Problem Statement

The very engaging synonyms for thinking (e.g., "Frolicking") are actually a cognitive burden since they need to be read to be recognised. Over time, that cognitive burden becomes annoying.

A simple solution is to use the word "Thinking..." instead of all the synonyms. That requires less neurone for humans to process.

An even better solution is to use a "spinning cursor" either as a repeating GIF or just a succession of characters such s "/", etc. It's better because it does not require verbal human processing. It just requires a human image match and the animation facilitates that match.

Summary: Frolicking is wonderful for the FIRST day, after that, let people choose a quieter option that lets them think more about problems and solutions rather than Frolicking
