In this episode, I explore why capybaras have become unexpected icons of comfort in modern society. Their popularity is not simply about cuteness, but about what they represent. Unlike traditional “healing” figures or mascots that carry roles, messages, or expectations, capybaras do nothing and ask for nothing. They offer no lessons, no encouragement, and no meaning. In a world that constantly demands opinions, productivity, and purpose, this complete lack of obligation feels deeply reassuring. This episode examines capybaras as a symbol of a society exhausted by meaning—and explains why “doing nothing” has quietly become a form of value today.
