel 2:

• The character continues, describing their daily routine of waking up and making a to-do list.

Panel 3:

• They add that the last entry on the list is always the same: "Leave at least one to-do list box unchecked."

Panel 4:

• The relaxed character explains the paradox: if they leave a box unchecked, they fail, but if they check all the boxes, they can’t check the last box. Thus, they can never finish their to-do list.

Panel 5:

• The character expresses a sense of freedom from desires, saying they've given up all hope and are free of the chains of desire.

Panel 6:

• The other character responds that this method would drive them to madness. The relaxed character cheerfully says that's the other key to happiness.

The comic features humorous dialogue about the absurdity of the situation, highlighting themes of procrastination and the paradoxes of desire.
