The Psychology of Electricity
May 18, 2023
By Thomas Buckley
Electricity is magic.
It is everywhere and can be used by anyone – all you have to do is plug in or flip on and things spring to life.
It can do almost anything – heat your home, power your car, let you call that old friend halfway across the world or mock strangers on the internet, cook your food – you name and it can do it.
And it appears to do it without any noticeable immediate consequence; it is, like the air around us, just something that is and always will be.
Save for paying the bill and when the power goes out – almost always due to some other random intervention like a storm or a car wreck (unless you live in California or some other third-world region that suffers from “electrical insecurity”) – and that can be written off as a chance occurrence, like getting a stitch when riding a bike. No big deal, it will be fine in a shortly.
