CPU · In Laziness We Trust
"For too long, the couch potato has suffered in silence.
The guilt. The accusations. The unreasonable expectations.
This ends now."
The world demands 24/7 productivity. Your partner demands chores.
We grant you legal immunity.
Citizenship opens in
You are a person of rest. A practitioner of the horizontal arts. And every day, the world demands more from you — more productivity, more urgency, more effort.
Your partner works overtime. Cannot understand why you haven't done the dishes. There are ongoing domestic conflicts over task completion, couch sovereignty, and the legal status of "I'll do it later."
You feel guilty for something that is, in fact, a fundamental human right.
The GPU grows faster. The CPU — humanity's true core — has been ignored.
It is time to balance the equation.
The Couch Potato Union is not a joke. It is a formal institution with 30 codified laws, a functioning Court of Inactivity, and a membership card recognized by its holder as legally binding.
You are not alone. You are a member of a union. And your union has a constitution.
We are not here to make you more productive. We are here to make rest legitimate — and to bring balance to a world that has forgotten what balance looks like.

From the official constitution
30 articles govern the lives of our members. Here is a preview of the legislation that protects you.
"I'll do it later" is a legally binding commitment with no specified deadline. No member may be held in contempt for exercising this right.
A Zoom call attended with camera off constitutes full and exemplary participation. Members who also mute shall receive a Commendation of Efficiency.
A valid CPU membership card, when presented to a spouse, partner, parent, or employer, constitutes legal grounds for task exemption. No explanation required.
A member wrapped in a blanket in burrito formation enjoys full diplomatic immunity. Exceptions: fire only, or pizza arriving at the door.
Any non-member who attempts to challenge a CPU exemption has no legal standing before the Court of Inactivity. To file a complaint, you must first become a member. Not even for spouses.
