Health and ability is mostly about luck. It's not a direct consequence of making either good or bad choices. You can't always avoid disability by making the right choices, and we need to kill the widespread assumption that you can. Because if you think health and ability is fully within people's control, then you will assume that disabled people MUST be doing something wrong and/or that they are failing to do enough. And that just isn't true. This world isn't fair like that. People who do everything right can be severely disabled for life, just like people who never cared for their health can be fully abled for 85 years. Of course habits and lifestyle can affect health in some capacity, but it's mostly a game of luck and chance
If companies are allowed to sue you for losses during a strike, there is now no longer an incentive to not simply burn down your place of work.
Wednesday: *is being arrested*
Enid: Wow. God forbid women do anything these days.
Sheriff Galpin: Kid your friend-
Wednesday: She’s my girlfriend you intolerant shit.
Thing: H-O-M-O-P-H-O-B-E
Sheriff Galpin: I’m not- whatever, your girlfriend just landed four grown men in the hospital.
Enid: And… She looked good doing it.
Wednesday: They deserved it. One of them told me to smile.
Enid: You tell him baby.
Sheriff Galpin: You know what? I can’t with… whatever this is. She’s free to go and officially your problem.
Enid: Yay!
Wednesday: *pausing mid-escape and casually handing the sheriff broken handcuffs* Miserable-night Sheriff.
Sheriff Galpin: *whispering* I hate you.
Wednesday: *also whispering* I’m glad.
Enid: Hurry up babycakes, I need my cuddle buddy.
Wednesday: *smirking* Coming Amore.
You stub your toe and the mind control breaks.
Your power snaps from the shock and the hundred or so clones you’d been controlling disappear with a pop! You hold your breath as the steel they’d been carrying clangs loudly in the cavernous room. You’re the only one in this sector but that was loud. If by some miracle nobody heard that, surely your abductor will notice you’re free any moment now—
Devil Eyes doesn’t notice.
You cover your mouth with both hands, pressing so hard that your teeth creak. There’s a hysterical giggle struggling to claw its way up your throat. You’ve been shot, stabbed, and beaten, but this is what it takes to break Devil Eyes’ control? Your pinky toe throbbing after kicking a stray steel beam?
Fuck, that’s funny.
You breathe in through your nose slowly. Only when your lungs hurt worse than your toe from how much air you’re holding in them do you release your mouth. You breathe out in six quick bursts. One. Two. Three. Four. Five. Six.
You’re free.
Holy shit, you’re free! How long has it been? Six months? Eight? You know it’s not summer anymore, but Devil Eyes has had you working in the depths of his lair for weeks now and you’ve lost track of time. That’s fine though, you’re pretty sure you’re still in Arizona and there’s sunshine even in winter. Your breath hitches in your chest. The sun! Oh, the sun, you want to see the sun so bad and now you can because you’re free–
Don’t cry. Don’t make a sound. Assess. Act.
Escape.
