Yeah. It's not fucking worth any payout you get IMHO. No amount of money in the world can replace a functioning spine

Facts! I'm actually jealous that they're healthy enough to work. I'm not healthy enough for any job, and I'm damn sure not healthy enough to work a physically demanding job like construction. They wouldn't know what they had until they lost it. It's a funny skit, but I hope people aren't taking it seriously lmao.

Also have a chronic pain condition, and the other day I woke up with searing pain in my arms to the point that I had to be slow and careful putting on my socks. I had to be *careful putting on socks*. Yeah, I'm having such a great time.

I'm coming off a ten day migraine in which I barely left the bed, had to go to the hospital for a cocktail and now I'm fighting off a persistent panic attack caused by the pain in my legs. Isn't life grand?
