Pretty cool project but something about the casual way the writer just wrote about manipulating and bullying his friends into doing free labor for him sorta struck me a bit wrong. It's really easy to take your friends for granted or to bulldoze them socially, and it's really easy for someone who's not so much the leader of a friend group to subconsciously feel like they need to go along with the charismatic plan-maker to stay on their good side and continue to be invited to group hangs. Not saying at all that that's what is happening here, but it just reminded me of some situations in my life like that (where I was the leader of a friend group and didn't treat everyone who depended on me as well as I should have, as well as the opposite scenario where I felt like I was trying to people-please the popular person in a group). I guess my takeaway is, I hope the writer also asks their friends what they feel like doing sometimes and goes along with their plans instead of just dropping their own plans into their laps.
