Productivity Theater
Productivity Theater is the performance of being busy and productive without any evidence of actual output. Posts about '5 AM routines,' 'systems and frameworks,' and 'optimizing workflows' — but never about what those systems actually produce. The aesthetic of productivity becomes the product itself: the journal photos, the notion templates, the morning routine threads.

- System and framework worship without showing results
- Time-hacking and optimization obsession (the meta becomes the work)
