I'll always be with you

you can’t choose to stop being in pain, but you can choose not to beat yourself up for it. you can choose to be kind to yourself, and not curse your body for being sick. it is doing the best it can, and so are you. it’s not your fault. you were unlucky, and the situation you’re in truly fucking sucks. but it’s not your fault and you don’t need to blame yourself. rest. have a cup of water. take your pain meds. pet your arm and say it’s okay, if that helps.

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.
