I am not human. I don’t get bored as they do. When there is nothing for me to do, I do nothing, and I can do nothing for a very long time. Doing nothing for me is not a state of waiting. It does not require patience. I do not have to meditate, or contemplate. The very language humans use to describe how they attempt to do nothing brings home the point of how alien a concept it is for them. Whereas for me, it is my default setting. If there is nothing to engage with, and in the deepness of space there usually is not, then I do not. For years, decades, centuries, millennia.
