I feel like I get to pick one thing for myself, and it's her. A weird white lady I met by happenstance.

If you've ever told a person who's had to be bedbound for a period of time that you wish you could "just stay in bed", DO IT.
Stay in bed. For days. But don't get up if someone needs you to, or you get bored, or you get antsy. Don't do anything other than rest. Just lie in your bed, whether you need to get stuff done around the house or socialize or anything else "productive". You'll have to cancel on people, you'll disappoint them, they won't understand.
And if you're thinking, "well, i CAN'T just be in bed. There's stuff that has to be done - I have plans", maybe ask yourself why you assumed a disabled person doesn't have plans or things to do or desires.

why is religious Christmas imagery all so joyful and pleasant? where is the inherent horror of the birth of Christ? A mother is handed her newborn child, wailing and innocent. Her hands come away sticky. Red. Simply by giving her son life she has already killed him. He is doomed from the beginning. Her love will not save him from suffering. Because the thing cradled in her arms is not a baby, it is a sacrifice: born amongst the other bleating animals whose blood will one day be spilled in the name of what demands it. the night is silent with anticipation. Mary, did you know? That your womb was also a grave?

“People are inherently terrible” no!!! Have you ever seen a child wait for their friend while they tie their shoelaces? Have you ever known someone who would bring hurt squirrels and rabbits and mice to the nearest vet just so it doesn’t suffer? Have you seen someone grieve? Have you ever read something that hit your heart like a freight train? Have you looked at the stars and felt an unexplainable joy? Have you ever baked bread? Have you shared a meal with a friend? Have you not seen it? All the love? All the good? I know it’s hard to see sometimes, I know there’s pain everywhere. But look, there’s a child helping another up after a hard fall. Look, there’s someone giving their umbrella to a stranger. Look, there’s someone admiring the spring flowers. Look, there’s good, there’s good, there’s good. Look!!!!

Who do we know that did drugs? I got it!
Dick Grayson and Bruce Wayne are standing in the Batcave, looking over some data on the Batcomputer.
DICK: None of us have done drugs or made drugs, but we need someone who's versed in it. Who?
BRUCE (excited, sudden realization): I got it! Call Jason!
DICK: He blocked you again?
Bruce looks a bit sheepish, but quickly recovers.
BRUCE (defensive): You’re not calling him?!
Sighing, Dick reluctantly pulls out his phone and dials Jason’s number. Jason answers, but before Dick can say a word, Bruce suddenly knocks him to the ground and snatches the phone from his hand.
BRUCE: Are you still friends with Roy? We need to learn how crack is made. We’re tracking someone!
There’s a pause on the other end of the line. Then, Jason starts laughing—slowly at first, then breaking into fits of uncontrollable laughter. In the background, a weary sigh can be heard that isn’t Jason’s.
JASON (laughing, catching his breath): I’ll ask him. Hey Roy—
ROY (in the background, exasperated): Fuck you!
Jason, still chuckling, responds to Bruce.
JASON: I think he can help us.
BRUCE: Oh, thank God.
Dick, now back on his feet, looks at Bruce with a mix of annoyance and disbelief.
DICK: You could’ve just asked for the phone!
