One day, every platform freezes on a single clip: a cat batting at sunlight. Streaming stops, news halts, traffic quiets. The world watches the loop until boredom becomes meditation.

A billion thumbs hover, unsure if anything else deserves attention. Somewhere, the original cat yawns and wanders off, unaware it almost became a new calendar.
