Think we should bring back REG as a term. It stands for Reactionary Exclusionary Gatekeeper. It's why every round of exclusionary discourse that denies a specific groups' oppression and places in the community follows the same rhetoric because regs are regs are regs. Deny the group faces any specific oppression for their identity, attack any and all vocabulary so they can't discuss it, say what they do face is really just misogyny/homophobia/transphobia, say they're incapable of recognizing their own experiences, say they're just desperate to be oppressed, and really oppressed the real queer people. Rinse repeate. Fall silent once the pendulum swings towards acceptance until a new target reveals itself.

People are rightfully talking about ace (and aro) exclusionists.

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.
