when you spend most of your time in a relatively sedentary lifestyle, walking a mile can be a lot of exercise. for someone who wants a minimum of 12,000 steps a day, it seems like nothing, but for someone who averages maybe 1000 steps, it can take a lot of physical and/or mental effort. especially if that person is dealing with chronic pain or depression
I don’t know if I’m imagining it, but I think I can see joy in the eyes of the beaker walking up to the cameraman as they come to beat this shit out of them
