Something That Might Be Hard To Grasp Is That. Physically Disabled People Can Do Everything "right",

something that might be hard to grasp is that. physically disabled people can do everything "right", follow all the recommended programs from doctors and medical practitioners and lose weight and do this exercise and that diet and this and that and they still can stay disabled. they still can get worse.

and it's imperative to understand that. doing things this way can be soul crushing. it's difficult, if not impossible for some people. and many people will not be able to do things "right" and will stay disabled or get worse. some people might, accidentally or on purpose, make their disability worse themselves. and those people don't deserve to be disabled any more than people who you think doesn't.

we cannot, cannot assign a moral value to disability. disability isn't a punishment for doing right or wrong. it is not a judgement. there is no moral value associated with being disabled.

people you find wonderful will be disabled. people who you think suck will be physically disabled. people who had no pre-existing condition, who did everything "right" and were healthy before will be disabled. people who had absolutely no means to change their lifestyle, because of poverty or location or some systematic issue, will be disabled. and people will be disabled as a direct result of their choices.

none of that, absolutely none of it, is an indication of whether that person "deserves" to be disabled or not. none of it is a reflection of their moral character. disability is simply a neutral fact of life.

"I miss you"

Is it okay if I send those randomly btw? If you need me to stop I can, it's just easier to say than "I wish you were here because I feel so so lonely and I just want someone to hold me while I fall apart, or to help me walk through to the kitchen to grab my salt, or to play video games so I can watch and pretend like I know what's happening on the screen, or to tell me that it's okay to cry over nothing" without sounding like that's all you mean to me

So, in essence, black cats are chaotic good.

I tried looking for symbolism on cats and found very little about bad luck. I did however found a good bit about them being about independence, which i think still fits with Adrien.

It does, yes. Note that the cat miraculous doesn’t transform Adrien into any old cat though - it transforms him into a black cat. Black cats are odd - they vary wildly from culture to culture being omens of good luck or bad luck depending on who you talk to. It works out as Cat Noir being a hero - one who destructively does good things.

the main thing that puts me off of playing chess is that there is 2000 years of gameplay that hundreds of people with higher IQs than me have spent thousands of hours studying the history of, so much so that when i put the pawn forward they say “ah i see youre going for the bulgarian somersault” and then i try to take their bishop with my knight and they go “aw, rookie mistake, youve played the frenchmans cumsock, and in approximately 37 moves i’ll have won”
