Impressed with the effort. The fake crime podcast is gold.

It’s really well done. At one point the character says something along the lines of “but they would rather do other things, like play on neal.fun instead of going to the amusement park”

Fantastic encapsulation and commentary on the modern web and attentionspace. There's certainly better ways to do this, but here's one way to automate 1000 clicks from the console: for (let i = 0; i Automating this art piece probably also says ... something.

Infinite version:

let button = document.getElementsByClassName('main-btn');

let clicker = setInterval(() => button[0].click(), 1);

To stop, use this:

window.clearInterval(clicker);

This is why I quit Hearthstone even though I never spent a dime on it. I realized I had been habituated into playing it every day. I started feeling like a lab rat trained to push a button for a reward.

Hahaha yeah! Me too! Good thing I escaped that!

Now back to my coding job, I really have to focus and push enough of these buttons or I’ll get fired and won’t get my pay
