Don’t Panic

It’s recently been found that even hive insects rest. Bees will play with colorful toys. Ants sleep for about 1 minute but they do it so frequently it amounts to a few hours per day. Even trees take breaks.

robots require very frequent breaks! welding machines generally have it programmed in that they can’t run so long they melt themselves. ive overseen two different manufacturing robots now and each of them were fragile, finicky idiots that require constant maintenance and repair. they pause in between moves, in between jobs. you’re always keeping an eye on programming errors, on coolant levels, on heat. you’re always pulling bits of scrap out of joints, sweeping up debris, washing off nozzles and untangling hoses. and even then it snaps a chain and takes a whole morning’s vacation.

How the media depicts the Apollo 11 mission:

book Rocky is so hilarious because he is 100% done with grace’s shit all the time and yet he loves him so much

hmmmmm I'm trying to investigate where this dog desire is coming from, and I think it's because this year I've had awful mental health. like borderline suicidal at some points. and I think having a little animal that forces me to go on walks outside everyday would be helpful. I mean, it would also be nice if I could just make myself take a walk without an animal pulling a gun on me, but alas!
