Becoming disabled, for me, was an education in many things, but sometimes I think it was elementally about relearning how to understand dependency, and how disability makes it impossible to ignore that we are ontologically dependent, knotted into each other and everything. It was an education in how time and debt are entangled, with how disability troubles capitalism’s unholy marriage of time and money, putting a person again and again into the condition of financial and bodily insolvency, where there is never enough time and nothing can be paid back.
